I really can't understand what you're saying beyond being frustrated by an OKW blob.

I could be wrong, but I feel like there are two main problems that crop up regarding war spoils. The first being that some players were shouting out how the game was becoming a pay2win model. I never thought that was the case and was more than happy to put a couple dollars down for content that was made post release. However, I can understand the stigma created.

My first thought when War Spoils was introduced was that this was an effort to remedy that complaint and probably an introductory phase for whatever may be planed for DoW3. Obviously the latter is speculation.

The problem is if you don't play religiously you have no hope of gaining what commander you want or what skins you want, or bulletins or some such. You're cast into a lottery that is incredibly frustrating. Instead of opening the box for what should be a joyous surprise, it is almost ALWAYS a disappointment -- this is not a good system.

Solution -

What I would consider a very practical fix would be to allow both commanders and skins to be purchasable, this allows players who aren't able to play as often as others a means to acquire these items as prior to WFA, and for bulletins, faceplates, victory strikes, commanders, and skins all to be purchasable by points that you accrue through gameplay.

This kills the dreaded lottery system as well as provides an actual concrete road of progression. A player will feel much more inspired to earn points if he knows he can spend them on what he WANTS. Obviously commanders would cost more war spoil points than a bulletin, but there's no waste. You have an actual route to earn what you want.

Using it in the field > doing math

It blows.

That's an incredibly narrow reply to someone who laid out actual numbers and points.

Soviets

Agreed.

OKW can be messy to figure out what you can and can't do with it, and is really punishing when you mess up.

Ostheer is set up so that you have a pretty narrow route of what you can or can't build to be effective. The general list being grens with lmgs, maybe an MG42 or two, paks, P4s, and doctrinal call in tank.

Soviets have a decent amount of wiggle room and a variety of routes to build off of.

Though, honestly, I'd say if you're set on 1v1's, you should really give USF a try unless you just have no desire for that.

stuka can win the war alone.
