Seriously this Match up is just stupid. Any decent player (and Im talking ladder 500 and up, NOT average players...) will just mess you up early game.

Bryan , I know you are a good player, so Im inclined to follow your advice. But Im curious, you dont go for ANY support weapons? no HMGs or Mortars? Grens feel so damn weak vs US early game.

Title says it all.

I am not interested at all in anything beyond 1v1s. Maybe Im not the only one and it would be great and clearer to have sections for the various game modes.

Not sure how complicated this is. But it would be helpful.

Not sure what your question is here?

Do you want to know how to take down EZ8s? Or do you want to know why Shreks do no damage vs frontal EZ8 armor?

To the first question Id answer... Pak40s, Teller Mines, Stugs, P4s and of course Tigers Tanks.

To the second question...Ez8s are above average Medium Tanks...so yes shrecks can bounce on frontal armor, but not all the time. And PGs with shrecks are a soft counter to Medium Tanks. You need to combine them with other AT for them to be effective.

Can't say I own the doctrine, but one thing that immediately pops out in your build that would combine nicely with the doctrine is the halftrack. Medical drops+the halftrack reinforcement would be a fairly potent combo to keep you on the field(and easier to use then a forward healing bunker).

Very cool! ...I will try this, I am unused to the HT I must admit. But I see how this combos well.

Im curious as to who uses this Doctrine in 1v1?
I have recently been trying out this Doctrine myself and am having some success with it. Mostly vs USF. I would like to post replays soon.

The way I see it, the most annoying thing to me playing against US is the lack of map control in early game and how much it can reduce the resources income (especially fuel), slowing down tech and the arrival of German Panzers.


But using this Doctrine I find myself more easily holding off US early because of the medical Supply buff, and as long as I have one fuel point, I can drop (for a low cost of 200mp) 50 fuel very quickly, enabling me to tech to T3 and be in range for a 13-15min P4.

I open with standard build : 3-4 Grens, HMGs ...T2 then Pak and Pgrens. I use the medical drop as often as I feel its useful. When I have space, I drop fuel, go T3 and get a fast P4 which puts a huge dent in a mid game strategy for US (they wont expect it so soon).

After that you can either drop more fuel or munitions, if you want to use the FireBarrage or Stuka Bomb strike, which are both very useful. Personally I use the Fire Barrage most of the time...as it is faster and clears out AT guns and MGs rapidly.


I havent tried this vs Soviets (cuz lack of heavy tanks) , but It possibly could work if you use the fuel drops to go to T4 and get some panthers.


2 questions for you guys....1: Anyone use this doctrine in 1v1 and can post replays? 2: What does the medical supply buff do EXACTLY??? (cuz it seems to buff BOTH attack and defense)


Thanks!!
