What's the build for this? Best commanders, maps and any tips and tricks to the build.

3 rifles > LT > M20 (you need this) > fuel cache > rifle or paratrooper > major > sherman.

Use this BO effectivelly and you can do very well.

If you find yourself lacking MP skip the fuel cache.

Don't forget you NEED airborne or you're left without an AT Gun.
Drop it after you build the Cache.

I do not recommend USF at guns right now because AT guns green cover doesn't work right now (works from the sides instead of the front) which means that obers or LMG grens can easily wipe it from max range.

How do you handle a OKW flak ht, or a Puma, or worse... An early luchs ?
It's not good against heavier tanks or good late in the late game with obers running around, it's Damn good against light vehicles

Yeah, the ATG mightn't be too hot atm, but it is essential.

Puma? You just ignore it until you get a sherman out. Flak HT? AA HT. M20 mines or (gasp) bazookas.

Luchs? Sherman. Actually, vs flak HT and puma captain > bazookas > stuart might actually be a good choice.

Of course, the USF at gun is good vs light and medium vehicles, and decent vs heavies, but i dont think its required.

But we're talkin 10 min Sherman start here and zooks VS flak is a nice way to lose a lot of men and map control.
Too many times I've been cut off or something and the Sherman is slightly delayed allowing a luchs to run rampant, which is an easy way to get half your army wiped on retreat or even in your base. Relying on m20 mines alone is very risky. Just drop an at gun for insurance If anything
