Why yes I'd like to write it.

Does this make me officially a writer for CoH2.org?




To watch a replay, you have to download it, put it in your replay folder, and then load it up in Company of Heroes 2.

To download a replay, click on the download button, either in the list of replays or while looking at the replay’s page.

Place your replay in the following folder:
My Documents\my games\Company of Heroes 2\playback

To save time you may wish to make a shortcut to this folder so that you can save downloaded replays directly to it.

Finally, load up Company of Heroes, click on the Replays button, and find the replay you downloaded.

Don't forget to Honor replays that you enjoy watching! Honoring replays helps the community find the best replays and it encourages players to post their best games.

Replays for previous versions of the game will not run correctly, so make sure you check the version number before downloading.

Liechtenstein and Luxemburg, eh? I bet there's at least one person who plays CoH 2 somewhere in those two countries.

Pretty much anything the Soviets can build is useful against a heavy infantry strategy. Conscripts + PPSh + Hit the Dirt = own the Ostheer infantry. AT gun = anti-infantry arty barrage. Sniper = nail the small Ostheer squads. Clown car w/flame Engineers = burn the Ostheer infantry. Clown car w/Penal Squad + 2 throwers = double burn the Ostheer infantry. Shock Troops + PPSh = shred the Ostheer infantry. T-34 = crush the Ostheer infantry.

Ostheer can't go heavy infantry if it wants to win against a good player. The Maxim might be better than I'm giving it credit for but there are so many options for fighting Ostheer infantry spam. If the Maxim is only good for that then the Maxim isn't good.

If you have CoH 2 installed, go to Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes 2\playback and put the .rec file in there, then load up the game and go to the replays menu.

Maybe the replays section should have a link at the top to an article about how to watch replays? Especially with all the new people it might be helpful to have that information right where people are likely going to want it.
