I started doing this build order for multiple reasons. First, I was tired of getting pwned by brit mortars. Second, I was tired of getting pwned by brit commandos and fireflys.
So this strat is designed to deny them of XP and CPs, deny them of resources, deny them of late game units and take out those pesky mortars before they are even up.
Basic BuildOrder: Pio, Pio, Pio, Bike, Bike, Bike, MG, Flamer, Volks, MG, Tech, Stormtrooper, Stormtrooper…
With your initial capping order, munitions should take high priority for flamers and panzerschrecks. Use bikes to harass capping tommies and chase off Lts. Retreat if necessary. Use pios to repair bikes and keep them alive at all costs! You will need to frequently repair bikes. Keep this up until your MG gets out.
Use the bikes LoS to scout for any treches/enplacements going up. As soon as you see one, target it with all of your bikes. Their damage vs building which are not completed is tremendous. When you see it early, you will take it out without many problems.
Your mission is to get your MG firing on their HQ truck and surrounding tommies, while your pios repair bikes, and flamers are firing on the HQ truck. Since he will be firing on your bikes, he will not get much XP so long as you don't let one die. While you are picking off tommies and Lts for XP. Soon you will have enough for stromtroopers (Be sure to be teched to t2 to get panzerschrecks) If you need XP to get storms, try buidling a KKC and getting lvl 1 vet on either inf/bikes/mgs. This should give you more than enough XP for storms.
Get stuh if necessary. At some point you will need a way to deal with blobbed, upgraded tommies. Either tech to t3 for bundled nades OR wait to get a stuh OR get the assault grenades ability on the RHS of blitz. I'm still figuring out which option is the best.
bren carriers can be tricky, but bikes do good damage vs them, and the brits have to PAY munitions to repair, whereas bikes get repaired for free by pios. Just focus fire everything on the bren, and panzerfaust if necessary.
All the games in this post are wins vs brits lvl10 and under (and smurfs with good win/loss ratios). The next post are losses vs N3m and Seph who played excellent vs this strat.
I DON'T think this strat is OP! It takes some practice and alot of micro to pull it off, but it is very satisfying to beat brits in tier1!
It works on maps which dont have many buildings. Langres and Ango are good maps to do it on. I have had some success on beaux and Wrecked train as well.
Also - I'm only a lvl10 1v1 player (I dont have enough time to commit to get better atm). So i'm sure in the hands of a higher level player, this strat could be competative vs high levels
The game vs Mexico was the first time i ever tried tihs strat, and I think was one of the first times he played brits in ranked. The other games have better cap orders/micro
Give me Feedback! And post your own replays!!
