Too much artillery

[Wilh]

For the love of god please reduce the amount of artillery on the battlefield! It feels impossible to field anything static at the moment as artillery will simply blow it to Smithereens the second the first shot has been fired.
With air we at least have some form of counter but the counter to artillery is simply to spawn more artillery to counter said artillery - In other words it's a bloody artillery fest lol

I would recommend to simply make artillery a form of call-in like in the CoH series and have a hefty cool-down to counter the endless spam. Also it would be wise to keep artillery limited to the field of view - In other words no artillery strikes in the fog of war

if you want to kill arty, you can counter arty, or you can infiltrate special units behind enemy lines to kill arty units

Wah, though you’re recommending using strategy in a strategy game…that’s not fair…

No offense but MoW's portrayal of artillery is comical at best and isn't even close to how it was used during WW1 nor WW2. They should just make it off-map and introduce cool downs like in CoH and make it FoV only and not useable in FoW.

So in other words I want artillery, not counting mortars and such but the heavy duty stuff, to be less frequent albeit still have the destructive power intact. I believe this would encourage more tactical maneuvering across the map as you simply can't just blast through defenses with ease anymore.

Oh and the fog of war thing isn't a must. It works great in the CoH series but it would probably require quite some re-balancing to work properly in MoW2
