with its arty gun? another thing, why is the Brit Arty line
so crap compared to every other Arty equipped nation? what is the
point of arty that has to be in enemy view range to be able to fire
on them, no other arty has to be within 500M of the enemy to fire
at them?Falathi: Hi! I think the main reason is the fact we did not really
involve special vehicles into the game. Also, AVRE petard mortar
had an awfully short range and not best accuracy as it was used to
demolish bunkers and field fortifications that usually aren`t very
mobile.
As for SPG - you are right, but in return you get a shell trajectory that enables you to hit targets that are hidden from, for example, German SPGs.

would make a lot of sense but I think it would fit on a higher
tier.

the funnies could be used ingame for a special mode such as the
chaffee racing or the football, or the first world war one with the
Rolls Royce armoured cars. Imagine the team of allies has to
land, get rid of the mines, fill the gaps, bridge the ravines, and
finally deal with an enemy Sturmpanzer (which lots of players also
ask for). It would take a fair degree of work for a two or
three week mode, but WG would get a lot of player goodwill from it.Falathi: I think they would indeed be GREAT for a special mode. For
example one where you need to cooperate to be able to actually get
through obstacles on the map to be able to shoot the enemy.
