Yeah, I am really surprised more people don't go Brummbar even in 1's, it's absurdly strong against infantry. Kicked my ass the few times it's been used against me. People seem to be allergic to Tier 4 in 1v1 though.
I guess that is just the nature of 1v1. It's risky to skip t3 as you might get overrun by T70s, shermans or cromwells.
In 2v2 and upwards, everyone and their mother goes Brummbar atm... which is getting a bit tiresome. Thank god Brummbar gets nerfed very soon.
About the first picture: Does it really happen almost everytime? Or just from time to time cuz then it's normal. (it can happen if 1 of the players has horrible connection or if someone presses Alt-F4 early enough)
And about the second picture it's the same question: Does it happen always or just from time to time? Cuz lately, nearly all of us encounter these server issues from time to time
SU76 isn't bad but it simply isnt the unit it used to be anymore, with the old RoF it was kinda cheesy if you spammed it (and cuz it had a free barrage), but the abysmal accuracy wasnt changed at all so it's a bit meh.
Obviously I can't state why it is the way it is. However, it's not really an issue. The UKF command vehicle aura is far stronger than any of the other auras. The command panzer IV aura is really strong, but you get something similar to diminishing returns (the aura mainly matters for the one vehicle being focus fired). If the british command aura affected allies too, it would be toned down to keep its power level mostly the same.
Do you know the aura bonus from a vet 4 command panther? I am just curious
Totally noob allies gameplay. Decent tank's micro though.
1. Soviet noob didnt use his Il2 strafe ability EVER. Just saving hundreads of ammo for nothing. That cost a win actually in a late game. Idiot.
2. British goes to absolutely useless AEC with 0 micro skill.Car dead in 10 minutes. Fuel and tech wasted. Go to the god damned bofors, at least it will be a usefull defence investement during the whole game. And those Land Matress barrages on a lonely MG-42 units... So pathetic.
Ok about commanders: If it's a map like rails and metal or crossing in the woods (open map, few houses only, flanks are easy to hold), then always go Jaeger Armor doctrine (the one with elefant and spotting scopes)
On any other map, lightning war (the one with JU87 AT loiter, panzer tactician and command p4) is never a wrong choice.
I think both of these docs are part of the starter loadout so you dont have to buy them. You dont need any other commander later
About build orders: it really depends on everything man... the map, the opponent's factions, what your teammate is doing etc.
vs brits for instance you probably want an early mortar and at least 2 HMG42s... vs soviet t1 you want to get more than 1 grenadier etc.
If you are not sure, standard openings like MG42, gren, gren, mortar/sniper are always ok
And your goal as wehr basically is it to hold on long enough until you have a setup that is very hard to counter. Dunno if you are a t3 or more of a t4 player, but t4 has the advantage that it works on all maps. On elefant maps you can basically rush brummbar (t1--> t2-->t4) straight into elefant, and on the other maps you can rush brummbar as well followed by panthers and JU87 loiter assaults.
