Watched 12 mins and I’m gonna go try some stuff out. Lots of great ideas.

The truck use was superb. I’m gonna have to do some testing but overall it’s pretty amazing.

Surprised Noggano didn’t spam mines when he saw the Pios flamer. I feel like you’d bleed a lot without a sweeper.

Shared vet on the 251 is great.

For anyone interested in doing this build yourself, consider getting a second mg instead of a second Pgren if you have an early advantage like in this game. 1 Pgren + 1 Flame Pio already has allot of shock value with the 251 and 2 MG's can really lock down territory and oppress DSHK's or elite infantry which are a common response to this build.

Get a 222 to bully the Shocks and help wipe units.

Mines are good against this, but it's hard to place allot of them with Wehrmacht being able to apply allot of pressure already at the 4 minute mark. Mines also aren't guaranteed to force a retreat with the 251 being able to reinforce and heal. Lastly, Osttruppen can tank obvious mine locations like the edges of a capping circle.

Best way to use the mines would be on the flanks instead of the center, which Noggano obviously did (give him a flank for a minute and you know it will be a mine hell). Osttruppen suck at attacking flanks, so the 251 and the Panzergrenadiers would have to expose themselves to attack it. If this is the case, make sure to keep the Pioneers close to the 251 to repair and spread out the Panzergrenadiers a bit so you don't lose more than 2 models.

I did this previously, but Orangepest advised me to go for better tank timing instead. Obviously I fucked that up this match, cause I lost my second Panzergrenadier squad and decided to replace it.

Not saying it couldn't work, but I personally didn't have the micro to get the most out of both the 251 and 222 and really strained my Pioneer squad to keep both of them repaired, requiring me to get an early second Pioneer.

An exception would be if you're facing an M3, M20 or UC, you could go 222 first then and get a 251 later if you feel the need.
