He also posted the following: (So there is still something wrong with cover mode. I wonder what the exploit is.)
Quoted from ES_Swinger:
Well, we've been discussing this amongst ourselves, and we don't tend to talk too much about our deliberations till we've done, but a few thoughts off the top of my head.
The cover mode exploit is a problem, landsknechts mow down TCs with it.
WW's are too hard to kill - their counters are skirms/muskets, but since you can't build cannons vs them, if germany builds any other ranged anti-inf unit, they will mow down your guys.
The winged hussars card is maybe too good.
The settler wagon shipments are great, but I dont think theres a way to change that without making it really awkward.
The uhlans are germanys bonus, can't really change them. Theoretically, could rebalance them completely at a lower cost, maintinting their numbers then, but that presents a tremendous amount of work and could cause all kinds of new problems.
So, me personally....not sure what's the best way to address it. I like lowering the WW range a bit, and perhaps knocking a few HP off of them. OR, giving them less armor so you can kill the dang things. We may want to tweak the mercs a bit as well.
We're still interestd in the feedback though, so keep it coming guys, thanks.
