Faction comparison by Relic

Jump back to quoted post17 Aug 2015, 20:18 PMAlexzandvar

That is the opposite of how OKW is supposed to be played. OKW has the worst defensive options in the game due to lack of a capable MG, no viable emplacements outside of the Pak43, and the fact that you have no area denial outside of the Schwer HQ (which isn't super hard to destroy). Your supposed to use your trucks as spring boards to maintain constant unrelenting assaults that were your enemy down to nothing.

Unit preservation is everything; you cannot afford squad wipes at any period in the game nor can you afford armor losses. Late game power comes from the efficiency offered by 2 extra levels of Vet not invincible tanks.

usf is strong with combined arms tactics, but no one actually uses combined arms cause players usually only tech 2 officers instead of 3.

I have a feeling that some poor Artist at Relic didnt consult anyone who knows how to play this game when he made this.

OKW early game faction? The fuck?

I consider a solid forward HQ as the best area denial - especially on bigger maps. OKW just happens to have access on one from the very beginning, non-doctrinal ofc.

Interesting poster. First time I've seen the UKF shield. Not sure what I think of it. The OKW and USF shields were so epic... they make the UKF shield just look kinda meh.

Yeah, because USF also needs to maintain an armor advantage as well because they rely on numbers. The 50. cal isn't going to help you when panthers start rolling in.

You were in the alpha right?

Maybe that long awaited OKW change is on the way ....

First they were called Ostheer. Then they were called Germans. Now they are called Wehrmacht. Who knows what they will be called next.

I just hope they kept the fuel cost on the Kubel this time!
