The propaganda ability has been in the game since it came out. The Anti-infantry Tactics and Terror Tactics commanders have it.

Its underused because of said reasons and because it doesnt work consistently / fast enough.

Have you considered looking at the Soviet commanders in the Army Customizer? You know this game isn't just a German simulator and lets you do that right?

Yeah, generally people think the NKVD Commander is pish.

Then suddenly Advanced Warfare came out and people started complaining about how Radio Intercept was OP despite the fact that the NKVD guy had had it since day one.



Propaganda is not an ability I chose, but I find I like it when I have it. As in, it is better than nothing and it does force people to retreat. A incen barrage just forces them to move, but not necessarily to retreat.

It is cheaper than an incen barrage after all but does not do damage.

However if you can set it up so that your teammates drop things on the base after you've retreated them there you can get some damage.



As most people talk about 1v1 and 2v2 the maps are smaller, in theroy on a bigger map the lack of field presence caused by a forced retreat and having to walk back has a greater effect.

tbh this doctrine can be very very good in the right hands sure you don't get a call in tank but who cares. :D recommend using in 2v2s more munis to play with.

Wifi, I hope you're joking. :D Because NKVD is by far the most over powered doctrine in the game and it should be seen more often in high skill games. :)
