Company of Heroes

I i'm new to this awesome replay forum and a newbie to CoH and would like some tips if possible.
I was pushed pretty hard in the beginning and wasn't able to push back, till i got my first stug.
Awesome stug action here, but i jumped the gun and lostem and tigers weren't any help at the end then anymore >.<




Would be awesome if you guys could give me some tipps, besides being calm while playing

K20R(Allies) vs. MajorSturm(Axis)

Map: Semois

K20R
Build order: Barracks, Engineer, Riflemen, Jeep.
Doctrine: Armor

Pros:
Good flanking maneuvers.

Cons:
You lost your armor quite stupidly. When running low on health, retreat it, be it a simple armored car or a calliope.
I didn't really see the use of your motor pool. 1 halftrack and 1 armored car was definitely not worth the fuel. Try to use it more, or skip it in favor of the tank depot.
Your early game was really focused on +5 ammunition points. Even though they're really cute, they're not worth looking at until there's nothing else for your units to do, or to connect territory.

Micro: 4
Skill: 5


MajorSturm
Build order: 2 Pioneers, Wehrmacht Quarters, Machine Gun, Motorcycle.
Doctrine: Blitzkrieg

Pros:
You withstanded a lot of his attacks before finally going down.

Cons:
Don't capture a point while fighting, you'll lose the fight because less of your soldiers fire.
Try to support your machine guns more with volksgrenadiers, in a 1:1 ratio. This will make any flanking maneuvers have a very high price for the enemy. Don't garrison the volksgrenadiers though, just stay close to the machine gun.
You didn't support your StuG with your stormtroopers after the first encounter. This allowed his faster tanks to close in and take it out. Either retreat it somewhere safe and repair it, or make him pay for trying to kill it while you repair.
Try to put machine guns in important places, like at the high munition points. Especially the top high ammo point is a good spot, because it's hard to flank and neutralizes most attacks on your fuel as well as your ammunition.
While a pershing and 2 tank destroyers are molesting your base, you choose to try and kill a calliope. The pathfinding isn't at it's best there, but use shift+click to set waypoints and avoid hard(stupid) terrain.


Micro: 5
Skill: 4

Summary: Both players were evenly matched and the game played out that way. Back and forth it went and stormtroopers, volksgrenadiers and machine guns teamed up against riflemen. Then came the allied armor though and the calliope clearly showed it's power, but also the tank destroyers did a fine job of killing StuG after StuG.
Eventually the StuGs were no more and even 2 tigers couldn't do anything against 2 crack pershings and it was game.

Entertainment: 4
End result: 4
