is there some reason the SP isnt allowed to shoot units hugging it?  None of the Axis reward units have this problem...

hate the unit.

I dont understand why its 1 superheavy of the allies(might be heavy) and its got a glaring weakness like this.

its the only unit that has a major drawback that can be exploited.

You did seriously not just say this... I know you did, but I refuse to believe it.

Ok let me rephrase.

Why is such a unit similiar to the tiger ace and again the very few allied heavies have something like this?.

i know units all drawbacks that can be exploited but this thing cant even fight back.

Yeh if you guys wanna get technical like this.
The maus should have had a 7-10m min range due to its lack of depression.
I should have been able to just park 2 m10s infront a d behind it and just fire at will.

If your going to start balancing based on realism your going to open a whole other can of worms.
and I do t think we want that

If I'm not mistaken, the super pershing has superior damage and penetration to the tiger ace does it not? I'm gussing the minimum range was part of the reason for why it has 45 range, but since I did not make the unit I can't say for sure.

For what that unit does, it seems to make enough sense to me.

Except, we didn't design and implement it. We gave it a quick going over with that wave of reward unit balance changes a few months back and changed it's flank speed ability/AP round stun but besides that it's been relatively untouched.

Minimum range on anything but arty doesn't make sense, but then again... A 165 damage gun on a heavy tank with 45 range and the most fucked up accuracy system you've ever seen to get it to miss infantry consistently whilst still hitting tanks at 40-45 range also doesn't make much sense.

The reward units need looking at and the SP will get it's due just like everything else. If we keep them fancy as fuck and better than vanilla stuff then they are liable to see some price increases to reflect it. EG the Slugger being the most cost efficient AT piece in the game, that thing could easily be 400 FU in it's current state and still make sense.

However, they'll all get looked at, and most will get statistic and price changes.

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.
