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.

This seems excessive. Whats the reasoning?

Really? In its current form? Is a 40 % speed reduction really big enough to make 300hp worth of mobile repairs free?

P4J moving to TH?


Im assuming all the doctrines being made free are becoming player upgrades to reduce UI clutter, or are they staying a purchases?

Mobile mechanics wont give additional repair kits, it will only give you movement on the 2 repair uses in kits. It also wont apply to IHTs anymore. So I honestly don't think it being free is a huge deal fir being a single unlock

IST lockdown nerf is result of lockdown changes we made from vCOH, which make it a little bit overkill. (+ combos with moving lockdown)

And units having a 75% moving accuracy bonus is just... dumb.

That would be the plan but I'm going to duck because volsky might throw a shoe at me

Fair enough. Just to be sure tho, if our lockdown reload has been buffed compared to vcoh, it is because our base IST cannon reload was nerfed when it got the 40 base range. Ideally, the current sherman reload lockdown IST should be the same as the vcoh lockdown IST in terms of range and reload.

The IST always had 0.35 reload in lockdown.

However, the vCoH IST has 0.5 acc vs inf (0.75 for us), as well as extra range, and a better projectile that clips less on rubbish on the map. It's also not too difficult to get reload buffs on the IST. Overall, we thought it'd be better to just slightly tone down the DPS of a locked down IST (from 3x to 2x) rather than put in accuracy and range debuffs to re-create the vCoH RNG machine.
