I'd put it in the T4 of soviets or in the T0 building.
Like the King Tiger.

I disagree. The non call in heavy should be unique to the OKW - The KV-2 just needs it's commander to be improved.

Basically imagine an MG34 firing 20mm rounds HE.

More accurately a Vickers firing 20mm Fragmentation Proximity Fuze.

@Mr Someguy
The Diameter of the weapon matter very little and is in fact a good indication of someone who knows very little of cannons. While it is true that the 37mm (not 40mm) shell on the Ostwind could hold more explosive the 20mm Polsten fires at almost triple the speed (practical) that the Ostwind does and double the theoretical speed. If you wish to state that the Ostwind should be equal it has no basis in reality. As a gameplay element I disagree that it should be equal to the OSTWIND because the AXIS have a much more numerous and effective supply of AT infantry. I.E. the Shrek spam meta which has prevailed in recent patches.

Further more about balance, I did not hear the Axis player bases concern with balance when they so eloquently demanded that the M36 Jackson be nerfed into near uselessness or that the King Tiger be made stronger on the basis of "Historical Accuracy" so I ask you to hold back on your failed attempt at irony and focus on making a logical point.

The Ostwind needs a slight cost adjustment, that I do agree with. But only a discount to about 80 Fuel and perhaps a manpower increase. This would ensure that it remains useful.

Every faction can counter every faction, it's simply about predicting your opponents strategy. The British can counter the Stug, they can counter the Panzer 4, they can counter everything. However so can the Germans. The Germans can counter emplacement spam, they can counter heavy weapon positions and they definitely can counter the Centaur. StuGs are a great example of this. A stugv+ spotting scope backed up with a sniper or two will bring the British player to tears. Throw in a mortar and grenadier screen and the British wont be able to counter you.

@Raven
The fact that you have nothing at all to counter what I said and have chosen to indirectly call my opinion less valid through straw manning my valid opinion that many Axis players aren't used to not having the strongest armour is no better than ignoring a well constructed argument. By definition you are doing the same.

@ZeroCrack01

I would not mind a nerf to the Centaur, it's borderline broken. However I believe that it should simply have a negative modifier to damaging retreating infantry. I do believe that it should be superior in every regard to the OSTWIND and the fact it hard counters AT guns in my opinion is fine. StuGs hard counter them quite effectively.

Refering to Shrek blobs: OKW does it all the time, but for the past 2 games I've played OST Heer have started to Pzr Gren spam again. Mind you they were a 2v2 and a 4v4.

Um O....K....

Care to extrapolate?

Yeah I have to say if this is working as intended it needs be rewritten and the cost needs to go down. I mean seriously it isn't as good in my experience as it costs. I'd rather just use the Air Support Ability.
