Minus the overlord buff. Do people like the american officer?

Cant believe theres a T3 that decrease reload speed by 10%. That seems useless. Reload speed.... of an officer of all things. Not a tank, not less acc. received or no damage buff. Reload of an officer.

But they are tough, and descent price, and low pop. Can they be used as a blob? Are they any good at killing.

I used them alot for the overlord thing, they didnt get too many kills, wish tehy kepy concussive strike. But what if like 5 together? They dont suppress at all i think. Can they be useful like that?

Reload of the troops around him... Did you seriously think HIS reload was going down?

Umm I dont think him blobed does much VS inf.

Your supposed to use concussive strike to smoke the MG's of the enemy before a assault with a ranger/engieflamer/riflemans/sherman

well the concussive strike is gone. Its just smoke screen.
Ya i seriously thought it was just for him. That was why i was like WTF.

I dont think anyone really tried running a 3-4 unit US officer. I dont got the balls to try that. Just really wondering. They arent pussies..so maybe they can do something.

Could the US Officer PLEASE get his off map name changed to smoke screen so players are confused XD

Concussive strike sounds like the old terror officers offmap, which by the way was a cool off map Cool

confused me for a while. Like i was dropping smoke on the bad guys thinking. Damn Axis HP is too freaking high to kill them. Then someone told me it was just smoke. I think they are called command squad or something.

Weird unit. If radio man dies. U lose smoke ability. Actually that seems more fitting for the concussive strike. Instead of having one super unit they should have the officer and radio man as well. I mean their call in is way worse.  If i want smoke i use mortars. The current call in takes like a good 10 seconds.

The -10% reload is great when you pick up schrecks, RRs, LMGs etc.

Yeah, the "Concussive Rocket Strike" ability name is very misleading. At first, when I deployed an officer, I was like "I get a free concussive rocket strike? Oooooooh this will be a good day!" and I called it down on some MG. Then, when the "rockets" started spewing smoke all over the place, I was like "WTF!?!? This isn't what I not-payed for!!!" and ended up killing the MG with a Sherman instead.

Officers as a blob dont fare too well, tank/LV food and they get crit'd by flames damn easily thanks to the heroic armor. I have  just 1 that I just micro the hell out of and it works fine.

I want to ensure we have a 100% decision on the process before we do the wipe.
If not, then I wipe, then someone gets something they shouldn't, then it gets abused, then the shit hits the fan and then I ban shab.

Well the American Officer blob is quite a terifying prospect with crit kills. I found a good video of this sort of effect:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dkvvnkcb51M

That video is hilarious, they manage to kill several blobs of grenadiers and volksgrenadiers, kill an infantry halftrack, and decimate a building in the background (near the end during halftrack fight) with stray shots. They truly earned the title of Rambo Officers.
