Hey Ben, you’re very welcome, it’s been an honor creating content for the franchise. We’re off to a shaky start but I am really hopeful for the future of CoH3. Thank you for the kind words and supporting the channel! I will keep it up for sure.
Hey everyone! As indicated by Zarco in the comments - one thing I failed to do this game that is absolutely necessary, if you’re going to skip the healing tech at the HQ, is the Vet 1 healing ability of the Grenadier’s. This coincides perfectly with the officer quarters because you get the Vet 1 medical supply ability immediately and can maintain healing on the front line. This allows you to utilize munitions for healing rather than spending fuel for the healing upgrade back at base. However - It’s generally not wise to skip the healing upgrade at the headquarters, but I was trying to save fuel to fast tech to tier 4 in this specific instance.
@@jameswalker571 Yeah exactly, it’s very risky not to have your healing at the headquarters or at least in some passive form such as a medical truck. I think it’s generally more important to have healing compared to quicker tech, but this is a pretty cool build that allows you to tier 4 fast and also have the veterancy healing for the grens.
@@SargeGG yeah I do like the idea! Im going to have to try it now. I normally spam falsh pios as I feel like they are far better than normal early grens. Are gren blobs a good tactic you think? Especially with the mp40 package. Trying to figure out new strats
@@jameswalker571 Yeah, lufftwaffe battlegroup is really strong right now. There are a lot of ways to play the Wehrmacht, ranging from the Falshpios you described to quick tier 2 openings that focus on either Jaegers or Pgrens to fulfill the main line infantry role. However, I personally really enjoy the standard Grenadier’s especially with breakthrough because of the MP40’s, breakthrough and sprinting abilities, and the overall early game tempo that allows you to apply pressure. I like having a lot of manpower in the early game and given the officer headquarters upgrade, you can quickly leverage the veterancy so your unit scale better into the late game. I would recommend 3-4 squads of Grenadier’s in the early game and an MG. If I open with 4 Grenadier’s, I’m generally only building one support unit. However, if I open with 3 Grenadier’s I will generally follow up with two support unit such as 2x MGs or 1x MG and 1x mortar. Making up five units total from tier 1 + your starting Pioneer. With this kind of build, you have to be very careful of not getting caught off guard against the mid game vehicles from the allies such as a Humber, Stuart or Chaffee tank. Rely on your snares from your grenadiers and keep in mind that you can always tech to tier 2, if needed.
Hey JayB0ne, that’s awesome to hear. Thank you for the kind words and support. I hope you find the content both entertaining and constructive. 🫡 Welcome to the Sarge Squad!
No worries Sarge, 16 cousins sounds like a fun time lol. Also, you most likely didn't notice but you didn't use the Vet 1 healing ability for your Grens, it would've come in handy several times.
Oh Yes, the Vet 1 healing is exactly what you need when you are skipping medical upgrade at the HQ. It’s 100% necessary, if you’re going to cut that tech. It’s a really good observation, Zarco. I wish I caught that because it would be very helpful for new players. I will make note of that in the comments for new players. Thank you!
Thanks for the upload! Don't forget about mines in these situations where you have the enemy gimme VP. It's an easy way to really punish them for letting you have it for so long. GG regardless. Fun watch. Side note, a hotfix was released a day or two ago that mentioned team weapons getting stuck on retreat. So hopefully this is the last you'll see of that retreat bug.
Hey little Chatelain, that’s a really good point. That situation was a perfect example of why you should place mines all over the left hand side, allowing you to slow down their counterattacks (especially a double team) and more easily win engagements. Laying mines all over the left side in that scenario also allows you to allocate more troops on the right side as well. That would’ve been a really helpful tip for new players but I’ll get it next time. And thank you very much, glad you enjoyed the match! Oh yes, I did see the patch notes but this game was played yesterday morning after I updated the patch. But yes, hopefully it’s the last time. I haven’t seen it since so fingers crossed! Haha
Hey twin, that’s awesome to hear! A big goal of mine is to help new players gain entry into the franchise because I know how hard it is to learn this game. Keep up the practice and if you ever have any questions, please feel free to ask. 🫡 welcome to the Sarge squad!
Oh you’re very welcome, Jay! This is the first time I’ve personally seen this bug in the new patch, not sure if other players are encountering the same issue. But it’s definitely something I will reference for the developers. It’s good I got it on video.
Haha Hey James, yeah it was a pretty brutal match for the opposing team. They had some initial early game success with their double team push into the bottom right, But they should have quickly shifted to my side in order to capitalize on their momentum.
Purple was REALLY bad tbh... and even the game is trying to balance you by giving you bugs, glitches, and even the disconnect but you still won. Good min-maxing and micro overall despite the uncontrollable circumstances.
Lol that’s funny, the game probably was trying to balance it out. Haha But I agree with you, Xeno. Purple’s strategy didn’t make sense. I initially assumed that they were two friends playing together because of how paired up they were. I thought they would push the right and then quickly shift left to my side, but purple failed to capitalize on any momentum. The lack of map control really hindered their tech and armored capabilities as well. Not the most competitive match, but I hope it is insightful for new players getting into multiplayer on how to deal with the situations. And thank you for all the positive feedback!
Yeah, I was thinking about the same thing stoneyard. I would have liked to be more aggressive, pushing into the right hand side with my teammate. I think utilizing the mortar quicker to dislodge the Garrisoned MGs would have been ideal to allow my Grenadier’s to push.
when you lose more units to a disconnect in 30s than a full 15minutes match: *would have been better of if i lost FULL connection...* but seriusly, its realy painfull, once i lost 1 pioner, 2 Fallspioner and a MG42 in the first 60s of a game becose of a 15s disconnect. basicaly that game was from that point on rigged from the start... worst is those that "tease" you that you gona lose all connection to the game, but instead lasts for 30-40s and you lose everything. which is what happens the most to me...
Oh yeah, that’s a brutal loss of manpower. It’s so hard to come back from situations like that against decent players, let alone good opponents. This has been happening to me more lately in the past few weeks. I’m not sure if it’s my connection or some kind of bug in the game. Sort of like a bug splat disconnect from CoH2.
@@SargeGG i think its a bug in the game, you can actualy still talk with people while it is happening, + if both you and me are seeing frequently lately, what are the chances that other are also having the same issues?
Hey Aleks, yeah, that was very weird. Not quite sure what prompted that specific bug, seems very random but it’s the first time I’ve encountered it. The game is really fun but definitely needs continued updates and polish before it’s in an ideal state, so I think waiting for a sale is a good idea. It would be great if they put the game on sale along side a large update in the summer but only time will tell.
Thanks for your videos Sarge! You're a positive voice in a community that really needs it. Keep it up!

