I play 1v1 only. I'm not an ost fanboy to make it clear. I like all fractions. I haven't bought the brits yet but played against them a few times. The conclusions are that you have to be much better skilled that your opponent to win. Another option is they make some super mistakes. You can't lose almost any units/manpower cause then you're doomed. Even if you win a few skirmishes in a row and use some really clever tactics and micro, one granade from your opponent and the game may be over for you. Ost units are sooooo much more fragile and really expensive to tech and buy. Its bad with inf. but even worse with vehicles. If your opponent is patient and doesn't overextend there's no way you can win. Only really bad players will let you destroy their tanks. Instead they will piecemeally kill your grens or panzergrens, mgs and so on. As coh 1 veteran, having played the game from when it was first released i have to say that ost/wehr balance has never been worse in 1v1. I have a feeling the game is biased against ost, which is a shame. That's why you shouldn't worry if you lose playing as wehr in 1v1. Its just difficult to win.

The penetration on the Cenatur gun is too high so that the Centuar usually kills the Puma very fast. Only way would be to use Puma on max range but then again Puma has only 80 pen on max range which leads to bounced shots. The JP4 is the best answer, it just comes out when the Centaur comes and scales far better into late game than the Puma. In addition the JP4 is one of the best vetting units in game, able to hold back several tanks on its own.

Also The JP4 needs 4 shots to take the Centaur while the Puma needs 6, unless it's vet 3.
