No one spoke of "anything like even numbers" and for the most part they didn't think they were in any way inferior to the Germans.


I believe it was Montgomery, actually.

Axis > Allies
Empire > Rebels
Nod > GDI
RA Soviet > RA Allies
Azmodian > Elios
Horde > Alliance


Just gonna add on to this

Covenant < Humanity : Spartans are just bad-ass, I don't care how many Scarabs the Covies pull.

Guess what? It's a sniper movie! That wasn't that hard, was it?


Okay, now this is some opinion forcing bullshit.


I'm not forcing opinion. I'm addressing players who prefer Axis over Allies. I didn't say one SHOULD prefer Axis over Allies or vice versa.

If I were to ask pro-Allies players why Axis players like Axis, they'll say OpieOP. I want an actual reason for once to finally settle my thoughts.

All these posts from players are quite satisfying and truthful, I am glad ^_^ Maybe Relic should listen to these posts and try to replicate the good attributes people mention and apply it to all present and future factions.

Brute force factions are always going to be more popular then glass cannons or swarm factions. one of the reasons why csm and sm factions where so popular in dow 2 .

other factions tend to be a less forgiving. take for example jackson vs the panther. i would rate the jackson as the better TD but one fuckup and its gone forever not so with panther.

And of course the germans look way cooler then the allies.

Because you equate the Covenant as the Quality vs the Quantity faction?

It's funny because with their swollen numbers through grunts and jackals, they actually outnumbered humanity! Humanity had lesser numbers but more innovative technology rather than imitative reverse engineered technology like the Covies.


Otherwise I'm not sure where you see the Irony or the Sarcasm. :unsure:

Oh but it was not about quality vs quantity but "good" vs "evil" (look at initial post of the listing).

Thus the sarcasm comes from your actual statement that humanity is on the evil side when fighting the covenant. And it is ironic since you obviously believe the opposite.

No offense. :)

Really? I could have sworn the listing was about which factions were considered the "coolest" aesthetically.

Empire > Rebels
Wehrmacht > Allies
Covenant < Humanity

That's kinda my understanding of that post.

Because they are easier to play while not being OP. Below Top200, at equal skill Axis are much more forgiving than Allied. You can only lose if you have been outplayed.
If I feel I´m not going to be 100% focused, I switch to Ostheer because the faction is damned simple to play.

That´s simply not true. 4men squads standard are not forgiving to play. Especially not versus ammo-floating Soviets with omni-purpose mines and a focus on artillery.
