Either way, as always excited to see new commanders, hope Wher gets a few more too

If they go for garrisons, rush a 7.5cm, if they are out in the open, try to flank with 2-3 squads. One comes in from the side, one from the front and one at another odd angle. At least one should make it, or send a kubel around the side if it's the first maxim.

Opening something like: Starting Sturm.

Sturm

Kubel.

Every time I've been against maxims with this strat I've done well, except on maps like Ettelbruck where its hard to flank due to the very narrow chokes that maxims do great in, if its 3v3 it's fine, 4v4 on maps like that are just cluster fucks and you can't flank reliably.

Rushing Obers are good too, Obers with good RNG will kill the gunner of the maxim with the first burst of their MG. so if you have 2 or a flank squad, you should be fine.

I generally go Mechanised truck, convert to fuel, get Flak truck next in a decent position and either go Luchs if its heavy infantry, or straight for a Panther while getting 1-2 ober squads to support my Sturm/volks. - Don't forget Rocket43's for some early-mid Anti Tank while waiting for Panther

Also do not close in with the Sturmpios and do not let them close with you, or if they try, make sure you are in cover and they are moving out of cover/through red cover. It's still pretty RNG if they drop a few models before getting to close range but they should drop at least 1 and have a 2nd injured and close to dropping.

But as stated, if you go M3 and keep at range or Maxim or two you should be fine.

Try to keep the Maxim back behind some infantry, even if its a combat engie to spot for it, otherwise you could get it flanked easily by another Sturmpio squad and it will drop fast.

Can't believe this is still a thing. It's bad enough they trucks mess with unit AI let alone crushing.

Personally I don't abuse it because it just isn't in the spirit of the game and just is not fun to play against, the only "counter" is M3 car which ofc US do not have.

Yeah 24th for the UK at about 6 or 7PM.

Altho the individual army pages say 23rd the actual Western Fronts store page says 24th, wat.
