Camping till KT is and always has been a decent OKW tactic. If they were not supposed to be played defensively at all then they probably would look a lot more like USF.

SO now campy OKW will outcamp OH who is supposedly defensive? I've always thought OKW to be a more like SU: aggressive inf play than follow up by light vehicle or rush to PzIV.

Isn't it ironic how cancerous OKW turtleing will counter cancerous British turtleing?
Please stop equating cancer cities that can be invincible by pressing a mere button and repair themselves with 120 fuel OKW trucks that can´t be braced and delete a whole tech tier when destroyed and crew weapons that can be two shot killed by tanks.

Recon+ IL2 bombstrike and ISU-152 is in a doctrine.

Technically, Zeroing Artillery (from the same doctrine) is a pretty dank ability vs heavy-Brit cancer; It auto-deletes every single emplacement on a decent radius and gives exactly 0 fucks about brace.

Just when I thought that non-doc MG34 & Snares would render Elite Armour one of the most powerful doctrines in the game (for teamgames), Relic had to go ahead and revamp that commander. I guess it's now becoming an interesting dilemma!

OKW has always held an incredible potential for turtling (T4, durable retreat points, IRHT, etc). However, turtling always boils down to who has long-range superiority. This is because, obviously, you can't turtle if you are constantly being shelled upon. I wonder if we are going to see Leigfeist-style type of cancer from the OKW again, given the changes to the doctrine.

they lack recon. In one of the is shocks + armor detection + cons repairs + isu and bombing run combo

and in second doc. there are guards + mark (not really recon) + stealth at guns + isu n bombing run combo.


So no reckon all in all ;)

When will Soviets be allowed to have a good tank and howitzer in the same commander?
This is just going to make the OKW trailer park even more obnoxious when they can just shell anything while stalling for a King Tiger

While I agree their combos are less potent than eyes in the sky followed by unstoppable heavenly fist, they have plenty of their own, and in team games they never lack.

We are talking about Brit Cancer Commander which has its own offmap to delete any revealed arty, and if it is a game with another Brit player, recon flares will make sure you can drop it without risking a unit. Or you can use free recon on a Bren carrier.

If you are American the options are easy as pie. You get recon planes when you get Shermans with the Major, or you can get something from a doc, and many American Docs have arty that is harmless to all but stationary targets.

Soviets have only the bombing run, but they do have recon overflight in a couple of docs and are most limited in this respect.

Not trying to be contrary, because I understand your comment was a bit tongue in cheek, and I completely agree that the Wehr version is better, but in my experience Allies have no problem getting LoS on static arty.

Yea, great. Instead of making new arty unit for OKW, they copy LeFH... Relics are sooo lazy.

Btw, that's good, that OKW will have some kind of howitzer support now. Even if it was their weakpoint as faction. Maybe they will fix weakpoints of other factions too, like "nondoc mid-heavy tanks for USSR"?



If you put it that way everyone will start demanding more units. How about a non-doc puma for Ostheer in tier 2 to f*** off all light armor.

Cool, artillery! Though, I haven't seen much usefulness for on-map artillery / AT emplacements in general in high level play.

BORING

How about 2 STGs and 1 G43 that improves long range dps?! Call it "War Material Package" or something idk :D



What about 1 STG 1 MP40 1 g43 and 1 MG42 and call it 'lul package' :sibHyena:

Right, major has not a non-doc recon. *facepalm*
Brits have a doc-arty which can be called on FoW.
Soviets are fucked though.
