While vehicle crews are part of the USF's identity, it can make early game units difficult to balance due to their ability to self-repair. Smoke no longer shares a cooldown with the main barrageĭue to the high reinforce cost of Vehicle Crews who lack any combat potential outside Elite Vehicle Crews, we are slightly lowering their reinforce cost.

Smoke will also no longer share a cooldown with the primary barrage to give the M8 more options. The changes will allow it to maintain pressure on team weapons with improved accuracy. The M8 Scott is receiving further improvements to its barrage capabilities. Smoke now shares a cooldown with Frag Grenades This change puts the Lieutenant's smoke ability in-line with other units that have non-lethal smoke and fragmentation grenades. Veterancy 3 now provides -33% ability recharge value is multiplicative with veterancy 1 Veterancy 1 ability recharge from -50% to -25% Their abilities would recharge too quickly in the early-game, allowing them to get multiple AT/Frag grenades off in quick succession. The Veterancy 1 ability recharge rate of Riflemen is being adjusted. At 110 population, the USF player will be penalized -100 manpower until they go below 110.When the player breaks 110 population, they will take a further manpower penalty.

The USF are the only faction that can reliably break a population of 100 thanks to their ability to decrew their vehicles. Previously, grenades had a chance to not penetrate a mine.Įxplosive grenades - Mill Bombs, Grenadier Rifle Grenades, Bundles, Light Gammon, etc - will always detonate mines.

The applies to both Ostheer and OKW variants - the Command variant has been excluded from the previous changes.Ī minor change to allow all infantry grenades to reliably destroy land mines. With the increase in base accuracy, we feel the Panther does not require an additional boost to accuracy when firing from a stationary position.
