A Proposal For Improving The Ostheer Metagame

The idea isn't to improve their early-game. It's to give them more teching flexibility and give them an easier time with light vehicles like the Stuart and T70.


So why the hell would you buy a PaK as your fourth unit against Conscripts and Rifles?


Maybe, but even one PaK hit would force them to retreat and repair. And Panzerfausts at Battle Phase 1 still arrive pretty quickly - pretty much at the same time the M20 arrives.


You don't have to skip T2 with the above changes. It would just make it an option. Access to the 222 and 251 would be completely unchanged.


Yes you're right, it is not the M20 but the Dodge I had in mind. Anyway, you'll never be able to counter Sov T1 and USF mechanized commander without Faust at T1.
A pak = almost 2 units less on the field just to hope to hold early light vehicle.

And giving all the tools you may need at T1 isn't = to diversity.

And you should have a pak at the moment stuart or T70 hit the field. If you don't, or you have a problem with your BO, or you want to skip T2 which is a choice to assume.

What if they moved the pac to the tier 1 barracks, but unlocks @ tier 2? That could work. Maybe we would see more tech routes then.

It's more like all snipers should have 6 sec cloak instead because small arms are so bad against instacloak

I agree with that. It was insane how much snipers dominated OCF main event and even with good flanks the only way snipers seemed to get killed was counter snipe and of course several commando ambushes. Thankfully they can't stay cloaked anywhere like they used to in vCOH but I would like to see their cloaking all nerfed a bit because it seems like it's the most important unit in any battle every time it's built and takes the focus off of everything else.
