Thanks

Its always been available at skirmish.
It seems to me not to be so much an issue of fausts if they have or have not been moved (im not sure if they have.....) but in vanilla, an mg42 could take a sizable chunck of life off a jeep with 1 good burst, now they dont seem to do jack. Ive even found with killing normal troops they seem to not be as efficient as they were. Have any of the number junkies seen if they have changed anything with the mg42?

Jeeps have not been buffed, but they do so little damage the 2 mp40 gunners on the 42 could slowly killl it.
For the bren, rushing it with a mass group of volks is your best bet. Surround it and it will die quickly, mp40s also work.

Ya I've played a few games where Its a split team 2v2 and my mgs come up vs allied jeeps. I really did notice that they didnt seem to hurt the jeep. In fact, I even got jeep/scout car rushed and they killed all my units one time and then took the entire map. Ya I'm pretty positive they changed somethin

I don't know if I have seen a difference?
I played a game yesterday on Rail & Metal as Wehrmacht. Put a HMG in the house below the center fuel point and another in the shack a little to the left of the center fuel point. The Allies sent more than a few jeeps through the area and none survived because one MG or the other took them down.
They may take more damage when out in the open and not in a building?

Brens are nasty but surrounding them with volks will take care of them as for jeeps. Well using panzerfausts on them was always a waste, it's best to just order the volks to keep firing on them. If you have mp40s then jeeps shouldn't be a big problem and neither should brens.

I vote for a faust buff. Make it 35 like the Fallschirmjagers.
