PzII please.

It is a good vehicle, but it will come extremely late with T4 in this faction, as it will have the Ostheer teching system. If the fuel prices are also to be normalized for OKW units, it will mean 75 fuel for the Luchs; in comparison to Ostwind still not outrageous, but something to consider. Considering this I don't understand why there are so many votes for the Luchs.

You mean... like ISU or JT for example?

Its op, the question is not 'if' but 'when'.

Good point, they are a bit slow and too hesitating with it but at least they do something about it every other patch. Not so with Obersoldaten. You would think they had the perfect opportunity when they nerfed all LMGs, but guess which LMG unit got the smallest nerf and only in exchange for a damage buff on the K98 to compensate?


As I said, I won't complain if they nerf Obersoldaten and overhaul the faction design. I just don't think either allied or OKW players will be happy if Relic just nerfs Obersoldaten and don't change anything about the overall faction design.

Ugh the handicapped economy thing again. Hasnt this been shown time and again as really no handicap or do we need to go over that again.

The only times I have seen people write about it in this forum it has been done by people without any further reasoning apart from "oh but OKW has ressource transfer" (which obviously just means you handicap your other ressource even further) or people who don't even understand basic mathematics and use wrong multiplicator to normalize costs. Or they assume that reduced teching costs makes up for everything because you apparently only ever build one vehicle per game. So please go ahead.

And yes it will change things.

Really? You think people won't just start (or rather continue) complaining about these things next?

-Volksgrenadiere Schreck blobs destroy tanks!
-Flak Headquarter damages tanks!
-Jagdtiger is too powerful!
-Stuka is too precise and kills units and is too difficult to destroy!
-Kübelwagen is ruining the game!
-Panzerfüsiliers are too strong! (depending on how heavy Obersoldaten nerf is more people might just switch to those)
-Puma is sniping vehicles, has more penetration than medium tanks in close range, has smoke launcher and is too fast!
-Panther has armor like a heavy tank and mobility like a medium tank and the machine guns kill infantry, my Jackson doesn't penetrate it with every hit!
-King Tiger has too much armor!
-King Tiger comes too early in team games with fuel drops from team mates!


That is even before we consider buffing some of the remaining units (as was suggested as a trade off for nerfing Obersoldaten). What you think will happen if we buff units not mentioned in this list yet?

-How can OKW start with such a powerful unit as Sturmpioniere? (remember how people complained about them in the past already?)
-Raketenwerfer comes at T0, is the cheapest anti tank gun and demolishes vehicles and it can even enter buildings, what is this?
-AA Halftrack is now as absurdly powerful as USF AA Halftrack, how am I meant to kill it without a Puma?
-Jagdpanzer IV is so much better than SU-85 and Jackson!
-leIG, well, just remember how people complained before it got nerfed
-Sturmtiger kills my whole army!


I will just skip the other doctrinal units.

obers are completely optional for OKW right now. they get by just fine on volks blobs. obers need to be nerfed, even if their cost comes down.

If you lose to an army that consists exclusively of Volksgrenadiere you must be doing something terribly wrong.

Weaker Obersoldaten for lower cost I don't see how it will change anything, it will just mean that OKW will blob even more.

I quite enjoy the streams of Fahu (Gamegamblers) and StephennJF.
