The OKW Grand Offensive commander is pretty ridiculous. It will make tanks easily able to counter tank destroyers, their hard counter. I can only imagine the giant cheese of blitzkrieging, HEAT shell shooting, aura buffed heavy tanks rushing allied armor.

Thus, my suggestions are:
> Remove the blitzkrieg ability from the offensive package. Most tanks already have it as a vet ability anyway.
> Remove the commander aura from Tiger, just a common Tiger is good enough.
> Trade the HEAT shells for the Breakthrough's Assault Artillery or Luftwaffe's Valiant Assault. This will make the doctrine more offensive oriented while keeping the HEAT shells exclusive of the Elite Armor commander (which it should be, since it's such a strong ability).

I nearly agree with everything you wrote:
I really like your idea of replacing HEAT shells with Breakthrough's Assault Artillery, Off map arty with shells and smoke would fit a lot better to the theme of the doctrine.
I also dont want to see HEAT shells in an other OKW commander because players will have even less incentives to chose Elite Armor if this ability is available in a probably better doctrine.

The only reason for not putting in Assault Artillery in the new OKW doctrine is the similarity between Breakthrough and Grand Offensive: Both would have Panzerfüssies and Assault Artillery.

But lets face it: Breakthrough and Grand Offensive are nearly identical themes. I say: Lets make Grand Offensive the good version of Breakthrough. Breakthrough will include the JT and reworked AT Panzerfüssies after the patch and will be -somehow- OKW's AT commander. Doctrine should be renamed then and if possible get a revamp with Firestorm in the future.

The

Panzer 2 for Wehr commander: Strategic Tank Reserves Doctrine.

I also thought about making Panzer II available. The unit would fit to the theme and would give this Wehrmacht commander a unique unit. The question is if the Luchs would have a real role: 222 does the same job but is 30 fuel cheaper. Why build a Luchs that comes a lot later?
But the idea itself is interesting, feedback of players would be really appreciated here. Would they prefer a Luchs or a better PZ IV?

I think Sturmpanther should open specific threads for every faction when then first version of the new commanders will be released for testing.
Looking back at the "Revamp commander thread" it was not helpful for discussions that every feedback went in only 1 thread.

I have problems since yesterday, never had any problems before. My internet is finde, but i have occasionally lags in game.

Hello, there are known issues with Input Lag (Delay) of commands, that sometimes include things like that. But Reconnecting to relic servers does not work seems very weird!

Yes, i think so too. My mates dont have issues at all (all Germans).
