Yes the win rate is high in 4vs4s for the OKW. But (!!!) there are ways to defeat them in early game and spamm your pretty t34s or kattys until you rape their base.

The answer to this dilemma as Soviets is very easy: get t1, make a penal battalion, then the cute half-truck followed by another penal bettailion. By this time you have enough ammo to afford one flamethrower. Put the penal flame bettailion in the cute half-truck and ride around with this flame of doom. Murder their first sturmpio squad or filthy kubelwagen. In the meanwhile make another cute halftruck and by this time you have enough for a second flamethrower squad. Repeat process and rape anything you find.

From here on it is a simple case of spamming simple tanks or getting guards and putting them in one of the halftrucks as well and finish them off quick.

For US i have no clue on how to beat them fast though!

I played Pantherswag the other day, he was using US and I was using OKW.

He used ten million riflemen and I was all like OH GOD WHAT DO I DOOOOOOOOOOO!? And lost. My raketenwerfers were useless against them. Obviously they need a major buff.

So that works sometimes, but it's probably just that he was a better player than me. In fact, that's almost certainly what it was.

For real though, when I play against OKW I don't find that that hard to deal with in 1v1. With Soviets even Cons can do well against them early game if you keep them close enough together to support eachother. At least hold out until you get some kind of support up, either an M3 or Maxim to push them back a little.

I find the M3 to be a major threat if may squads are caught on their own, that's why I usually try to keep them close enough that they can all convene and focus fire it. Even without raketenwerfers you can usually kill or scare off an M3 with Sturms in cover to draw the fire and then 2 Volks or Kubel attacking it too. It'll depend on what the opponent is doing with his other units that's tough.

This is 1v1, I have no idea what the early game is like in 4v4.

As OKW:
-Get Volk
-Move camera towards enemy base and see shadow of Soviet buildings.
---If rectangular: maxim spam. Play as usual > Go Kubel + Truck push
---If nothing: conscript spam. Play as usual > Go Kubel + Truck push
---If box: T1. Check for his units. See if he goes snipers/Penals/M3.
-----Be wary to back up your truck earlier.
-----Be "defensive" with the Kubel. Get Puma/AA HT he doesn't have counters on T1.

Meanwhile the poor USF :foreveralone:

Is being able to see tech building shadows a bug?

A sturmpio + kubelwagen combo murders the Soviet scout car. And any decent player will keep those two units together.

M3s can be good I guess.. A decent player will not lose a squad to it though. Not even the kubel. T34s against OKW? Must be... no, no just no. Maybe if he doesnt get shreks. Or raketen.. Or puma. Then perhaps!

Oh, a decent player will lose a Volk, Sturm or Kubel. You need to do it correctly.
Im getting above average players all the time with my rank, and its so satisfying to see their kübels die.

OKW - broken
USF- broken
Ostheer - broken
Soviets - obliged to cheese tactics and stupid faction architecture

=> game is broken
=> doesn't worth playing

I think everyone wins 4v4s as Allies sometimes. But most complaints are that as it stands now is:

If gameEndtime = <15

set Winner = Allies

elif
set Winner = Axis

and that plainly sucks.
