Play any factions. I play most nights for a couple of hours Australian AEDT. Not high on leaderboards or anything just around 500 ish I think. Please add me on Steam soldier_boy_2010.

I saw this game live, the OKW player played really well with a lot of patience. Deserved the win. |
Of all the factions so far, USF and Soviet suffers terrible late stock unit. While they gain early advantage, the smile soon fade off as late game hits.
This topic is focus on USF and Soviet late game. Clearly, there is a way to make them better than just spamming T34 76 and sherman with 75mm gun.
My proposal for USF
Add an upgrade at major building, this upgrade is called "Refit War Machine" and requires major, captain and lieutenant to upgrade. The upgrade cost 200mp 60 fuel and is USF late tech.
Refit War Machine will allow USF to access to 3 new units: M36 Jackson, M7 Priest and Sherman Jumbo(or just M4A3 76mm if Relic cannot make new unit)
At major tech, replace M36 with M10 Wolverine.
Replace doctrinal Priest with upcoming Sherman Calliope.
Replace doctrinal M10 with M26 Pershing.
My proposal for Soviet
Move T34 76 to tier 3
Move T34 85 to tier 4
Move T70 to doctrine, replace T34 85 with proper CP (4CP)
Add an upgrade to Soviet tier 3, cost 180mp and 60 fuel to access KV1.
IS2, ISU-152, T34-85, Jackson, Pershing. L2P Issue. |
Relic please fix this! I make 4 x greens and a move them in a blob with LMG, but Rifles with vet 3 keep throwing grenades on them and wiping them. Please Relic nerf nades and nerf rifles, as this should not be allowed to happen. |

Okay, a dive bomb is one example. But, can you suggest another one to counter the Bofors under brace structure? Railway Artillery doesn't kill it. Shooting at it with Jadgtiger or KT or SturmTiger doesn't kill it.
OH, OKW are spending hundreds of menpowers and fuels to counters the Boofors but my mens tenks and mens keep getting killwd. |
Is this ability overperforming? Whilst activated a Bofors can withstand a direct hit from a Stuka dive bomb, two direct Stuka Zu Fuss hits, any off map artillery. It just doesn't make sense to me that 160 munis can be spent on a dive bomb and a comparitively cheap ability like Brace Structure counters it.
What are others thoughts on this? |
As the title suggests, what are some strategies Ostheer can use against Brits? What works and what doesn't? |
This is 2v2 based play.
I don't want to get into any balance discussions regarding this, there may be an issue at the moment with balance but it's not what I am trying to achieve from making this thread.
I want to know what Ostheer players are doing to contend with USF infantry, and what works and what doesn't.
I have tried the following:
2 x MG's and 3 x Grens with LMG - I find that they just smoke the MG's and Grens even with LMG do not compete. I had two Vet 3 MG's in one game but they also use the Captain ability that breaks supression.
2 x Flame Pios, 3 x Grens with LMG - They just don't compete with BAR Rifles, flamers get focused down and Grens are outclassed and bleed MP.
2 x Snipers, 3 x Grens with LMG - I find that the snipers fire too slow and constantly get bum rushed and forced away, causing a loss of map presence.
3 x Stormtroopers with MP44 and 3 x Grens - Although these guys are quite good, they come after two CP and cost 100 mun each. Plus they also get outnumbered and overwhelmed by rifles.
