tell me, which additional changes broke it?
Well for starters.. the veterancy tables were changed, stun assault grenades, Reloading bugs(Relic fuckup) on the Puma and Armored cars(yes this is relevant if there's a PE and Wehr player in game) Price reductions on Panthers.. price reductions on the Stuka and Nebelwerfer.. Even the fact that the Nebel doesn't suck now.
All of these things and more have contributed to the current change in the Pak38. Yes, I agree that it's a little beyond what I had in mind as a change, but I'm sure that's a temporary fix, as no one currently likes it. The fact is that we had quite a number of suggestions to correct the turnover rate of Americans and as far as our meeting was concerned, this is the best change that can be made for now.
And no this change does not incur a price reduction to the Pak gun, it's effectiveness is really high. Besides.. now you got all those cute and cuddly offmaps.
