1) Due to the the still unknow extent of the "back into meta" patch, i will refrain from going overboard with rerolls and such.
2) Primary concern is to provide buff suggstion to close some if not all of the coalitions capability gaps.
3) "Big" rerolls will be considered and put onto the list if it has to do with the capability gap.
Now before you scream bias or i don't have a clue how to play BD, i'm keeping the more interesting and authenticity based stuff in mind, if eugen spills the beans about the exact plan then we can add those to the list. Also, most of the capability gap stuff comes from my own BD games, which i tend to play when go for BluFor, add in Razz's thread and i think we should have gotten most of them right. I left out many suggestions for RD, not because i didn't want them, but for gameplay purposes the list on the first page is good enough, so i won't start with BD and go overboard.
Now onto tank topic: BD tank tab is far from garbage, while the K1A1 is kinda in an awkward place, the true high-end and mid-end are very strong with their distinct characteristics.
Technically the tank tab just need some small tweaks and no real reason to slash Kyu-Maru availability/take it's German ammo away nor to buff K1A1 to 160 pts status. Yes, it would be authentic to switch K1A1 and Kyu-maru around, however it doesn't improve the tank tab situation in general. I'm also under the impression that K1A1 prototyp from 1996 was just slightly uparmored from the original K1, so the +1 FAV increase would just be that. Is there any sources which say that in 1996 the armor of K1A1 is already upgraded to 600mm RHA?
yup, i was wrong about KSAP's service time. KASP developed in 1997. theres too many classfied infos that makes to check with only ROKA staffs :/
but 1997 is still in timeline, thanks for T-90S.
and idk how KMS got DM53, which one is only used by Leo2A5 -WG's superheavy only- with no availability about more powerful shell. in now, KMS still using JM33 even though new APFSDS(own developed DM-53 Class) is in service. really KMS can use DM53? IDK anyway.
or give K1A1 M829(A1?A2?)from USA and set AP to 24. as the DM53, SK can get M829 series from USFK. this one may be more possible.
