OKW Beginner Questions

I hadn't seen a topic about this yet, so I figured I'd start one.

1) In a preview video, I thought they said that the supply trucks would increase territory income (like an observation post), but this doesn't seem to be the case? I also thought that territories where they deployed would turn darker blue, giving that "bulge" feeling they were going for, but that doesn't seem to be there.

2) If trucks aren't giving a resource bonus, what is the advantage of deploying a truck forward? Yes, you can reinforce from them (no halftracks have reinforce capabilities), and have forward medic/repair areas. But with the cost, it mostly seems like a liability.

3) Does the IR halftrack give a direct line-of-sight accuracy bonus for artillery if still in FOW?

4) OKW seems unique with not having any transport or flamethrower unit (think every other army including COH1 has these features). Transport could do without unless it's a larger map, but flamethrower is an important building-clearer (1 time payment vs. multiple grenades). How do you make up for lacking these?

1. They scrapped that whole concept.

2.Its risk vs reward. Risk a forward medic station? Play it safe behind the lines?

3. I don't know

4.Sturmpioneers clear buildings pretty fast, all elite infantry do as well, but not as well as flamers.

Believe it or not but use the ability of the puma to clear buildings.

The americans lack non-doctrinal flamethrower weapons as well. They have two doctrinal ones though.

aerafield: @LimaOscarMike I would say nowadays is a decent time to try CoH3. If you loved CoH2 however, there is a solid chance you're gonna dislike CoH3

LimaOscarMike: My laptop can't even run COH3. Should I get them on my Series X or is it dead yet?

Rosbone: One of my last major gripes about Coh3. Price is still too high I feel for growth. But progress is always good.

Rosbone: I am not 100% sure but I think Relic actually fixed up the skirmish menus a little last patch. If so, thank you and keep it coming.

Osinyagov: Suddenly, coh2 is slowly dying, but you can play it, playerbase still big enough

Osinyagov: Wow, i remember you from zansi and vali videos, good old memories

aerafield: yeah I already prepared my "Can't believe there's comic mode for the 10 daily visitors even on this April 1st" :guyokay:
01 Apr 2025, 20:29 PM
Rosbone: @dasheepeh I guess that means this site is officially dead :guyokay:

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes
01 Apr 2025, 02:36 AM
Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
