Thanks for the demonstration, Von Ivan's opponents!

For being stuck in barbed wire, you can upgrade your engineers/pioneers with the sweeper upgrade which comes with a wire cutting package. So you can cut your own wire, you are extremely vulnerable while cutting it and I think you can't cancel it so sandbags are always a safer option. Didn't know the building trick, will be useful.

[@tightropegaming]

Yes that is the default way to get out so I didn't include it. The issue is you often wire yourself in so early you don't have munitions for a sweeper or are outside friendly territory so can't start the upgrade.

[@NathanMulder]

I find it hilarious how ice cold VonIvan stays when he gets wrecked by his own satchels lol.

[@moa643]

Don't do it with Pioneers :)

questions : 1. do they reload rocket launcher on move? (panzerschreck , bazooka) 2. are mortars separate auto-fire / barrage accuacy state? 3. does sandbags / tanktraps give you the same green cover state? 4. I was place sandbags and wire infront of them, but enemy's units still get green cover icon for some reason , will they get the cover bonus?

[@novaprospects]

sakuya izayoi 1. Yes 2. They have different accuracy 3. Yes, green cover is green cover. The difference is the durability of the cover. 4. It depends on the friendly/enemy models positioning (is distance from the sandbag) I haven’t played in a long time but I’m pretty sure this is all correct.

[@kvnen]

sakuya izayoi sometimes if the wire is too close to the green cover, they can still benefit. If this is the case put another piece of wire behind the one you just placed.

[@novaprospects]

Just to clarify 2. Barrage is more accurate. I believe it has a faster rate of fire too, not 10p% there though.

[@sgrazy1]

for 4 definitely yes, as long as the circles are green and they're behind the sandbag, then the sandbag will provide green cover. Almost always need 2 wires to deny sandbag cover.

Hail Tightrope, Good content as always

[@arcturus64]

Awesome tips! I've been wondering, when units are garrisoned inside a vehicule from which they can fire from like the russian half track or the 250 half track, they are shown with a green cover icon. Does this mean that conscripts, ostruppen and infantry sections get their bonus from being behind cover? Also, if units are firing from a moving vehicule, does it lower their accuracy as if they were firing while walking? Another question is about the ostheer artillery officer's active buff, when you proc it near a vehicule that has passengers who can fire while garrisoned, there's only 1 Accuracy/reload time buff icon displayed above the vehicule. Is it that: A:The vehicule gets the reload buff and the infantry get the accuracy buff? B:The vehicule gets the reload buff and the infantry get the reload buff (for some reason)? C:The vehicule gets the reload buff and the infantry doesn't get any buff? I have no idea and I'd be curious to know if anyone knows.

[@olivernathan3924]

Units inside moving vehicles are much less accurate than those that are stationary.

[@sgrazy1]

Only while the vehicle is moving or rotating. Stand still and toggle handbrake mode.

[@faerie7dragon]

Which episode has the tip regarding handheld AT animations?

[@snakeylps]

Hey Tightrope, Are you an axis main?

[@010karl010]

The people that spend time and micro for not getting stuck in order to barb wire cover.... [sigh]
