Honestly when I use HE units, I just use the main gun 80% of the time, you hit more often that way. I only use HE when I'm firing over something, or if there's a blob. Too much of a gamble using the HE rounds imo.
Also you try a pak or two or panthers vs HE shermans? they won't be a problem. even if they pop smoke you'll probably still hit them.

I like how the Tiger Ace can switch between AP and HE rounds. Maybe that would be a good replacement for the sherman?
edit:
It does have a toggle, but I'm talking more about a splash increase rather than the traditional regular and KABOOM

Make HE toggle buff increase splash an appropriate amount rather than give it a semi-stuh shot.

It used to. The first incarnation of HE rounds simply upped the splash radius of the rounds be a sizable factor, whilst reducing penetration.
It was horrendously OP. Why? Making Sherman or Pershing splash much bigger than it already is just fucks infantry over. The only way for enhanced splash to work is there to be an element of randomness involved - Such as a round taking time to fly through the air and not having perfect accuracy where it lands. Rolling hits with splash enhanced rounds just destroys everything, including support weapons (Read: Paks too) from the front in one round.
Just imagine Tiger/Tiger Ace HE rounds having pin-point accuracy.

I mean I know Obama was the first one in EiR to get a card. and tbfh the Race card is pretty OP. but Romney has the K.K.K., those guys seem to camo anywhere. So OP units from both sides.
At the end of the day, however, stormtroopers finally got the anal invasion with a cactus they have richly deserved for years.

Just for the record, no significant changes were made to basic axis vs allies balance in the last year or so. Potential doctrine imbalances and veterancy discrepancy are however no doubt playing a significant role in forming this perception of yours. (Together with general inexperience and the fact that you are more likely to fight better allied players than you are better axis ones)

however... this was just to give an statement of my first impression playing eir since a long time(some month). and its fact, faust are nearly useles for me. only to hit very low armored units. so using them means u have to wait until u can use it in a worthy way and that doesnt mean against any armoured unit. and the tiger... even when i hit a position where 3-4 of a squads are standing only 1 dies or not even one dies... in addition comes the very high reload period wich would be no problem if he could get 1-2-3 in one shot by guarantee. but as i sad... sometimes he hits and not even one falls to the dust.
but i could be wromg and i dont want to force anyone changing especialy this. i just wanted to mention - something have to be changed there.

The tiger, as a base unit, has... literally remained completely unchanged over the entire time I've been here. It has not had a single change done to it. Now, stuff like IMBA(Improved Barrels) was removed, and there's no more of the old HEAT rounds - but the tiger itself has not been changed.

If other things were changed why he was not changed also ? |

Because you can't fix something that ain't broken. Time has proven that the base unit is fine

So if allied units are better now and tiger lost stuff, wouldn't an logical approach dictate that tiger will perform worse now resulting in people noticing it and wanting to make tiger better so it can face it allied counterparts on a equal term thus changed environment equaling change in style of gameplay which results in a tiger that cannot perform it's old role because the game it was designed for no longer exists thus resulting in a tiger that is bad for current meta. |
