I don't know, i could ask them.

Don't say me that you're so a bad player  :o! Seriously, for me it took maybe one day to learn all units and possible tactics/strategies. If you want, i could help you. I could just teach you some primary tactics.

Well I've only played against the comp so far. But I just want to know small details. For example rifles work better close range vs Volks. Or 1v1 a Tiger will win vs a Pershing. Things like that. And also the play style is much different :P

For me the playstyle is the same as vanilla, since these two fractions act similar to vanilla races (kind of mix).

Examples for MC:
Milita works only good at close range (with upgrade also at medium range).
Riflemen work at every range.

Would be quiet cool, if you could return to Balance forum instead of playing MC all the time.

People should be free to play what they want, when they want and how much time they want.

I'm sure that Dzierzan will not neglect EF.  ;)

@Desert_Fox

Of course i will not ;).  But true, i was a little "offline".

@Cat Fishy

In somehow they should, since they are primary (nondoctrinal) infantry unit. Remember they are not vanillla riflemen.

I forget the name of the 2nd type of non doctrinal infantry China gets but I assume they work like Grenadiers? (4 man squad, more powerful).  think they are regulars or something ???

They are roughly equal to the American Rifle squad. Of course by the time they hit the field the rifles gain 1 vet level by killing Militia.

I am trully sorry about all the trolls on your forum. There are a few good ideas and so many bad ones.
Ostheer is a new German faction for this mod.
It will be done when it is done.
Keep mapping and modeling.
Tell a friend about EF.

No, he means that in forum you can find a lot of suggestions, but most of them are crappy. Most of people are talking about balance, but they don't post replays, you know, the theory itself is not the best, you need to prove that you are right or something kind of.

And about trolls, there are maybe two. Devs said that we should ignore them, because for stupidity they cannot ban.

Basically...



Riflemen - Good at all ranges.
SAWs provide a massive boost to DPS against everything, at all ranges. M203s are good against blobbed and garrisoned infantry. AT4s are good vs. light vehicles, or for finishing off heavier ones. They can also be equipped with frag grenades (same as vCoH), smoke grenades (self-explanatory), thermal goggles (increase to sight and detection radii), and laser designators (can be used to mark targets).

Militia - Can beat Riflemen at short range, bad at long range.
Type 81s gives them decent long range damage, at the expense of short range damage. They can be equipped with doctrinal ordnance (incendiary mines, anti-tank mines or booby traps) or Molotov cocktails, and can camouflage with the Asymmetrical Warfare doctrine.

Regulars - Beat Riflemen at long range, mediocre at short range.
The Type 88 upgrade gives them a further boost at long range, and allows them to counter-snipe and pick off other important targets. They also come with frag grenades by default.



It's also worth mentioning that although PLA Engineers are basically vCoH US Engineers in terms of combat performance, US Combat Engineers in the mod are four-man squads that are surprisingly effective at long range, and can hold their own against units like Militia if used properly.
