thought this would please you of all people XD
All you guys just won't get it, do you? Remember, I said it first:
You WILL REGRET the "shreck blob" times. You thought that "shreck blob" is the worst thing because you cannot spam your allied tanks being jalous on effective and good loocking german armor.
I am an axis fanboy, worst, an OKW fanboy but I want a fair fight.
Before, you had your early game. OKW had weaknesses - you could use riflemen, shocks, guards, commandos, and dominate the infantry battles because the tank battles were much to difficult to win. Guess what, now all your advantages are gone and transferred to OKW. STG volks are pushing rifles of the field and kill them on retreat. And rifles are your best core infantry. Hell, with special operations or scavange doctrine I will engage even a shocks squad with my stg volks head on! Later, you will have even smaler chances against OKW armor.
Faust + raketen were a fragile combo and that was your chance in the game, that moment when OKW had only these. Do you think you will be able to defeat faust + raketen + shreck with your available vehicles (mainly light and medium tanks) ?!
Through your complaints against the shreck blobs you made Reic operate these changes that are fantastic for me because I love OKW but are disastrous for balance, I am verry surprised none of you complained about the new volks! Are you sure you really tested the patch? Are you happy with the changes? Then is clear that you wanted OKW transform into even more noob friendly faction.
OKW has infinite posibilities and combos, because now the doctrines help even more. Did you see what panzerfusliers + stg volks + sturmoffitzier give, for instance? No? Then you should try it a bit. it will erase the smile on your faces.
Your only hope is, ironicaly, the thing you hated most: coming back to shreck upgrade on volks.
