Are railroad guns worth it for non-axis doctrines?

Kyrollous · Nov 8th 2023, 1:02pm

It's known by all that acis RRGs are the bestvwith increased range.

Though I am thinking they are not that good for other doctrines ... specifically thinking about that extra range.
Can't my enemy just bomb me with his RRGs with extra range and just run away?
What could I do to stop him? In RRG VS RRG situations I can only see that axis dominates..

Then we might as well just focus on other anti-RRG tactics to handle it?

Axis has an advantage, but you just have to accept it and try to outmaneuver them. They are still seemingly the META, for some reason.

RRG is OP, spam them.

To not have your RRG bombed, just stack them with some AA/SPAA maybe 3 or 5 is good. And axis dominated because the faction focuses on Power which Increase Damage and HP but at the cost of more expensive production, so if theres 1 Axis Infantry, attack it with 2 Ally Infantry. Same as, if Axis have 1 RRG, attack it with 2 RRG.

Pan-Asian is not bad, since you can make RRGs better for shoot and scoot

Then again, you can produce more with less resources and less time for Comintern and Allies respectively.

Bro get attack bombers and destroy those. Even tank destroyers can be good as they got stealth.
Attack bombers are a lot cheaper and faster to build: Allies level 1 takes only 3 hrs 15 mins

Anyone Call of War player worth his neckbeard knows that railroad guns are vulnerable to air attack, so he uses 10 anti-air in any RRG stack and arms himself to the teeth with interceptors lol

To keep up with Axis RRGs you need to stick to plains terrain while the enemy is on any other terrain, and you will be faster than the enemy. This allows you to close the gap with range.

Your other options is to retreat back to prepared positions with infrastructure on them, which will make you must fastr than the Axis RRGs.

Yes. Until the upcoming nerf, RRG is king

If so then fine, but what if I get 10 railguns myself?

Nobodyx2 · Nov 13th 2023, 3:12am

Or if I use like 500 tactical bombers in stacks of let's say 50

Komrade Khrushchev · Nov 15th 2023, 3:17pm

Because of the new update, no.

Nobodyx2 · Nov 16th 2023, 4:05am

Which update?

They split RR guns into two levels, the first one being less powerful than the current one, and the second one is more powerful but costs a lot more. It was apparently intended to lessen the effectiveness of RR gun doom stacks.

Nobodyx2 · Nov 19th 2023, 2:59am

Yeah that's the recent update, but if you got good economy then you can still build doom stacks lol

Stan Simons · Nov 21st 2023, 6:27am

Has anyone here even tried the new RRG?

Nobodyx2 · Nov 21st 2023, 9:33am

I plan on building it lol, but didn't actually even research it
