This is probably brought up before but okw has no anti building whatsoever before they get stuka zu fuss or 2 leig's. Even with 2 leigs shooting at them, those freaking maxims in buildings survive for at least 15 minutes in a building. This is extremely annoying in maps like ettelbrück station or the new western front snow map that has ton of buildings in the middle. I want a flamethrower upgrade for kubel. That would be awesome dont you guys think?

Joke aside what do you guys think? Maybe a flamer upgrade for sturmpios? No? It would probably be op. Well given the fact okw has to get shreks and decreased muni income in 3v3/4v4's maybe that wouldnt be a big problem. Just make it like 90 muni's(that's a lot for okw) and it may be okay. I saw this on trello btw just bringing here to discuss.

aggressive forward HQ spam is really hard to counter in team games as OKW, in fact kind of broken, short of rushing troops into every building before they can.

buildings are very vulnerable to nades this patch spam nades on the building or use infil nades and that building will be gone in one nade volley.

Flamethrowers don't fit the OKW fuel starved theme.

So you mean I have to select a doctrine to counter one of the most basic features of the game?

That seems to be Allied Player logic behind most things.

It is not only the OKW problem. Both Western front Armies need to pick a doctrine to fully counter MGs in buildings for example Armor Company for Assault Engieners.

FHQ which seems to be point of the thread isn't one of the most basic features.

And yea, nades, infiltration nades, AA HT, all of them handle buildings quickly.

In 1v1, just shoot the wall with a single window with sturms and volks - that's the only realistic option without wasting manpower/resorting to doctrines.

In team games have the OST get mortars and pio flamers.

Also don't try too hard to break the mg nests in ettelbruck before stuka. Just wire up northern area and force the fights out of mg range. Once stukas are out, all buildings will collapse in a single volley.

If its something like 4 OKW...good luck, because both WFA factions are limited in indirect fire.

And contrary to what some people claim, don't get AA halftrack for anti-garrison purposes...

Well I thought the main post was about buildings in general, but decent players dodge nades easily and Flak HT is not that good against garrisoned units.

That's practical, but broken as garden. Poor game mechanics are not tactics.

Flaktrack does anti building duties suprisingly well, infiltration grenades, luchs, rush sturms next to the building, sws crush

So you mean I have to select a doctrine to counter heavy vehicles as Soviet, one of the most basic features of the game?
