OKW is built to different standards than every other faction.

or in any other building.

it's kind of like a callin unit but it's not and it's non-doctrinal. if it was doctrinal and used the callin system i wouldn't complain about the unit specifically.

what i am arguing against is OKW getting full utility out of forward placed bases and still being able to build a VI B if they lose them. if they build their buildings in their base they have less map control and more safety. i see the VI B as being a unit produced by all the buildings together and put in the main building because there's room there and it adds filler.

Whole point of having fuel, ammo, CP, teching etc in COH/RTS is about timing when units can first hit the field and how frequent they can do that.
Having to set up all 3 trucks is just another timer on limiting the fastest possible time player can pull out strong unit like VI B in a game, nothing more.
In case of OKW VI B is where it is because it forces player to make all 3 building instead of skipping tiers closely tied with OKW fuel starvation. It prohibits OKW player to get this unit by relying on CP and carrying on with shreck Volks negating fuel starvation design.

Having forward truck offers it's advantage but also carries it pitfalls. That forward truck is in range of whole array of long range weapons and it's not that easy to keep it 'open for business'. Try playing OKW and you will understand.

Your whole argument goes against entire point of designing the game like that, because you don't seem to understand why the game is designed like that in the first place.

It's pointless discussing this anymore for me, I completely disagree with entire reasoning behind your argument.

I really hate RNG dependent penetration, misses, bounced shots, etc. Period

It will always boil peoples blood when they do everything right just to be punished by RNG God for no good reason.

I am all for exact damage from every round, no misses. If a tank shows his ass to my ATG and I have clear shot and range, I don't want to bounce 1 shot and miss 2.
Especially if I lost expensive unit to get it down to kill-able health.

IMHO its just stupid and unnecessary

I think people are blowing effectiveness of Volk shrecks way out of proportion.

Cons + Penals are quite effective vs OKW. Volks do very little damage to shermans/t34's with frontal shots and will bled MP and often get squad wiped from tank rounds.
If Allied tanks are supported and not flanked on their own, they are not that easy to kill as many here are suggesting.

US blobs can take on OKW blobs.

It's ugly tactic to face and play (for me at least) but it's definitely not 'here comes the volks shreck blob, better type in GG'

Please


P.S. don't compare Cons to volks like for like, there are other units that are part of game like Maxims, mortars, zis barages, etc etc.......

Think PPSH is just fine.
I think Cons die to fast and in large number to Armor shots. (like most other infantry) but thats another story

I think Sturmpioneer range being at 3 is way too low, it should go back to where it was at 8. That would make them work well at their jobs without having to basically hump the legs of any infantry they engage.

For reference, Almost all SMG users now have a range of 10! So this would still put them below them in terms of optimal damage and range, despite the fact that they use Assault Rifles.

I mean hot damn there were people saying Shocks were great except for the fact they had to hump legs to do damage! Relic has basically inflicted the past treatment of Shocktroopers onto Sturmpioneers.

Yeah but you have Kubel (fast mobile MG) to pin infantry for you. And if you go Kubel extra Sturmpios, they will tear new ass to all infantry at start 90% of time.
Any infantry that doesn't retreat is as good as dead. Those same Sturmpios quickly fix Kubel while you are capping the point and off it goes to harass infantry on approach.
This gives you time to set up ambushes.

Later that same Kubel is excellent spotter for your Luch as it almost never gets hit by ATG while moving, giving you chance to flank that ATG, after it revealed its position and where its facing. And Stormpios again fix any damage while being a threat to any infantry that tries to flank or close in.

This combo is very powerful in my opinion, as far as I can see from games I played.

The only window I find OKW to be vulnerable is window before there is enough fuel for 1st Panther.
I cannot see any other deficiencies in OKW vs allies.

P.S. after playing few games I also realized why a lot off people lose with OKW. They don't get that panther but instead go for Heavier armor that costs more fuel. Extending that window by quite a bit

Thats my view on OKW anyways, you are free to disagree
