Some info on UK faction of the upcoming Balance mod

Posted by on

First news posted on this mod :)

Today I'm gonna tell you about the major buffs for UK:

25 pdr

In MoW this gun was a nice addition to UK early/mid game. Tho due to its low arc and range it meant that this gun was very situational tool and its usefulness solely depended on map. This mod gives this gun a higher arc and better range (190 in-game meters), meaning that small emplacements and entrenched infantry are gonna be in a world of pain. While it wont be a great counter to heavy AT guns and howitzers, it's still gonna be way more useful. Also comes attached to Universal carrier.

6 pdr

From small and pity AT gun to a real tank killer, 6 pdr now packs way more punch. It's more powerful than ZIS2 and weaker than Pak40 and M5, so it's realistic and tanks like Crusader and Churchill should be used more often.

Land mattress

This immobile firework shooter costs 70 pts in MoW. Having in mind that other factions have mobile and more powerful rocket artillery for much lower price it clearly makes no sense to keep its cost at 70 pts. In this mod price has been lowered to 55 pts and now it comes with Universal carrier too.

Archer

Slow, turretless and with no way to protect itself against infantry, this tank destroyer costs 38, only 2 points less than Achilles- a tank destroyer better in every way. Since nobody ever used Archer, it now costs 30 pts and it should be UK equivalent of Hellcat.

Cromwell

While it still can't fight other medium tanks of its class (Panzer 4 G, T34/76, M4A1 Sherman), it now has a speed to get out of trouble fast. Now it's just as fast as MoW Hellcat and it's perfect for quick response tasks and flanking.

Centurion

Probably the worst heavy tank in MoW, it could barely beat a Panther and fighting anything heavier was simply hopeless. Its frontal and side armor has been increased and now it's gonna be a tough opponent to other tanks of its class.

That's it for now. Stay tuned for news on other factions and playable beta that should come out tomorrow!
