What we do not have yet, is the win ratios between certain factions EX: USA vs OKW. Looking at the statistics gathered by LEgend, we can that Axis have higher winrates in 2v2 and up. We cannot say they are OP yet, but the numbers show that there is something wrong like Luddeemann said.
Since ths data from the top 200 player, their winrate will be higher than 50 percent. When they beat or lose against someone outside of top 200, that information will be recorded as well. Obviously top 200 players will perform better than those < rank 200. However, looking at the data for 3v3 and 4v4, it seems like even top 200 Allied players have consistent trouble in winning! Scary thought eh
German equipment at the beginning of WWII was trash. It was trash because it had to be assembled and prepared under the eye of a world still unimpressed with what it had been doing in WWI (and it lost at).
German start of the war tanks were terrible, their infantry armament was mediocre, and their infantry no better trained than the rest of the world.
Good leadership and a modern approach to war against a France trying desperately to fight like it was WWI won them the fight. Not technological or training superiority.
If people actually spent ten sodding minutes researching history with attention to real world performance and statistics and introduction dates? This whole 'Omg Germany super engineer WIZZARDS' myth wouldn't be so prevalent.
It bugs me. Learn your history, people.
In 1945, specifically, Germany was suffering massive resource shortages, manpower shortages, poor quality and often disrupted production, and the burden of a government sinking huge amounts of cash into white elephants like the Maus project (Lol @ that hilarious waste of space). Their air superiority was gone, their indirect fire batteries scattered, their armies divided or gone.
So yeah, no. Germany should arguably be the army with the least access to vehicles and elite troops. And yet, the perpetuation of poorly understood recounts of history means we get the exact opposite. It's sad.
Good post! France and the USSR actually had very good equipment and tanks. THe USSR actually had the T34/76 already which could roflpwn all German armor at the time of Barbarossa. France actually had more tanks than Germany at the beginning of the Invasion, but suffered from strategic failures not ubermensch superiority
