It´s the damage done relatively to the units cost. That´s also why you often see AT-guns with 1000+% performance stats. Lots of damage for low cost.

Thanks, this is gold.

Tiger ace crippling your economy, no Elite troops training. Way to fuck up a doctrine.

Can´t we wait until the patch arrives? Every faction has a unit that´s quite good for cost, better than the other factions respective counterpart at times. Yet it evens out when another unit of the other faction is performing better. In that case I would say it´s the Panzerschreck and StuG that are evening it out a bit.

Seems like Brits are going to be hit quite hard by the patch. Let´s wait and see how it´s going to work out in the big picture.

Not my favorite but since I´m forced to go for him in almost any 2v2 games: Jäger armor.

- Elefant is self explanatory
- Scopes help your StuGs or create the 222 map hack
- Stuka + Recon does the rest

I don´t like how the factions get more and more similar. It´s starting to become mirrored. This eventually makes it more balanced, yet also more boring. The factions lose their character.

OKW was designed about fewer yet better vetted vehicles. The resource penalty balanced it (the units and bad vet5 made them weak last patch). Now OKW is going to pump vehicles out like the other factions. Vet5 is offering some pseudo bonuses. Why make it 5 stars at all if they don´t offer you that much more? The strange thing is that people complained about how weak vet5 is on some units and the (imo lazy) solution is to get almost rid of it and make OKW get resources like the other factions?

Fuel and ammo conversion is gone. That also means less unique strategic decisions for OKW.

Moving vehicles into later tech buildings makes it too similar to other factions too. The tech system is still different but too similar for my taste. A Jagdpanzer IV early didn´t break the game.

Also unique abilities like the Wehr Elite troops disappear. This was also a unique strategic decision. You could make a vet3 infantry start. Now that tactic is also gone.

Kind of disappointed by all this. I´m not complaining that OKW is going to be weak. I´m complaining that OKW is going to be strong but boring.

Last but not least OKW with the resource penalty and vet5 units gave the cool authentic late war flavor to the German faction. You are short on supply, have Volksgrenadiers that are rather weak bolstering your troops, yet you also have experienced veterans. Now you have just another faction.
