KV2 is horrible

[guynumber7]

honestly, it is. I was facing aganist the AI who were spamming hetzers and pz4s and some infantry and it just got raped. the armor on this thing is abysmal and a pak can kill it in like 3 shots. the gun also shoots why too slow and does shit damage to vehicles, altho i guess its good aganist infantry.

[CerealKiller]

Yep but not only that, the whole urban combat doctrine is silly underpowered compared to the other two super doctrines.

Then try to keep it just out of harms way, its no worse than a StuH and functions like a better one of those. Dont send it towards tanks, its not designed for that.

[guynumber7]

dude, but its armor is worse than a stuh and its slower. worse turnign turret, and for the arc it shoots in its range sucks. not to mention its a 4 point end tier unit, where the stuh isint. and it does the same damage as the stuh.

It 3 shots a panzer command.  It better die fast.

Oh, so its an anti base unit. Well good luck getting it to an enemy base cause of all the things i just said.

[luz777]

I managed to get mine to the enemy base, by that time in the game you should have plenty of mortars and IS-2's to take out any potential threats to it. It probably will suck if you leave it out undefended though.

I had a Kv-2 that killed 4 enemy vehicles and 18 infantry. the armor is pretty good too.

[BrandenburgKommando]

It is great for knocking out German emplacements and defenses making gaps for your infantry to break though used in conjunction with your Expert snipers artillery it is a good doctrine.

[Razz]

Up the Armor just a little.

It's great against buildings, bunkers and infantry.

[Soul.j]

you already have magical commander arty
sniper arty
truck arty

SUPER motar howiser, and your still worry about bunkers?
wtf~ you want to make bunkers paper?

3 shot's from a pak and it's dead? Well i last called in 2 kv-2's against 3 hard cpu's and they nailed like 1 entire base with only little infantry support. The armor is pretty good and the gun is like that one from a stugh. But still i think the Urban doctrine is the most Under Powered..

well, comparing the KV-2 to these tanks is not quite fair that's why i think it is ridicullous to put it even in the game lol.... hiostorically seen, in 1942 the KV-2 was already out of service when the Germans introduced Panzer IV and Hetzer. That's why the KV-2 has no chance against almost all german tanks that came after 1942. its armor was not able to resist german anti tank guns and the 152mm was more a large calibred mortar than a howitzer. for example, the ISU-152 had the same caliber but it was a very long howitzer gun while the KV-2's gun was more short so it had a much lower velocity. It could barely break the side armor of a Panzer 4 not more...

[SquirrellyWrath]

At this point it is still a super unit.  Entire squads are knocked out by it in a single shot.  So what you actually have to support it. 

[Zerstörer]

KV2 is a very powerful anti infantry/Anti building unit...it's not AT really. Its quite resilient too but don't expect it to be an IS
