Either win decisively within the first 15 minutes, or be prepared for face...
... as Allies:
- Brummbar/KT wrecking your infantry/AT guns
- JT/Elefant wrecking your TD's off one by one (which are the only things that can hold Brummbar/KT back)
- Stuka Dive Bomb/Walking Stuka wrecking your support weapons and howitzers
- Dodging CAS-loiter skill-clicks with your tanks
- Vet5 OKW infantry (if you didn't pick Calliope)
... as Axis:
- Calliope and Crocodile wrecking your infantry/schrecks/support weapons
- Fireflies & Tulips picking your tanks off, one by one
- Sim city (if you didn't pick howitzers)
- An eventual, all-in with medium tanks trying to take out your OP JT/Elefant
By the point any of the above enter the game, veterancy and unit preservation skills no longer matter. You will eventually fail a dodge, anyway.
as someone who is in the top 50 4v4 for like 4 months, you are so wrong...
people don't use CAS, stuka loiters are also very rare.
same thing about crocodiles, brits normally go for air supremacy or arty cover.
axis is always spamming MG/mortars(leigs) then rush WM T4/stug spam and OKW goes for panthers and KT.
and in some open maps like hill 400 and steppes shit like AAHT is also used (and the thing is damn near impossible to take out before flaktruck arrive) effectively closing a big chunk of the map.
OKW lefhs are also widely used. and the thing is a direct counter to katyushas.
also, sniper spam on both sides are really effective now that all light vehicles are shit against snipers.
