Quick hint from me is the blob early warning system(BEWS) build of 2x Pios,1 gren,2MG,and a sniper. Only drawback is you're kinda screwed against M20 if your grens are out of position.
Ill watch it later today

Its a bit counterproductive to fight in the forest on this map (Or lienne forest) as Ostheer vs USF. just fight in the open north and around the middle fuel.

You guys are fighting mostly in the city where the allies have the advantage instead of up north in the open fields where axis has the advantage,(and the victory points+ fuel).
So you guys are losing Kubels and MGs left and right,accomplishing nothing,and the map is completely blue 6 mins in.

Part of the reason why you're getting blown back so hard,is your OKW teammate did not build a forward med hq,and its 6 mins in and he actually hasnt teched at all. him building a med hq in the middle is enough to hold and control,and at the very least, contest,that middle fuel.

You, shouldve had your forces roving between the middle fuel and the victory point+top fuelfuel,with support from the med truck and the OKW player.

Really, your teammate is screwing you over pretty badly,and if hes your partner find a new one if you like winning, really bad teammate. STILL hasnt teched at all 8 minute in,hasnt touched the top fuel....

Teammate finally techs up and gets a unit and its a flak halftrack 10 minutes in...

So far i have also seen 0 blobs. 3 squads ambushing a lone MG in a forest is not a blob.

14 mins in and no T4 from your OKW teammate
YOu guys still have not secured your section of the map you're strongest at.(the open fields)
This review so far is really just me harping on your teammate but again he really sucks. floating 1k manpower with plenty of fuel,no T4,no MG34s,nothing. Any of that wouldve stopped that ultra OP blob of 4 PPSH conscripts on open ground(sarcasm) dead in their tracks,and even now,20 minutes in, you guys(your teammate) has never secured the top fuel.

If anything that loss was on your teammate for the most part,it IS a 2v2.
And your mistake was fighting in that cramped forest against USF. You actually played solidly.

My tip for you? Find a real teammate around your skill level,and play to your faction's strength on particular maps.
