Can some of you guys please give me advice on preserving units in COH 2 because I've been struggling with it since forever.

What are your tips in keeping your units ALIVE

Knowing where your shit is. Retreating when you know you can't win an engagement immeditaely. Top right bar top right bar top right bar. Don't overextend without any AT nearby.

I know people whove been playing coh since 2006 and they are shit. Some people are good at keeping everything they build alive, and some have to replace their army 3x over. When you get down to it. Its micro management and being quick about retreats/ positioning, knowing your enemies units.

I guess I´m pretty good at judging the situation, what I am really struggling with are the unit wipes from mortars, pack howies/isg´s, pershings/Kingtigers and in general if my dumb units clump up in yellow cover. The more players are on the map the more difficult it becomes to preserve your units.

The advices from my experiences are:
Don´t fight in engagements you can´t win, never get too greedy (especially if you brought down enemy tanks to almost nothing and want to finish them with your tank), reconnaissance is king and be careful with yellow cover.

For 3s/4s its usually too cluttered to use the tactical map, you can barely see whats what and whose who. Because of this, I've learned to rely on the top right. This is your friend, you see all your units, are they idle, are they in a fire fight. I find it very helpful.

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific. :snfQuinn:.

Willy Pete: @Nickbn you didn't ask a question, and this is a chat box...
20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM
Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM
Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
