The Idea is to add premium British and Canadian armor with the RP-3 rockets
A Canadian 12th Manitoba Dragoons Staghound Armored Car Though this is one version their is another version with only 2
Why ? Is there not enough Artillery and Bomb spam in the game for you ? The Calliope, PzW 42 and the BM-8-24 are probably sufficient to serve as representatives for the various nations.
Touché but this one would only have 2 or 4 rocket to fire unlike some of the other armored vehicles that have more rockets to fire also my thought to balence it is thy cant reload the rockets in the feild but go back too spawn to refill rockets I also rely only see aircraft rocket spam and most of the time I only see the German Halftrack rocket launcher
I have the Calliope and I used it a lot when Normandy was still a campaign, but the issue you have is range and map size. Its hard to maneouvre the Calliope into a location where it can deliver effects and not be in direct line of sight of PzF / PzSchk or actual vehicles. Something always sticks out, and unlike some other teams, the Germans are pretty on point in flagging something as dangerous as a Calliope to their Air. The endstate is a quick death, more often then not just trying to drive into position to engage because of the retarded map design.
Whilst I would love to see more and more vehicles introduced into the game including the ones you suggest, the reality though its that they’re not that practical and until the map design and some of the Inf vs Armour imbalances are addressed in a more intelligent way, all these will do is contribute to map clutter as they get destroyed by Air or Inf AT spam that permeates the higher BRs.
Not much bang for buck sadly, for what would be a very situational weapon, assuming you learnt how to actually aim it. I’m not sure if you’re a WT player or not, but all that gimmicky shit is just that in WT. I have all those vehicles and its more of an unrealistic muck around to actually get the vehicle into a position to apply fire, than any gaming common sense would suggest in how you play your vehicle to the best potential.
TLDR - these so called specialized vehicles are just memes - they’re not efficient in applying their gimmick effects.
I would honesty want the Staghound one just due to it being more mobile a shoot and scoot vehicle with rockets and that would distinguish itself from other rocket vehicles and I would love to see the Canadians finally added to the game
Well, I think you’d find it very “hit and miss” pardoning the pun, you’d have to spend a good few hrs on the Enlisted range just to get you eye in on how to target those rockets.
On the Canadian issue though, I couldn’t agree more. I was actually hoping they would introduce them as Premium or Event squads into the Normandy campaign the way they did the ANZACs, SAS and the fucking Bedouins of all things (like WTF was that about ?) into Tunisia…
Definitely need some “Cannuck” stuff in game !!!
