It's still non-doc though. You're almost always going to tech at least medics at some point. I think it you really want recon then the side tech and unit isn't going to hurt you that much though the fuel cost kind of stings. Still, the benefits of having it always available in any doctrine is there and I personally prefer the slow recon pass over the sometimes erratic loiter. I feel like the pass almost always shows you what you want to see before getting shot down whereas the loiter can sometimes be a complete dud... Also the regular LOS of the IR HT is still very good (yes I know it's still mostly a meme unit but it's not like it doesn't have it's uses)

I agree with this, especially because OKW benefits from fully teching by unlocking one of the few good heavy tanks left.
Fully teching is always a good investment because if the opponent happen to outplay you by late game with vehicles you can use the stockpiled fuel to pull a King Tiger, so overall IR HT feels worth by lategame when the medium marathon ended 10 fuel for an 80 range vision unit is very helpful.

Hardly a proper comparison when it leaves out the bit where the 223 brings the utility of being able to give any resource sector +100% income... That stuff costs something on top of combat performance.

This sinks the unit as a light vehicle, this feature should be part of an optional upgrade set aside from the combat upgrade because the timing of the 223 is horrible for its combat performances.
Alternatively, the 221 should come after the first truck is fully set up directly as a 223 and have a proper pricing, and have a fuel upgrade add the income boost feature.

Or the environment in which these units start. Which is against min 1 Panzerfausts and T0 Raketens for the M20, and defenseless Infantry Sections and Rifles for the 221.

USF and UKF start with 20 fuel, OKW with 10
USF unlocks m1 at guns or 50cal after spending 35 fuel.
The WC51 upgraded counters 221 and has no requirements whatsoever except munitions
UKF has upgraded UC after spending 30 fuel, exactly the cost of 221 + teching.
The 221 has the exact same armor as pre nerf m3 scout car (it was changed to 3.8 with health boost to make the unit more survivable to autocannons while keeping the ttk against small arms identical), which comes after 25 (10+15) fuel, meaning that Ostheer will face it WITHOUT ATG, so fausts/at nades are clearly intended as soft counters for both units

Cheapest if you go for BG strats, both stock combat infantries regenerates with vet.

That vet bonus comes too late, and no cheapest what? Ukf, soviets and usf are all cheaper

What's soviet stopgap AT vehicle when they go T1?

Su76 in Tier 3, or T70

UKF would like to have a word.

So you are confirming that OKW is as dead as UKF

Best supporting infantry.

Bullshit, volks are just trash compared to everything mainline

OKW players are trash.

Rich coming from a Soviet fanboy that doesn't even play the game

I've been wondering for a long time how to make Scavenge Doc a more favourable doc but it had lots of flaws. Even the earlier Ostwinds don't seem to have been enough to attract ppl (runs into med tank).

The volks change is an interesting one and I'm curious to see how ppl play out with it and if armor-centric builds are more likely with the better sustain.

I find the BTG into Ostwind rush to be a decent strat because the commander has infiltration grenades and Jägers helping me keep the upper hand against infantry without light vehicles, but I agree that the commander is weak. I don't think that volks repair kit is enough to make it a good choice. I think that the 105mm offmap is not really functional neither as area denial tool nor as off map to bust weapon crews. It should either deliver the shells faster and in a larger area or lose the munition gimmick and become a time on target 2

Buffing the current functionality of Airbourne Assault is the wrong way to go imo. Luftwaffe Ground is already one of the stronger OKW doctrines strictly because of Falls and Valiant Assault. I'd rather see it changed into a less impactful Suppression loiter, made a little cheaper, and maintain the Fallschirmjäger reinforcement quirk as it's primary function so it's not a bait ability for people who don't understand that it's awfully useless.

221 I'd like to see either tried at 10F+15F for faster field presence, or 15F+10F for just faster lockdown conversion vs true Lights. That way your ROI from locking down Fuel would only take 8:20 to pay for itself instead of 10:00, and it'd be able to retire into being an Opal Blitz at a more reasonable timeframe and actually work as a way to generate a little extra income in the long term since it's impact is pretty much negligible right now.

People underestimate the 221 though, it's got some meat on it's bones and isn't terrible at bleeding. Problem is that it's not worth 30 Fuel more than a kubel since it just slows you down too much and you're often just better not building it at all.

Falls are a sidegrade of Obersoldaten with ambush mechanics, they are not a dealbreaker in the slightest, especially in a doctrine that lacks heavy tanks, artillery. The true reason the doctrine had relevancy was the smoke recon, which was and still is a godsend for 1vs1 OKW
The doctrine has already a powerful and versatile muni sink, so fixing another one wouldn't even buff it that much.

I don't see how that improves much of the 221, the 223 is absolutely not worth 25 or 30 fuel. The upgraded 223 is a MUCH WORSE M20 scout car that greatly lacks in dps The 221 armor and health stats match those of the Universal Carrier and WC51. Unless the timing can be lowered, the 221 shouldn't pay any extra fuel besides the 15 fuel cost. If the timing would make 223 too strong with a munition upgrade, then it should be enough to lock it behind first truck set up, but upgrading from 221 to 223 shouldn't delay your teching or cost further manpower, it just doesn't deserve it.
People don't "understimate" the 221, they rightfully ignore it because by performance/timing and performance/cost ratio it is by far one of the WORST light vehicles, arguably the worst, including all doctrinal vehicles
