In this video I break down the new Ostheer commander, Strategic Reserves. I also talk about some general faction changes to units like the Panzer Grens, Ostwind and Stug. Enjoy!

You missed 1 important thing. While Spearhead is active on Tiger Ace - it's MGs suspress decently! I like that Ostherr is more relevant now - it was more a nice faction I think.

The camoflage on the mobile observation 251 comes really handy at keeping it on the frontline to reinforce your troops without risking to loose it to AT guns, it really helps with ostheer's lack of forward retreat point. Additionally it may be used to set up an ambush as units garrisoned inside are also hidden.

I used this commander in DLC mission that cannot build a good medium tank in 1941.. the panzer IV ausf j is very usefull

A clarification on the Tiger Spearhead ability. The gun is not locked but rather limited to 90 degrees toward the front so it has an arc of fire like an mg and much wider than turretless TDS or Elephant. Thanks for the Commander detail, I’ve been waiting for this video. In my lineup I have this commander, Special Ops, and the Scavenger Doctrine. IMO for the cost the Command Panther still locked behind CP is a better tank if you can wait for it. It would be an interesting compare video Hans? 🙂

Really useful analysis although would be amazing to have some advice which Doctrine counters which one. And most importantly which doctrine not to use against specific doctrines. For eg. if a doctrine is armor heavy, then how to balance its infantry capabilities and vica versa. What specially grinds my gears that axis have a significant disadvantage in the field of arty firepower. How would you reckon to solve that problem?

publius scipio the halftrack helps the Tigers low spotting range. Position it close behind the front line and your ATGs will give the Tiger support against Allied Tank Destroyers

I like the changes, but I'm not too keen on everything being stuffed into one commander. However the commander is suited for close combat like cities and forests. I've always been a fan of the Elite troops doctrine and I tried that instead of the new commander, but you lack the pioneer repair speed then and the stun grenade is something to temporarily halt a rushing shock or ranger squad but not nearly as good as one assgren in the build. I'm not sure if the elite troops ace has spearhead and self repair on it either. Don't forget the elite troops doctrine has the stormtroopers, almost forgotten they exist but they're a more specialist type of assgren behind the enemy lines. I think I had rather seen a change to the stug e assgren commander and the elite troops commander both to take parts of this new commander and make them more relevant again. I always wanted to use the ostwind stug combination, but the ostwind lacking the anti infantry just didn't cut it. Great change opening up many different strategies. All in all its great being able to pick more specific builds to counter a specific enemy in specific scenarios. Other factions have other options too to so it remains balanced, just being able to use units as they were intended is nice.

Aleksi134 I saw another vid demonstrating that the command Tiger ability did reduce performance “somewhat” but it was not noticeable in shots-to-kill and the perks to surrounding units compensated. I’ve been trying the command Panther and the perks is worth experimenting with.

I play OST and USF mostly. Does anyone know the fastest build order to Major with reasonable fuel point control? I’ve tried RE- RI-RI to Capt -tech up - Maj but in real game conditions I often need the ambulance and a heal or the aa halftrack and my first Medium takes nearly 20 minutes. If I unlock zooks or an atg (for light vehicle counter) it may be 25 minutes and meanwhile I’ve got a Pz4 in my face. Thoughts?

@goy0551 5 жыл бұрын

fmerritt2001 for me my standards is 3 riflemen then ambulance then lieutenant then cap , from there its just depend for i build atleast a 50 cal armored car or stuart , not both of them just either of them then go to major and get sherman or jackson, although i dont rush tanks for me, i always get AT guns then lieutenant with 2 zooks and RE with 2 zooks, all in all just depend on your fuel control , dont let the enemy double fuel cap you , or u really gonna see p4’s and panthers, atleast u try to get double fuel cap if cant just hold your fuel cap side with MGs , try to win every unit engagement and atleast a squad wipe so u can delay there tanks cuz its either the enemy gonna replace it with a new unit u wiped or not cuz mid game its gonna cost lot of MPs, well if your tanks are late try to snipe the tanks with zooks or AT guns or a snare , really hard for the enemy to replace tanks, also if u cant cap fuel point dont be afraid to get a mortar for indirect fire , dont let the enemy deny u fuel
