Thank you ;-)

Oh well .. i knew it's not a new player .. and everything you said Obersoldat is truth and i know it. But for some reason i just can't implement it into the actual gameplay. Sometimes, when i'm watching my replay, i'm feeling like the game was played by a whole different person. It seems, that i am not able to manage more combat areas at once, while maintaining a good strategic overview of the battle (managing resources, teching up, upgrading and microing ...) .. simply put - i am being overwhelmed

Hector i really doubt it, that i will be in top 500 players after placement matches. Today i had a really though match with a guy ranked around 1900. So maybe i get into 2000

Lost the game at the start

Ok, thanks everyone for their opinion

Hello guys and thank you for this. I really appreciate it! First of all, i uploaded this replay, because i wanted to post in the replay review forums. But after i uploaded it i thought, it would be good first to take a look at it on my own. And after i watched it, i was like "wtf i was doing there?" All the things mentioned in your video are so obvious, that i didn`t post on the forums after watching the replay myself.

I thing the biggest mistake at the start was the "action" at enemy cutoff .. i leaved one squad pinned, so the MG was busy while i decap with another gren squad .. now i know, that maybe he lost some time without fuel, but i retreated very damaged squads with low health (which i did with pretty much every squad out there). And then i leaved them in base waiting for the healing bunker .. so in the end i took the cutoff, but lost too much time healing units.

Later in the game i managed to take one of his Vickers. He made two bofors around center VP (i was able to destroy one with mortar), but when he went Centaur II + 2x 6 pounder i panicked. I lost 2 or 3 Pumas (i was trying to learn the Mobile Defense commander .. which i don`t like very much now), one Command P4 and he also wiped out almost all my infantry. Later i lost 2 Panthers in a row (and what a stupid losses they were ...) and that was pretty much it.

But i am trying to learn from it. Next game .. again against Brits .. again Bofors (i think it`s called simcity?) .. this time i won in 16 minutes because of a quick mortar halftrack.

Last game i played yesterday was agains SU. He pushed me of the map because of Maxim spam early on. He even got T34 in my base almost destroying my T3 building i just build .. but i managed to came back with about 130 VPs left and he surrendered in the end.

One thing i really want to know - is Flame HT really a better choice against 2 or more vickers / Maxims? Because i think 222 has better armor and it`s very fragile against them. I know i have to flank and get out of their shooting radius, but still i feel like .. the HT would be dead sooner as it could flank the MGs.

Btw. Hector / hi buddy! Can i add you on Steam? (Don`t be afraid / i won`t spam the chat with questions ;-)
