Imperial dane is in my opinion by far the most fun caster to watch, his own games are tactically always a nice learning process. And I don't find him a German fan boy at all, as you say, he does more to keep the soviets strategies alive then the soviet fanboys do.

Dane has strong opinions against the OKW and Ostheer as well. Namely the OKW and blobbing up. He treats every faction equally. But that is just my opinion!

Cheers

Just to let you know, the reason he has gotten better about it now is because how obvious his axis opinions were before and has finally come to some sense. its taken a lot of MVDane to get him to be less bias

well a standard, combined arms, competitive strat I developed was not necessarily heavy penal but you could bend it:

Mech support commander

con
con
T1
penal
M3
penal
Guards
T2
Maxim or mortar
maxim or mortar or zis or Guards
whatever you need from here

This strat is heavy on munitions, but you can literally take on anything. Sprinkle in AT nades and healing whenever you get a break such as winning a good engagement.

The down side to this strat is it has a hard time dealing with late game infantry, It still lines up great vs Ostheer but against OKW you'll have to modify it again to be more maxim heavy or more penals.

So you all have pointed out that mgs in builds are not a good choice, and the main factor is because the mgs will always switch windows, Being able to manually target would at least make them more viable

Best way I have come up with is start floating man power around 3 CPs and dont activate the commander until 6 if you can afford to. Make sure you throw down your tech before you activate it, you might even consider spending some of that fuel while you are trying to float.

When you float you should have around 1k manpower in the bank when you activate, that way you can pump out a tank at every fuel interval for the next half hour or so unless you suffer heavy losses.

Make sure you use your armor more than your infantry, repairable damage is taken is free, Loosing models is not

LOL. You are clearly living in la-la land. It's nothing but OKW nerf after OKW nerf after OKW nerf. All allies do is scream "waaaah! waaaah!" on all coh2 forums 24hrs a day. There isn't a single OKW unit that isn't considered OP. Even volksgrens, the worst infantry in the game, are OP. Kubel was useless after release. So they finally buffed it, and forums exploded in tears, so they nerfed it and then nerfed it again. Now it costs fuel so I don't build it. More and more nerfs after that and I just totally quit playing OKW and now just play Wehr. Then they hit wehr with a pak40 nerf. I quit reading patch notes, all it is is axis nerf after axis nerf after axis nerf.

OKW can do nothing against the sovishit stain-ion support weapons spam. Only hope is to wait for 100 fuel stuka. Oh wait, that got ninja nerfed because "waaaah! wahhhh!" ISG is total garbage. No sniper, no mortar, no flamethrower. Stupid halftrack is useless. Speaking of halftracks, the wehr flame halftrack is garbage because of allied "waaaah! waaah!"

Allied whiners spammed the forums with "we get raped in 4v4s! waaah! waaaah!" so then they nerf OKW munitions income IN ALL GAME MODES. It's like... duhhhhh... if you really think there's a problem in 4v4s, and you really have to do something about it, couldn't you have... I dunno... reduced OKW cache income from allied players? No, apparently we have to nerf them in all game modes because whining allies moaning about how bad their cunts ache.

I could go on and on, but I'm bored with it. In short, I don't know what you are smoking, but I want some of it.

So I suppose I'll remove the cloud surrounding your head

1) OKW munitions income when it came out was the same as the fuel which made OKW infantry
more bearable. Relic decided that they needed more munitions to play with their upgrades
and mines such that it was terrible OP and now we have the in between income

2) Kuble was never bad, pathing made it a very unwieldy unit but instead of just workign on
that they buffed the crap out of it making it ridiculous to the point they had to nerf it
nerf it back

3) there are plenty of ways to deal with Soviet weapon spam (most of it involves a-moving
your blob o volks forward and throwing a grenade)

4) Volks have not been buffed or nerfed and yet here we stand knee deep in volks blobs
because it turns out they are the best scaling, most universally useful infantry with
their one shreck upgrade and 5 levels of vet

5) Pak40 had The Highest DPS in the game and got a well deserved nerf

6) its clear you never played before when the Flame halftrack was a 3 minute KV8. It
should never go back to the way it was

7) speaking of halftracks, guess what? I believe contrary to your beliefs OKW got a buff,
it in fact was the OKW flack track and now preforms greatly

8) you want to know why people continue to complain about OKW in team games? It is not
entirely about the faction itself but rather when Ostheer are paired with them. Vetting
your OKW players stuff or sending them fuel is absolutely game breaking It is true
Soviets have one commander that can fuel drop, which should also be fixed. but it is
not nearly as potent as the luftwaffa commander, nor as broken as vetting OKW units
Imagine a 12 minute KT. That is what happens when Axis abuse team games and why
there is so much "crying" about it

You have been absolutely blind to not see the reasons there seems to be so many "allied fanboys".
Ill give you a hint: It has to do with the truth of OKW and Ostheer being better factions.
