Maybe torpedo boats? Very good against surface ships but useless defense against other ships and subs. Very low HP.

New unit idea!!!!,!,!
New unit idea that I have: ship raiders!
Ship raider can attack ships, like those modern day Somali pirates
unit production cost : 1k food, 2.5 goods
What need to produce : barracks level 3, and an a naval base

Torpedo boats were kind of uncommon in WWII. They existed, but they'd get absolutely POUNDED by destroyers and cruisers.

torpedo boats were literally moved out of the battlefield because of destroyer's efficiency

mobile anti tank unit's,like cheap,milita version of tank destroyers and AT but you need to research motorised infantry,it's a faster anti tank unit and cheap,but a weaker than say a tank destroyer,like the jeep with the bazookas on them,and also light recon planes with bazookas,rosie the rocketeer for example (don't remember if i got the name right) but these can be used as last ditch weapons,cheap but weak

You are mixing the weapon system and its transportation mode.XXpheonix wrote:

All infantry units can be considered as carrying with them AT weapons (else they would have 0 in anti-armor attack) : Boys rifles, Panzershreck, Piat, AT grenades,...
Motorized infantry has the dudes with say the bazookas in a truck, whereas normal infantry has those people on foot.
As for Bazooka Charlie, it was one unique case of jury-rigged bazookas. Let's assume that when your fighter overperformed against ground forces of higher level it is because of your pilot may have jury-rigged his own plane.

II don't think there were any rocket bombers (different from jet bombers), except the suicide Ohka.GrandEmpire wrote:

A mortar at least in WW2 i sa tactical weapon (range of typically less than 1km), so you can assume that your infantry has some mortars.GrandEmpire wrote:

I am not sure what they would bring to the game, as there is no target they can counter that the destroyer does not already counter (eg : it would be beaten by every single existing ship class). The only purpose I would see is intercepting transport for cheaper than a destroyer.qwertupo wrote:

They are also going to be difficult to implement as they are only able to navigate in coastal water, which means the designers would have to take every single map in the game and define coastal water vs high sea. Not worth it IMO.

Certain models of Torpedo boats like the PT boats were highly effective against all manner of surface ships including destroyers due to their fast speed and large firepower while keeping cost and the ship’s profile to a minimum. But even tho I can go on and on about how OP PT boats were they wouldn’t fit in CoW since their main role was to Search and Destroy bigger enemy ships which required them to be prepped and deployed so you could never have them just cruising around like ships do in CoW.Karl von Krass wrote:

I understand that by "heavy mortar" he means something like the Karl-Gerät, but it would work exactly like RRG anyway : slow as heck, expensive, long range.
The moment where "railbound" means something in the game then it would make sense to maybe split the two (but even then, I don't think the Karl-Gerät warrants its own unit in game, but then even RRG is already a stretch for me).
By the way, if you say just "mortar", no one even an expert of WW2 is going to think about the Karl-Gerät, they will think of the infantry weapon.
10 Feb 2021, 10:41
Well, the Mortar can be level two of rrg, since it is the only unit with no lvl follow up

That's because beyond the war, the railroad gun was considered obsolete due to the nuclear bombs and other technologies.