Was wondering that myself! Makes sense now. I feel like I need healing stations asap with every team. So difficult keeping squads Alive without it

Thanks for the great gameplay., Sarge! Does the bug come up often? Do the developers know about it?

Haha Hey James, yeah it was a pretty brutal match for the opposing team. They had some initial early game success with their double team push into the bottom right, But they should have quickly shifted to my side in order to capitalize on their momentum.
No need to appologies for anything. Family comes first. Its also been a while since you released axis content if i remember correctly.
Thanks Tabs, appreciate that a lot. Yeah, I was thinking the same thing this week and have been wanting to play the Axis more.
Brilliant win even with the lag and bugs. I don’t know how you don’t lose your head when that happens 😂 nothing angers me more
Haha 😂 thanks James, appreciate it. I try to stay positive but I might have raged if I fully disconnected lol. That would’ve been so brutal!
Purple was REALLY bad tbh... and even the game is trying to balance you by giving you bugs, glitches, and even the disconnect but you still won.

The graphic looks like Coh 2??!!!
Hey Oktay, there are quite a few differences in the graphical style but they are similar overall.
Cant be to passive.... continues to be passive
Yeah, I was thinking about the same thing stoneyard. I would have liked to be more aggressive, pushing into the right hand side with my teammate. I think utilizing the mortar quicker to dislodge the Garrisoned MGs would have been ideal to allow my Grenadier’s to push.
@SargeGG not really your fault, you reminded yourself to be aggressive, but right at that moment, the connection went tits.
@@stoneyard100 Yeah, that’s true too, the mortar bug and the connection kind of threw a wrench in the game plan haha.

No it was present before the patch
