[COH1] How to play Panzer Elite?

Im kinda lost with these guys. My early game goes usually fine with 4 PZGREN - Defensive ops - pzgren opening. Then i usually tech to tier 3 and get infantry halftrack and shreks if i dont see BARs for riflemen

But then everything starts to fall apart. How do you fight multiple bar squads without getting rekt? Its too hard to hold ground vs them with g43s only. I know the suppression is godlike but it has so long cooldown.

OK if i tech to tier 1 to shorten cooldown with muni halftrack im spending my precious fuel which should be saved to vehicles.

OK if i tech to T3 for MP44s I get Marder from the same building, but 3 men squads in close combat are so fragile and i dont get veterancy so fast and veteran sergeant is in tier 4..

So can anyone help me? When should i upgrade veteran sergeant and zeal?

Panzer elite is just fucking confusing faction. They have strong stuff but everything is locked behind different tiers so its too damn hard. And holding ground is so hard when you cant build sandbags and have a MG..

And the lack of medium tank and tank a durable tank destroyer is just soo painful :(

If I recall it right, I used to build t2 and t3 with the third PG, which meant you had to go for the fuel right away, hold it with 2 PG's and let the ketten go harass points. After you get your first AC, just go pick up lone squads. Now if you see bars, its safe to go another AC, if you suspect fast t3 from US, then I usually went for teller mines and a mortar HT.

AC's were really annoying and usually 2 of them made the enemy rage. Always get at least 2 defensive vet for them, because of their paper armor, which means you have to babysit them alot.

My builds mostly, when i dont see some weird mix from enemy:

1v1 vs USA :

5 Grens , T2 Inf HT, T3 AC , HQ Heal, T4 AT HT

Fight as one force, hold your grens together, focus flamer Engis, use Cover, dont run into Rifles behind cover etc.

2v2 :

4 Grens, T2 T3 AC, Mortar AC

then tech up panther etc

OKSpitfire: I do like that they made the Stuka more expensive instead of nerfing it into the ground though. Found it pretty unsatisfying to use before that buff a while back....

aerafield: USF already is by far the shittiest faction in terms of countering blobbing and turtling, now they supposedly have one overtuned tool locked behind a BG and it's immediately a massive problem?

Lady Xenarra: I think post-2.0 Whizbang buffs, the price is too low esp since the Stuka got nerfed in cost too. Speaking of which, how exactly is one supposed to successfully dive this Sherman in disguise? Med tank spam running into SSFs?

Lady Xenarra: WTB Whizzbang for DAK instead of Stuka, 5 fuel cheape, 60MP more expensive and next to impossible to dive. :rofl:

Rosbone: It is also hard to expect Relic to help Coh2 when they cant even make working menus in Coh3 yet, 2 years after release and at full price+ for DLCs. Thats like asking a fish to do calculus.

Rosbone: But this last patch has made good progress for grabbing players. All we can hope is Coh3 gets to Coh2s quality level before everyone abandons the franchise. Its Relic so they will completely f*%k it up as usual. But its a hope/cope.

Rosbone: Relic wants Coh2 to fail so players will migrate to Coh3. It is hard to blame them since Coh3 sucks so bad. It needs all the help it can get.

aerafield: @OKSpitfire tbh I find it quite challenging to get the Pershing in time, having to suffer through the CoH3 tickrate and this endless bullshit meta of massive blobs going back and forth to the forward heal truck

OKSpitfire: Well... going to be seeing the Pershing a lot for a little while, that thing is a monster.
