Hello Coh2 Players,

i developed a new faction idea as the third axis faction.
Maybe relic members read this and implement this faction or build a faction on this concept.
We all must consider that axis are and have been most of coh2 history on the backfoot, where allies have more advantages through the game than axis.
With this new faction idea we should keep in mind that german soldiers had superior soldier training, willpower and technologies to bring victory for the fatherland and that they used this to their advantage.
To make the faction unique this faction has only 1 Veterancy level that is hard to gain, but if you have it units become very dangerous.

Here comes the units for:

"Oberkommando Secret Weapons" or "Oberkommando Wunderweapons"

T0 - Reichsheadquarter Battlebarracks:

380 MP - GrW38 Ace Battlegroup

Ability: Creeping barrage, Smoke barrage, incendiary barrage.

400 MP - Sniper Ace
Deploy 2 man Squad.

350 MP - Bunker Ace - Build by Reichspioneers.
Ability: Heal and reinforce units in the sector.

280 MP, 40 fuel - Wirbelwind
Medium Tank.
Ability: Suppressive Barrage, Hull down, Incendiary bullets.

I would prefer a German/Italian mix faction if there will be any 3 wehrmacht faction, with Italian infantry and specailized German vehicle to give them some chances vs heavy tanks. Like the Nashorn and Hetzers.

Alright, don't take this personally, but this is the most overpowered and silly suggestion ever made on this forum. Without kidding, I can say that this faction will allow you to take on 2 opponents at the same time with ease.

Also, RPios should be able to build Trench Aces.

Disclosure: I don't think another faction is needed, and I consider it a very bad move if this so happens - balance, bugs, you name it

About the faction:

General feeling about it: OKW is still meh? Take this ubersteroid version.

Tier 1: the basic men would be the only AI infantry? Right off the bat I wouldn't consider buying the pioneer upgrade, unless I get desperate for artillery

The tank-hunters would be super squishy with just 3 men; at least fire power at wooping 3 shreks would be very OP; the abilities are crazy good too. I don't like this.

Kubelwagen ace? For real? What would Hull Down do? Why not the bike?

Tier 2: mortar. Very expensive mortar

The sniper ace is so OP, specially with the mines. Who would use the sniper to snipe? I'd put mines on key places, the tank hunters close, with TWP and reload, voila, no more ANYTHING.

Tier 3: I don't understand why the pak should receive 6 men. This tier is so strange. Is it a new building that allow other buildings (the bunker ace)? Or is it Wehr's "Battle Stages" way of unlocking stuff?

By the way, how many bunker aces would you be able to build?

Tier 4:
Wirbelwind at 40 fuel, no way

The rest of the tier, not sure about the nebel flare. Panzer 3 would be a AT or AI? And the MG incendiary rounds - would it be a limited time ability or permachange? If permachange, very OP

Tier 5: the kingdom of ancient arian gods come upon the feeble allies and hammer them down with rage and unfathomable pain. But why the MP cost for stukka?

Unsolved questions: what would the single veterancy give? And what about commanders? Well, I'd never want any commander with this thing, aside Osttruppen.

That command tiger would be utterly broken at 600/280...thats a game changing aura right from the get go on a tank that you can basically never take down if the opponent isn't really using it to fight.

I would say at least 720/320. But even then that combo of health, reload and speed is insane right off the bat and applying to infantry also.

For comparison command P4 gives only +20% health, and command P5 applies only to tanks until vet 5 (which is basically impossible to reach so who cares).

Mines should be Aces too, basically they should work like spider mines from Starcraft and run to nearby enemy with their little ace legs,... and Ace barb wire.

I literally can't tell if most brilliant troll ever, or so stupid that humanity should take measures to prevent you breeding.


I think he is first one, since second role is clearly taken by some one else :snfPeter:

Of course numbers are not final and can or should be adjusted so its not overpowered.
But i think the general idea promotes combined arms and let you make some diverse tactical decisions by combining diffrent types of units.

This faction doesn't seem to be any fun to play with. Even with corrected numbers, it'll easily take on anything that any opponent throws.

edit: This faction needs more Reichsflugscheibe!

Just replace your faction with a red button. Press it at any time to nuke the enemy.

I want a last ditch defence German/Hungarian faction when they were coming out with Mad max tier assault guns and workshop firearms just in an attempt to hold the line

Heer pioneers with German MP3008's (sten clones)


Volksturm armed with VG1 semi automatic rifles and more panzerfausts than they can carry


Hungarian late war infantry armed with a mix of equipment
