KV-2 Spam

[Panzer4life]

Ok, I was playing as the Werh. Blitzkrieg against Easy CPU Soviet Union. They went for Urban assault. I figured fine, I will mow down their inf. with machine gun bunkers and take my time to capture points. I end up fortifying all my posistions so no Russian inf. cam knocking on my door. I was ready to capture some more positioin (I had a knights cross level 3, Tiger tank level2, a Pak, a super stug, two Pioneers, one of the assault inf, and a mortar crew) when i saw four Kv-2 attacking one of my position. i had to attack their base right then so to draw the KV-2 next to my Tiger and Panther. After losing my Panther and getting two Panzers 4, I killed all but one. And I won the game. So I ask, why aren't Kv-2 limited to one or two at a time for each person? They are really powerful, just inaccurate.

There is no such thing as spamming something the costs 750 MP, if anyone gets that many without you doing something about it you are doing something wrong. It was kinda rare IRL though, roughly 260 built to the IS-2s 3850. However if you want to push this point we should start talking about the roughly 40 ostwinds that existed along with only several hundred whirbls, the basically non-existent pershings, and the only couple dozen t-34 calliopes. Even though I have KV-2 "spammed" against bots I would doubt it would work against people and it is fun but not tactically sound, a 2 or possibly 3 tank limit sounds good.

Unfortunately KV-2 is the wort possible tank Soviets have. It`s slow, inaccurate, easily destroyed by any (and I must emphasize that fact - ANY!!! ) anty-tank weapon, it costs more then 2 mortars...
I`ll just name one situation, my KV-2 got engaged with lvl1 grenadier squad with 1 panzershreck, KV-2 fired some half a dozen shell`s and failed to destroy even a single grenadier. Shell`s were falling right in the middle of Gren. and they would just keep shooting the shit out of KV.
On it`s last legs with 10% health it managed to kill one Gren but got destroyed few seconds  later.
DEFINITELY doesn't worth that MP.

Agree, the KV-2 needs a slight accuracy buff.

I agree with everything said here. The KV2 is horrible and i made a thread about it. iTs basically a slightly buffed StuH that costs 750 mp and is an end doctrine unit. not worth it and dies too fast.

I could live with every part of KV-2 JUST if they give him the damage of mortar. Then, at least it could do some real dmg before his (premature) death.

I think the damage is fine... I had mine take on a Panther and win.. barely... the only thing that the KV2 needs is an armor buff.. it was known for having shells bounce off of it...repeatedly
