A friend and I get frequently pummeled as USF/SU in 2v2. He plays Calliope Commander. I usually take Guard Motor or Mechanized Support. We generally do very well early game, until we inevitably loose our Stuart/T70 and the first PIV hits the field. Even if we can hurt the PIV we can rarely finish it off and it is the start of the dig in phase for axis.
What do you think of the Rifle Company these days? Because as much as I love rocket artillery, usually if we are doing well at that stage, the Calliope makes us win even more/faster, but if we are behind, it doesnt help much. I thought if we'd go straight to multiple Easy Eights on the other hand, we could contend better in the mid game.
Hi Cogetama,
Atm in 2vs2 AT Brits+ Soviet is the strongest combo. Maybe you wanna try this? Brit goes for arty cover and soviet something with guarde.
Don't go Easy Eights in the most cases. Calliope or Pershing doc is better.
The point is you guys have to hold the stuart and t70 alive. They are important keyunits. I agree that Jackson are atm very hard to play. So normally the soviet guy had to deal vs the tanks. Like Su85 orsu76 ( but there you need 2-3), or T34/85. Also Zisguns and usa paks are needed. Get 2 bazookas on your Etaptroup.
And here we come again to my first point. Soviet and USA lack in good tanks. Especially vs OKW tanks. Thats why brits are so great. Chromwells, Firefly, Comets are great tanks.
With soviets+ usa you have a good early midgame, but lack little bit in lategame.
