SOV vs OKW - Post July 22nd Patch

Hey guys, I'd like to ask for feedback on a game I lost earlier against OKW. I'm pretty frustrated with the munitions income change, which seems to have resulted in the OKW player being able to stay in the game without any fuel at all (or after wasting his fuel units, as in this replay). Grenades are cheap enough to push back infantry every cool down, and panzershrecks are effective enough to serve as primary AT for a 40 minute game. I wrote more about the game in the replay description.

Thanks in advance!

Hmm, anyone have any ideas why my replay isn't being processed by the coh2.org service? The replay file's working fine on my PC, so I assume it's not that there's been another patch since I uploaded.

They're working on getting the parser fixed, for now it's mostly working but player names and replay length seem to be broken.

First of all, I hate Crossing the Woods against OKW. I'll recommend to veto that map.

I usually play 2vs2, and the build order that has given me the best results against OKW is that:

Conscripts -> T1 -> Penal+M3+Penal+Sniper+Sniper -> T2 -> ZiS+Maxim+(ZiS or Shocks)
You will need good micro with the M3 and you have to lure your enemy's first Flak HT or Puma to your ZiS. Upgrade flamethrowers to all penals en engie too.

If you succefully destroyed his first vehicles you can try to go T3. If not, make at least two ZiS and go for the T34/85 call-in.

OKW find T1, snipers especially, very difficult to deal with.

OKW find T1, snipers especially, very difficult to deal with.

To add up, penals/engies (w flamers) inside M3 can kill retreating Sturmpios and Volks squads. That is a great blow for a OKW player to come back.

Don't charge against full health Sturmpios squads, chip their health from afar and then get close to finish them off with the flamer.

You want do win vs OKW? Go for abuse tactics .... spams of all kind (M3, Sniper, Maxims ...)as openings and then Shocks .... an early T34, or KV-8 some incendary arty and his At-should be gone .....
