A very nice game on La Gleize... I lost, unfortunately. Getting the mortar HT was a bad decision (I forgot I already had a major... could've waited for some medium armor). The deciding factor was tanks, because the Obersoldaten turn my "soldaten to meat". Perhaps getting two Jacksons instead of a Sherman and a Jackson would've been a better choice, but the Obersoldaten only die to vehicles. I had great map control in the early game, but couldn't pressure the enemies base when the flak truck came out.

Okay... this is kind of a ridiculous opening and my first encounter with it in my 27 games as USA. A double Kubelwagen +sturm pio opening... There are no easy counters to this, other than micro and banking on my enemy making a mistake. I managed to scavenge enough munitions to pressure him off with bazookas early game, but he used that to his advantage and went Luftwaffe with Fallschirmjagers. Maybe getting a lieutenant and T2 instead of T3 would've been better, but i was expecting more vehicles. I used the .50 cal paradrop which helped, but has its own drawbacks in the extra MP cost.

Anyway, this opening essentially forces the U.S. into surrendering or getting the bazooka tech, while limiting resource income as the kubelwagens contain the riflemen.
I think kubels should change; perhaps getting the ability to suppress at Vet 1, or making it a toggle-able ability at Vet 1 or initially, locking down the vehicle similar to the Marder III in PE and having a short cool down, adding to the risk of being flanked.
Idk, something... it's just honestly ridiculous right now.

1v1 on Kholodny Ferma... VPs 85-0 for Ostheer.
Brutal match... but hey, victory is what I get when my opponent relies on M4C Sherman spam. At one point I had four MGs... I think that was on accident. The combined arms style of both armies contributed to the gore and the mayhem around the center VP.

I bought RUSE for PS3... it was fun, but I feel the reason it never became super popular was just the style of game play. It's boring compared to CoH. I remember thinking RUSE's standard (strategy standard) AI was bad (they just spammed planes right away). I kinda liked it, it was an interesting concept.
But with the visuals with CoH 2 - or even better ones on a next gen console... on a 50" tv... my God.
It'd be amazing. Having a mouse and keyboard requirement may restrict sales slightly...but it would be the best way to go without changing much. It would make veteran CoH 2 players that also own consoles kick ass.
The best part about it being on next gen would be cross-play... War Thunder already has that

Sarantini... Thank you.
I copied your response into wordpad and printed it out. haha. It worked great! Here's the first game I played with your advice
