Hey guys, here an interesting match against me and Koda...He played like everytime, with a strong strategy based on grenadiers VET 3 with schreks, MGs and Mortars...I tried an interesting strategy using an Howitzer and some sappers squads to lock his attacks using extra repairs and other things...at the end he won using the powerful KT helped by grenadiers but I used leutenant's arty ability to make them run away...
I think he should destroy my mortar emplacement before he started to bomb my MG emplacement...but he used them very well always moving them to don't let them shoot from me...
Well on first viewing it seems you managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory but I suppose Koda kept you on the hop so well you simply never had a chance to reach Fireflys, build a Bofors or go for commandos to reach the far VPs.
Interesting watch all the same mate. gg

I should use better my infantry but i think i didn't play a bad match mate...I was waiting for his KT and I wanted to kill it before trying to move and take more territory....but he destroied my 17 pounder and my howitzer didn't shoot correctly to his infantry when i used the overwatch ability (it shot like there was an obstacle in front of it and the bombs went near my howitzer and not on the objective)... This is the problem in another post of TheSn1p3r:
"well, since I haven't seen posted on here. Overwatch bug with buildings is stupid. absolutely cannot be used in any sort of urban environment. It'll just "collide" with a neutral/your buildings if it obstructs its path."
Marcus, I think your mistake here was that you never went for any offensive pushes, nor did you really have any spearhead units to do so. In my estimation, not making an Armored Command Truck was a mistake that cost you the game. You needed Fireflies to counter and KILL, not just chase away as the 17 pounder will do, the King Tiger.
Good usage of the 25 pounder and vickers nests.
Had to scratch my head at Koda using the KT to fire on Piat Sappers in a trench...
