Please, never advise new players/player to Blob

I know not to blob from previous RTS experience but at least he game me some useful information on how to fight against OKW

Without special commanders, Infantry sections need to use cover, as they get a bonus from being in it other than just the regular cover bonuses. Also if an OKW player puts a forward base, get one AT gun at its max range and either get vision or attack ground the truck, just keep it protected from an infantry push.

Remember without his Schwerer (gun-base) He has no late game tanks or infantry outside of his chosen doctrine, it is also worth over 100 fuel so it is a huge investment for him.

Also Infantry section blobs with Piat's win vs most things OKW can build early/mid game, throw in a few Bren's and you can almost Amove the map, just beware of Luch's as if they are good player your Piats will never hit.

This was incredibly informative thank you very much. Although I dont like the idea of blobbing too much I probably won't use that method. But again thank you very much for your reply.

I'm a fairly new player to COH2 but not to RTS(was plat in SC2)and am curious about a lot of option that the OKW have and what I can do against them, I don't know if this post belongs in this exact forum but i'm sure a mod will move it. I mainly play 2v2, myself as British and my friend as US but it seems like I don't have many ways to combat a good OKW player.

I have been using the well known Northweapon guide on 2v2 British but after we have secured a good half of the map it feels like the OKW has a better unit than what I do but for cheaper. I feel as though their infantry(starting unit, they may be their engineers) completely shut mine out so I cannot get aggressive if I try to build a mortar pit instead and it is quickly rushed down or the enemy mortars take mine out rather quickly since mine is static. If they lay their base down its got the turret on top that suppresses and penetrates armor so there's no getting past that defense. The OKW also back cap better than I can assume dominance.

Are the OKW the clear cut best army in this game or am I horribly misusing the British faction? Is there anyway to counter or stop the OKW from assuming dominance with their base-turret? What are the weakness of the OKW and how do I exploit and abuse it? Finally, what is the strength of the British army? I refuse to give up at this game, this is not a salt thread but rather a thread asking for help. Any and all tips are welcomed aside from shutting down my cry for help by saying "L2P", "Get better", or "Show Playercard".

- Have you considered posting in strategy section, post a replay of yours for recommendations of your game play instead of posting in balance section ? Posting in this thread imply you are blaming balance

- Balance section is not really recommended for new players ^^ and not even for good ones, this section is a trash section

- Generally we use OKW and not OBK

- And please, give some space in your wall of text ;D

Alright man I'll edit the text so there's some space and throw this bad boy in the strategy section, thanks
