^^^^^ essentially they rely on docs to cover weaknesses. Such as breakthrough doc is the best way to cover the gap between volks and obers. Personally though I usually go elite armored for sturmtiger to kill blobs which are present in large team games.

building control (no flametrower)

OKW get ~~molotovs~~ incindeary grenades for free. Now that they also have 100% muni they have no problems with building control. Only USF and UKF have problems with buildings.

building control and incing grenade are 2 different thinks. Incing greande completely negate building for some period while flamer allow you to cature that building by forcing enemy out of it. Also it is cheaper in long terms

How is puppchen bad? It was bad but now it's comparable to other AT guns.

Puppchen?

OKW AT gun isn't bad, but the longer range of the pak can lead to safer kills. They're easier to kite so you need to be better at ambush tactics. I think it's a fun challenge, but I'm just an average player so I often don't secure the kill where with the pak I would get the second shot off with the longer range. I guess the pak is just easier?

P.S. Merry Christmas to everyone!

Also easier to pre-emptively destroy and avoid the pak. The camouflage on raketens combined with it being a T0 unit? I'd take it over a pak any day.

What T0 units are you countering with a raketen? I'd rather be building infantry at the start of the game....

My point was that OKW has the raketen without tech. This means you can choose whichever tier order you want, unlike Ostheer.

Ah, ok that makes sense. Sorry about the confusion.

aerafield: @LimaOscarMike I would say nowadays is a decent time to try CoH3. If you loved CoH2 however, there is a solid chance you're gonna dislike CoH3

LimaOscarMike: My laptop can't even run COH3. Should I get them on my Series X or is it dead yet?

Rosbone: One of my last major gripes about Coh3. Price is still too high I feel for growth. But progress is always good.

Rosbone: I am not 100% sure but I think Relic actually fixed up the skirmish menus a little last patch. If so, thank you and keep it coming.
