RE: Discussion number 1 on the Alt oob
Just a follow up to this since it was brought up here, I don't think I will be changing the TD defense ratings -- they seem to be fine with the McN calculations.
I ran a few tests today and a 21 vehicle ISU-152 TD unit (one of the best TD units in the game, besides the Jagdtiger) assaulted an undisrupted infantry unit, unsupported, barely causes a loss of two men but at a loss of 1 or 2 of these massive TDs on avarage. Of course the situation varies greatly from case to case, depending on size of infantry unit, quality, attack and assault ratings etc, but the point was to make sure that these late war TDs were not "assault behemoths", which they aren't by any means. The verdict? Keep the TDs supported by other units and they are very powerful indeed. If they stray away by themselves to hold territory then you should assault them with infantry if possible.
