Let's take Berlin Outskits-1945 for instance. Do you know how absolutely aweful that Maus tank was on this fucking map? There is nothing more frustrating than going over that hill with a IS2 and getting oneshot by some campy fatass somewhere in the background that only dies if you hit it multiple times with high caliber canons because on this narrow map you can't for fuck sake make use of some kind of strategic flanking. Meanwhile it gets repaired all the time by a lovely Bergetiger. The best is that when you complain about this, guys who mostly play axis then tell you that you need to do teamplay in order to win. Laughable! As if axis would do any awesome teamplay to win this map. For them it's just camping.

Concerning Westwall:Westwall last time was really weird. I must say I much more prefered the first version of this map where allies have to climb up way further to another flag. As I remember correctly allies have from the beginning 1 normal tortoise + 1 flame tortoise (and that's fucking okay. The flame tank cant kill any tiger from distance!).
But after flag 3 gets captured suddenly allies receive another pair of tortoise which I think is really too much. They serve as infantry spawn points aswell as the first pair of tortoises

Experimental tanks and weapons of any kind no matter what team use them are completely okay as long as beforementioned balance of attacking - defending - counterattacking isn't damaged.

Concerning A day of Zitadelle:Since when is the Ferdinand removed from axis spawn? Since update 0.61 ? I think the Japanese mappers did this change because on a few occasions my experience was that the map ends with an unbreakable front of heavy tanks that allies just couln't break at all. Actually this has never been the case on our server with our player numbers. So maybe switch the new panther spawner back to Ferdinand (as long as respawn time is adjusted to the old value).

Concerning Op. Varsity:To be fair allies indeed won this round on Varsity and I would admit not to remove everything axis have. But still the Maus is displayed on so many other maps and I hardly see what justifies its existence in this townfight while it appeares on so many other levels.

Now I would suggest to just replace it with something else.
OR:
Somehow replace these Tiger tanks.

Battle over Hokkaido:I just saw following SSM balance on Japanese forum and thought we could apply it too, as Japanese always struggle to win on this map.

Decrease japanese Tiger spawn time from 6 to 2 minutes
New vehicle balance:
IS-3 → IS-1
IS-2 → T-35E-95
SU-85 → SU-122P
KV-85 → KV122
T-34/85 → T-34-85(43)x2
PTRS Carriers → Valentine II\

Bombing the ReichGerman big ship (don't remember the name), should spawn only once.

Allied ship (also don't remember the name) should have more time on respawn (I enjoy the almost insta-respawn, but I know isn't fair)

And now I know you can do some changes, I'll try to pay more attention so I can comment a lil more here. tongue

Way to Paris needs very desperatly some balance. All that superheavy stuff on russian side is still in there, but french don´t have even a single Tortoise.I really can´t figure out what the sense of this map outlay should be ...
additionaly the AMX 13 is iconed on minimap as a heavy tank wacko no idea why ...
And ... really french have a 6 pounder as AT gun at the first flaggs, a 6 pounder!!!! They must really feel fooled to run with that against a IS3 or IS4 dry its a long barreled called canuk or anything like that but neverthess. With that tank outlay on russian side at least a 17 pounder is necessary, don´t think it will be much helpfull, but really ...

Eastern BlitzAdd artillery battery to Polish main base so the blue team can prepare the counterattack better when all flags have been taken by the Germans.

Suomussalmi-remove 1x KV2 and 1x T35. when the Russian team has an overall K/D ratio of 2:1, and a single guy in a KV can get a K/D of 49:0, you know it's a little unbalanced. (yes, I am salty)
-add a few T-26s for russians

Quote bubu ()I would remove one of the two, either KV2 or the T35, the T35 being the better option for removal. In wikipedia there is (correct me if it is wrong pls):

I would rather replace both T-35s with T-28s, which were indeed used in Winter War and are much easier to take out. Also, two KV-2s are overkill.

Quote marduk ()
I suggest to remove the T-35 due to historical accuracy and add two mg-kits with anti-tank mines for the Finns.

Finns don't have MG kit with anti-tank mines, but I think British kits with Vickers or Lewis can be used instead, though I'm not sure it will have positive impact on balance.

Way to ParisCan you set the uncap flags to 1-4? I think that is not fun to have to hold only 1 flag when they get the 5.
And/or set the respawn of the tanks that appear on the last Flag (JT modified and ARL 44 I think), cuz they only spawn once.

Please increase the spawn time of the allied ships on bombing the reich. Actually there is a constant ship spam axis have to defend. That skipps the whole gameplay from airmap to navalbattle

I suggest to put in the map Nordwind 2 towed 17 pounder AT guns (don´t know actually if available) maybe it´s possible before this weekend.

As a side note, I tested Seelow Heights and Battle of Britain (objective & conquest) all for more than 30 minutes on the test server and they worked fine. Shall we try them some time on the normal server?

Replaced Maus with Jagdtiger

ReichsbannReplaced Maus with Jagdtiger

Me like. Also have you uploaded the Battle of Britain SSM?

What about El Alamein?

reichsbann is only map were maus is any good

the word you're looking for is "invincible"

I´m playing really very less on allies side, but I managed to destroy the Maus once with the calioppe from top of hill (ask E-3, maybe he remembers) there is also a T95 on that map and a P51 fighter bomber remote pick up kit. So it depends on the players to act smart enough and take that Maus out.
