That's fine if that's the intention, and I'd prefer if this was the case. However, as it is in-game, most LVs simply don't provide utility to anywhere near the degree the T70 does by late game.

The 222's gets 65 LOS at vet 3 and 'Infantry Awareness' at vet 1. Note that 'Infantry Awareness' has 65 range, meaning it's only useful before vet 3, or for detecting past LOS-Blockers. It also costs muni, is a timed ability, and only shows units on the mini-map.

The Luch gets cloaking at Vet 1 and suppressing fire at Vet 5. Cloaking can be detected by infantry at 20 range, and by 'detector' units at 25 range. Vet 5 is also very rare to reach.

The Puma gains the 'Aimed Shot' Ability at Vet 1.

The M5A1 gets 60 LOS at vet 3.

The AEC gets Target Tread at vet 1.

The T70 gets 45 LOS at vet 3, 70 if in Recon mode, and can capture points.


I'd say the T70 is easily in the lead here, considering the important of LOS in late-game; and this is in addition to it being arguably the strongest LV in the game, so it's also providing combat power even against late-game infantry (unlike 222). Meanwhile the 222, Luchs and M5A1 are nearly useless in late-game, even with vet.

1) Doctrinal vs. Non doctrinal
2) Doctrinal vs. Non doctrinal
3) Firefly isn't that good, comes later and costs more. This is minor compared to the other points.
4) AVRE is bad, actually. Crocodile costs as much as a heavy but cannot fight said havies, so it is not a part of the call in meta as it stands.
5) Point. I always forget that.
6) Not having the option is the point. Also - British & Commonwealth formed nearly 9 million serving. Hardly tiny. America only fielded 16, and germany 15 (all figures rounded off)
7) Doctrinal vs Non doctrinal
8) Doctrinal vs Non doctrinal

At best, with a commander, you can have almost as many units as a stock Ost roster has. Nearly.

Whereas ost commanders are many, with a wide option of abilities, and many similar options allowing granular choices

I bet it's cuz you don't have the right doctrines for Lost Glider. I can see why it's a controversial map. Hint: My ostruppen love Lost Glider, 75% winrate on that map with the doc. Allies need a doc that makes anti-garrison work easier.
