here comes the lone allied voice...no storms are already terrors on the battlefield.
The Shreck storms are terrors on the battlefield, MP44s on the other hand are so expensive that if a player has them you'll know that he can only afford a fewer amount of units thus it's a good thing. When you play allied, it's like "hey that guy was stupid enough to buy mp44s for his stormies, free win yay!

plus any suggestion thread nug starts usually involves him being upset that he can't spam something the way he wants to and if said thing gets lowered or buffed then he trololol's it so no
lol if it was me other folks wouldn't say also that mp44 on storms is overpriced

Ranger smg's went down in price so should storms mp44's. I do think they're overpriced too, and need to be looked at.

soldier armor stats don't lie Smurf, and you can get cloak on falls also. If anything they are on same level with falls being slightly better.
But that don't have anything to do with this topic , and we discussed this earlier, so don't go offtopic with it idk why you brought this up again.

normal storms with out weapon upgrades should be lowered in pool cost, then there should be a separate storm unit that is like 10 pool, that can be upgraded with shrecks and mp44s (which mu should come down for) that way they arent spammed.
but either way in regards to pool costs devs keep saying they have SOMEthing planned to let us use more doctrine infantry.

One of the major issues here is that storms are in the same doctrine as the tiger, which only has the repair muni cost. So when you weigh that you can have a lot of muni's into storms + 2 tigers there can be some issues regarding relative strength.
I just played against someone the other day who had about 4 mp44 storms and it was a pain playing against him because you never knew where he'd pop up. He took out a vet 2 mortar b4 i even knew it was gone, sappers, atgs, etc and it wasn't until he strayed into a mg bunker that we were able to get rid of him.
so to say mp44 storms aren't terrors is laughable.

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

don't be a smart mouth. they can avoid those things and we were two brits, the only high detection units are recons and they can avoid those easily enough, or kill them with other units to let the storms go freely.
i'm not arguing this anymore, i've stated my case. I see enough of these things do really well to be against a price decrease. We all see what happened after kch price decrease, there are more kch on the field and now you want the same with storms?
the diff between m p44's and thompsons are that 2 mp44s on storms > 4 thompsons on rangers. so to compare the two is ridiculous.

slow moving cloaked storms can avoid high speed moving commando jeep ?
also brens do a fine job in uncloaking stuff.

MP44 pricing is only half the problem. BAR suppression makes a 150+25MU upgrade on infantry vs. infantry weapons a really bad choice…

lol wut?
2x MP44 is < 4 SMG on a Ranger squad.
Mp44 is not an issue, if someone wants to sink a proposed 70mu for MP44, 45mu for Bundle, and 25mu for Medkits on a unit (140mu) IT should rape your Mortar squad in the face. It should also kill your unsupported Recon tommies that will instantly knock it down to a 3 man squad.
Learn to play Tym. Stormies with Schreks should be a separate unit, Stormies with MP44/naked should be 6 pool.
FJ have similar HP after Soldier Armor modifiers, and gain an Ambush bonus. They also cost far less.

Tym is nicely ignoring the fact that Stormies with MP44 require some good play, a supporting t4, and a ton of resources.
Compare to Rangers with SMGs with a dual t3....
Basically, Tym is failing vs Stormies and wants to cry.
Actually, we should do a comparison. Stormies with Battle Hardened vs Rangers with Oversupplied and choice of second T3.
5 Thompsons vs 2 MP44, go....

Not only is the comparison incredibly poor because its hard to price the value of the cloak, but right now you dont even need to ensure the destruction of more a single allied at gun to more or less have paid for the 4 x mp44 storm. How hard is it to decrew and thus ensure the destruction of a single at gun with a cloaked storm squad?

Lol, why are you guys comparing elite assault troops with stealthy troops?
It's Tym who started this nonsense.

so you want to use mp44 squad which costs 150 MU to decrew atgs and then retreat them because this is their role ?
I can decrew 5 times ammount of atgs and mortars with sniper and live than with mp44 storms and die on 2nd try because there will be inf of some kind waiting.

Value of cloak comes in manpower already. That's why they cost 300 MP and not 20 more compared to grens.

Smokaz, a.bundle nade is all you need to decrew. MP44 is an over priced upgrade. Also, Storms are assault troops, instead of Fireup they get cloak. Both serve the same function, get in and decrew support weapons.
Also cost of cloak + hp is apparently 60mp that is already oasis for.

You're equally dense as Tym, Nug. My point was that a full 4 mp44 squad already reaches cost effiency by destroying a single At gun, both in manpower and munitions. Maybe people are right to say you shouldn't be here.

Are you saying its very much harder to do it with 2 mp44s? You only need 2 kill two men to make the last guy leave, thats 400 mp down the drain. And Who said anything about retreat? You use the storms until you can use it no more or its bound to die without causing any damage, retreating it.

In the same time.. for the same pop? Nay. And a 2 man storm mp44 squad can be incredibly useful for just decrewing atgs.

Bundles won't hit a moving ATG, nor does it ensure a 1 hit destruction. The 2 mp44 upgrade - when it comes to taking out support teams over time, is equally good.
Not gonna bother arguing further both AMPM and Nug should know better

So any other squad will 'reach cost of efficiency' if you will kill an atg.You can kill atg with a volk squad, does it mean they reached 10 times their cost efficiency? Sacrificing a 150 mu squad to decrew an atg is not cost efficient. I doubt that players leave their atgs in open field alone, and even if you decrew that atg squad, you will have hell on your storms in a matter of seconds and you will be forced to retreat them.
I'd rather send a gren squad and have same effect.

I want to play the same EIR fairy land as you where it rains with atgs and rivers flow with mortars and everything is undefended.

Smokaz, if the gun is not destroyed you must consider the cost of recreeing. In this case 1/2 a rifle squad. If you have time to kill the gun with MP44s then your enemy has super failed.
According to your logic a sniper that only kills 4 men, forcing 2 decrews before it dies is super efficient.
