This patch tells me to play Wehrmacht while waiting for this to be balanced out and for the OKW commander changes that are not coming until next year.

OKW was my favourite faction, now they're bat shit OP and lost half of what made them fun to play.
Once their tech timings are smoothed out, they'll be even more boring to play.

15% faster capture rate compared to infantry for Kubel, or is it 15% faster capture rate from stock current Kubel?

- Combat package back at 90mu
- Volks are now 250 mp units

I am slightly confused.

15% faster compared to infantry. Kubelwagen can't cap right now.

I hate it.

ya man, me myself favor OKW more than other fac, but right now i cant play it due to worst stat it in now,
but after i read the patch make me dont want to play it yet again, cause its another clone of USF OPness,
god i can only play SOV right now, as i think its the most balance faction

The kubelwagon losing it's suprression abilities doesn't sit well with me for one... Now the OKW don't have much supression to fight blobs other than the Le.ig and flack-track (unless you choose the right doctrine)
And latley people have been damn near begging to get supression removed from Howitzers (which i personally am against) but if they succeed in convincing relic, it would leave just the flacktrack.... Supression is almost essential in every game when it comes fo holding territory and fighting blobs so i don't think it's going to help..
The early tech timing might make up for it for awhile but obviously it will be nerfed to balance and i believe that's when lack of suppression will really show

looking at the vet now its just 3 star vet spread into 5 vet star but no adjustment to vet requirement so in theory its harder to reach vet5 ( vet 3 worth).

Thats actually quite cool.
It will be OKW's equivalent to the rear echelon troops then, at least in the pest/ capper role

It'll be broken.
Reminds me of how Tyranids used to have Rippers in DoW2. You didn't need them to fight, they could just cap things while your core army kept his busy. Same deal with PE in CoH1.
I don't know why you would give a unit that has significantly higher mobility faster capping speed too. Anytime OKW gets you to retreat you're going to be cut off right away by a kubel wagon.

there are some things i like about it and some i don't...

I have been thinking about that too. Still, remember that the ressource cut is removed, that mean much more fuel aviable = a much more interestin FlakHT.
But there is still unknown numbers. As i read the patch the building truck is not an automatic free unit anymore as it is build in the T0. So how much does it cost? how much does it add to the tech tree?
The new munition income makes me think that OKW will not be as decision-based as before on that point. Before you had to choose between combat packages, offmap strikes and grenades. Now things may look like Soviet where you can offer everything provided you dont waist.
+1 on the DOW2 Rippers XD

Only thing I could agree with, I would assume vehicle cap slower
I do like the idea of kubel capping a lot though.

The truck costs 100 manpower and 15 fuel.

2. OKW have less viable ways to supress besides the mg34 with locks you in a doctrine.
3. Kubels no longer cost fuel and can cap which reminds me of the alpha kubel (bad)
4. Volks have both flame and regular grand which is just redundant. At least give the Sturms the flame nade so they can be a better anti garrison assult units.

1. Tech will be crazy fast now and can get a Luchs out by the 4 min mark(3:30 if your real good.)
You must be really, really good man. Maybe play the mod first?

Either that or capping requires you to "deploy" or something that has a delay. I tend to agree with Dullahan that Kubel's high mobility makes cutting off on some maps a bit too easy.

Unfortunately that was with the mod :/ unless they changed it recently
