rita, when are you doing usf picture week?

That was the first week if you saw Cookiez

But Rita if you do one of Cookiez I demand he be a Rear Echelon

Rita keep up the good work they look fantastic and you have a very unique art style, when you end it you should do something similar to Elbe Day except with all 5 factions just hanging out together as friends not just the allies

I played on your map on Trics stream, I found the size is an issue and flanking Mortars and other artillery units is hard to pull off with infantry units forcing the playing to get his own indirect

So if you can expand the size of the map that would be great

There is too many healthy buildings you can garrison thus leading to the battle of the house with infantry from both sides fighting each other while hiding in a house

Speaking of buildings reduce the health or remove buildings on cutoffs to prevent "hahaha I have an MG on your cutoff you lose"

The Townhall building provides an advantage for player in the top right spawn while garrisoned as the other player has no choice but to charge it on mostly open ground or run around to flank

It doesnt provide as much advantages to the bottom player as the top right players approaches are either covered by shotblockers or theres buildings he can easily garrison

The cutoff for the top right is covered by an MG which is fustrating when harassing of flanking as you pretty much get suppressed for no reason

Visually its a nice map though

To be honest Japan would make a very interesting faction to add and will bring some unique faction mechanics to the table

Italy could also make a unique faction even with German support but Afrika Korps is gonna be the bland copy paste weapons and tanks from Wehrmacht and OKW again which for the Axis is starting to get boring

Japan would bring something fresh to the table and with Americans and Brits fighting alongside Soviets,I&R StGs, Pershings, Comets many people wouldnt mind Japan being added with some weapons/vehicles that saw little to no use fighting alongside Germans

with Japs faction look-a-like i'd go like this:
(faction mix of ostheer, soviets and OKW)

HQ: Engies (standard 4 man, rifles), Rifles (5 man, rifles, some nade, AT nade, upgrade with LMG or SMG)
T1: MG, mortar and sniper
T2: light AT gun (37mm i think), AT rifles squad (some 5 man with semi-auto AT rifle) and some 222 alike vehicle but with no 20mm cannon but with MG's (forgot it's name)
T3: some mix of light tank, tank destroyers, HT's and early med tank - light tank like Ha-Go, TD like Ho-I (like SU-76 but with better penetration) med tank like Chi-Ha
T4: since brits got Comet that never fought in WW2 then why not give somethink better to japs - some standard med - Chi-Nu, heavy like Chi-To. some arty stuff, so SPG or rocket SPG, maybe SNLF squad


call-ins and other stuff: 150mm mortar, 75mm flak (similar to flak88 but with worse gun) flame tank (with 5 flamers around it), some SPG's or other arty types, Ha-To (which is like Sturmtiger on halftrack), some elite infantry


Japanese faction would be tbh the most interesting army in terms of combined arms, firepower and flexibility

Overall its a good army design Barton, I wouldnt mind Japan being added with something similar to this

But question for you and everyone else, who would want an Anzac commander for Brits and USMC commander for USF if Japan is added

I dont know much about Soviet-Japan conflicts in WW2 but they could get a Pacific commander aswell

Relic should hire you right now!

The King Tiger is there so that OKW has another option instead of rebuilding a Panzer Schwerer if it was lost

If it was to be added to Commanders which Commands of the 8 would it be added to and what abilities would it replace?
