Nerfed into the ground?

I find out a very fast T2 is effective. Get a sapper put mines down, everywhere. A sniper to bleed his MP is always a nice thing, but I prefer getting a 2nd sapper first and after that the sniper.

This was the build I did last game and worked out pretty well:

• Tommy
  
• Tommy
  
• HMG
  
• T2 UPGRADE
  
• Sapper
  
• Sapper
  
• AT gun
  
• Sniper
  

After that I pretty much just builded what I needed to counter what he had. He had quite a lot infantry so I went for more tommy sections.

Just upgrade one tommy squad with a healing upgrade, you need ammo to put those mines down.
If you try this, let me know

Played on the map Kholodny Ferma Summer verison.

IMO OKW is mainly focused on early game, it's not that easy to get fast med or rep station, with costs on sWS it's impossible to do truck pushing like before, flak HT still sucks, Luchs could be good if called in very fast but it's expensive, OKW should always go for T4 ->P4/JP4 with obersoldats. Also this huge nerfs for Leigs (remove suppression is the biggest one) makes them weak, or at least weaker compared to it's current cost

About OKW doc - it's simply def doc from CoH1 Wehrmacht, advanced warnings revealing huge part of map, truck detections, goliath for ambushes and ofc FTFL which is probsbly cool but havent tested it yet, stuka assault it like the British counterpart Typhoon assault (is that correct name) but instead of rockets they drop 4 bombs and pin infantry with MG's, not very effective vs armour but still can be used well

"Their damage increase will make them more powerful in the early game. With the need to pay for Oberkommando West trucks and the slight manpower increase per model, you'll probably see less Volks than before. "

Although it's an OK article, I don't think you are being objective at all. Have you been playing with Allies and Axis recently? All Allies players see is waves and waves of Volks, and they are not crap anymore. When you play with OKW, you cannot NOT spam Volks since they are very powerful at the moment! With goliath, Volks buff, fuel income 100%, OKW is a force that cannot be beaten if played vs decent players. I mean, last game I had 3 panthers by 20-23th minutes and I have 75% win rate with OKW. As for Allies, I used to have 60% win rate before the patch, I had a solid -4 and -7 streaks. So, I think it's important to be a bit more objective because with Allies, you lose even if you try your ass off and with Axis, you win even if you don't give a crap!
