How many choices do you think OKW has? A lot less than soviets.
Soviets can go T1 or T2 right off the bat, or even 4 conscript opener. All effective against OKW.
OKW has one choice. volks. What do you want to OKW player to do? Producing nothing because it's "spam"?
Soviet player complaining about "not enough viable tactics" is pretty sad.
This.
But if I remember correctly the forum voted that the soviets was the faction that most needed an overhaul.
The myths in this forum is alive and kicking.
