I have lots of barred rifles in my company so that my shermans are immune to schreks. I do also have mine sweeper engineers so that my atguns can countersnipe, I do even have lots of ap hmgs so that my halftracks can build emplacements.
I can't tell if your English is just bad or if thats sarcasm... engineers and At guns are related how... and halftracsk and buildings are what? |

He's saying that BAR riflemen won't help you vs a shrekblob.

I think he's saying he has a lot of BARs which makes his shermans immune to shreks, presumably by suppressing them.

You should improve your logic. |

I don't understand how BAR rifles will effect the hit rate of shrecks at any range, all you are simply suggesting is that if you bring X unit with your sherman you can kill the shrecks faster... but it doesn't matter how fast you kill them if they still manage to land a hit or two at you.

Perfil, I think that Bubz was being sarcastic. Just a thought.

Sure, but if double shreck grenadiers kill sherman and BAR riflemen kill double shereck grenadiers It's not diffcult to understand why, BAR riflemen can help your sherman. |

...Which has nothing to do with this thread. Consult the first post for details.
I think you missed Bubz sarcasm twice in this regards. Though the second part may have been unintentional in Bubz's part.
*edit*: Sorry if I sound short in temper today. I just went to the vCOH forums, saw two good threads degenerate into imaginary unit combinations in less than 24 hours...it was annoying.

Sarcasm should just be kept off these forums, Half the people here are not English as a first language so speak it poorly. The other half are English and speak it poorly, which leaves the last half to be bad at math.

Ok, so we have acknowledgment from a Dev that everything is the same as retail, but I have just tried for an hour and I just cant replicate the accuracy shrecks have in EIR. And it's not that hard to test with the cheat mod, just attack move a shreck squad towards a tank and see if they reliably hit. Idk, mabey it's my mind playing tricks on me, mabey this will all be remedied when we can strafe the blobs apart, but isnt it worth looking into to make sure that this isnt bugged? I mean if lt.apollo can sudgest PE can buy sprint, then i can ask for a definite stat confirmation.  |

Its a 35% hit chance, once that is rolled it homes in till it hits something.

We've all seen those homing shreks before too, where the shrek goes off at a tank that isnt yet out of your sight range but by the time it is your shrek has already gone off and tracks it until it hits :p Its a game of dice. |

Your best bet against schrecks with shermans on longer distances is by positioning the sherman so that there is an object between the sherman and the schreck squad about to fire. (Schrecks have a bad tendancy to hit fences, etc on their path rather than shooting over them)

Going back and forth around a corner works too.

I think axis fanboy's need to stop telling me how to use my shermans as my micro is very up to par
It's a 35% chance to hit at long range but it's acting like the medium accuracy modifiers of .75 are being applied instead.
I have shrecks not penetrate more at long range than they miss at long range.

This is true, not only schreks but also atguns will tend to hit the object, but guess what? Shermans too... No way, your best bet to use a sherman without OBM is to run dudes over or suicide those units, lawl. Smokaz can tell you I really love shermans. |

Really, it feels to me like schreks miss a hell of a lot at long range, more than they hit even. Mine aren't accurate, and you can ask Nevyen how accurate his were the other night (failed to hit anything besides dirt). I think its all in our perceptions, when your tank is low on health it seems like everything is a)doing too much damage b)too accurate c)penetrating too often |

Haha every time time I put a schreck squad into a building if the first enemy in sight is a tank the first seems to always hit even at maximum range. But this could very well just be perception. I just starting taking note about it when someone brought it up before.

As a side not, can I buy schreks for my FJ.
When they capture a couple it becomes epic AT, with Ambush bonus to accuracy and damage!
