Sappers, Sappers and Sappers , did i forgot to mention Sappers? Anvil tactics improve thier firepower,repair speed and if they have PIAT is even better, also Destroy Cover is so usefullllll. The AT gun is good but costs a lot so i rather just rush a Cromwell, however its good to have one out there. The Sniper costs too much and the Axis are just going to rush him cause close range. The Officer is ok but i rather use the Assault Infantry Sections. And the Bofos and Mortars if they count as units are just so good if you know to place and defend them. Also i never use the AEC so got no clue if is good or not.
I have a question, if you, or anyone who streams I suppose, sees this... what camera and program do you use to video you while you play games? My little boy wants to do these kind of videos for other kids to watch but I have no idea how you do it or what kind of camera people are using to do it
Something to keep in mind 1.Unit garrison in structure like Mortar pit or Bofor will not turn around to shoot enemy behind them,so they may end up using only 1 or 2 models to shoot enemy 2.If you remove defensive structure using royal engineer it will refund half of the manpower you use to build it (in patch note it say it won't refund for some reason) 3.Vet 3 6-Pounder AT gun have increase penetration and it change AP round effect.
Clarification. The Sniper shot ability stun happens on casemates not super heavies. Things with turrets all get turret jam, and the light vehicles is correct all light vehicles get engine damage
Edit: Don't know when but now you can't build forward assembly to gain garrison bonuses. BUT If you toggled retreat points at forward assembly a GLOBAL reinforce reduct is applied. e,g: it takes 8.15 base seconds to reinforce a single commando,but after toggled on retreat point it takes 12.5 seconds even at your base this also applys to HQ gliders.
One thing you got a little wrong in this video, is the sniper and his critical shot ability. All light vehicles get motor damage which is correct in the video. But all other vehicles (medium and heavy) dont depent on the weight class in terms of what critical appears. ALL medium and heavy vehicles with a turreted main gun get the turret jam critical. ALL other medium and heavy vehicles (su-85, stug etc) which dont have a turret main gun, get the crew stunned critical instead. The only exception for this is the OKW flamethrower tank hetzer (gets turret jam) , the katyusha (which doesnt get any crit), T70 (gets turret jam)
JadgTiger and SturmTiger have no turret. So is it turret jam for turreted medium/heavies and stun for turretless medium/heavies, not turret jam for mediums and stuns for heavies?
AEC would be so much better if they didn't make it cost so much fuel. it just delays when you can get out the other armor, which is already really expensive.

@@mr.pilchard4548 I wouldn't be asking if it were that easy dude. To get to T3, you'd need T2. To get both, it would cost 145 fuel. Then you'd need more fuel for the tank itself.

Can you use the Remove obstacle ability to destroy abandoned team weapons? What are the two range indicators for Mortar pit? The closest is for auto-fire, and the farthest is only for manual fire?
First one is doubtful, but possible, you might have to check it yourself. As for mortar ranges, exactly, closer range is passive fire support range, and further one is for salvo ability
Go into the in game modding hub and look there I believe it is called cheat mod or something you should be able to find it ( hopefully ) and once you do click on play and you will be able to start a custom game with this mod ( I hope that this was at least slightly helpful )
I dont know how these fixed emplacement can be competitive at all, even in 4 v 4 against hard and expert AI s, the moment I build any emplacement they start calling in arty or rocket strikes on me and I cant even get engineers in to repair it.
The brits faction is so shit in CoH 2. You have no way to smoke reliably. You have to use a very expensive smoke, while they cheaply spam mgs. You need a commander with the mortar teams, and even then, the infantry on the brits are so outclassed.
they nerfed the oster so it can't go straigt to tech 3, and can't have more than one heavy tank, but the guys with the cancer town and broken infantry can nah the "balance" in this game is bulsh*t
Well, no other faction can have more than 1 heavy tank at the time, no other faction can skip tier 2 to tech tier 3, technically OKW can skip tier 2 to get to Schwerer but still needs to be teched if you want Konigstiger, and well if you mean cancer town as sim city it really is annoying and hard to counter when they play it well, but so is Osteer with defensive doctrine and OKW Fortifications, so I guess these tactics are equally as annoying.
UKF can get one special Churchill only and while you can build a few regular Churchills (though their pop cap is pretty prohibitive), their gun is certainly not a heavy tank gun. A Churchill is a damage sponge that can be good vs infantry, just like the Panther is a heavily armoured medium that can take on pretty much any allied armour and also isn't limited. Cancer town meanwhile is mostly ok for team games if executed in coodination with allies and even then, it's not worse than the BS Fortifications OKW can do (0 popcap bunkers, tank traps and barbed wire that can't be run over by light vehicles, specialised S-mine fields, Teller mines and general purpose Schu-mines, Pak 43 that ignores shotblockers and is cheaper than 17 pdr, leFH for counter-battery, Schwerer Panzer HQ for free AA and heavy defense, mix in a Uhu for 80 LoS spotting so your Pak and bunkers aren't blind and you are basically set and can take your remainding popcap to spawn in a KT and help allies run over the other flank). It's annoying as hell when it happens, but the main things to counter it are, to not let it set up or to have a coordinated response, as this strategy basically relies on some team coordination that one person needs to gain the early hold, digs in and then the other flank becomes the main fighting point, because if everyone just digs in, you just overrun one of them, as mortar pits and MG bunkers cannot move to reinforce a different flank. Also why in 1v1, this approach can be countered quite well, as it has shit map presence.
@@GuuMonster you are right, but the thin is, you can totally destroy most okw and oster fortifications whit any light tank or even light vehicle, meanwhile the bofors is not onley anti air, but anti infantry and anti light tanks, not to mention, as you say it, the axis defenses are aviable onley via doctrine, while united karen have them for free, and not onley that, they do not need any doctrine to call bombardments from 0 tier, even the americans need to tier up before doing that. not to mention that most united karen players think that and i quote "the owl is broken and unfair" when they can iluminate the whole front for miserable 60 munitions, whitout the population, man power, gas, need of poitioning nor risk to loose it to any infatry.
@@mr.pilchard4548 Well yeah but you make UKF sound very broken, they're not, they can be powerful yeah but that depends on the skill of the player, yes UKF has access to flares to bombard from base but is most effective when Company Command Post is built, also if you loose that section you have to spend munitions on it again to gain the ability, it's not available right away with every IS, also, good luck trying to take down a PAK43 with a light tank, it might get decrewed for sure but destroyed? nah, you need multiple shots from a medium more likely, that or maybe arty to destroy it, in which 17-Pounder cannot get decrewed and cannot shoot through walls but is non-doctrinal so there is balance. Flares also come with a doctrine, probably the most popular and used doctrine but again, it's a matter of skill from the player of how much they can take advantage of said doctrine, I just think too heavy fortifications from both sides are just too cheap and annoying to deal with.
@@Evangeline.F yeah, you got some good poins, but you forgot about someting: the churchil AVRE, while is a doctrine exclusive, it is an anti infantry unit, and also impervius to AT guns due to it's shot, which for whatever reazone it's 169 mm cannon does equal or even more damage than the 380mm Strumtiger, not to mention that it has the advantage of the rotating turret, it has better movement. OKW, and oster can have onley 1 heavy tank, and it still bullshit due to the fact that, not onley okw can't do nothing to get extra fuel and can't build caches, (the onley way to have a "cache" as okw is with the skdf 223, a shitty vehicle which onley give you a +3 resources and cripples population; nor any kind of bunkers whitout the doctrine wich kinda cripple your attack options), it is bullshit due to the fact that you can have 3 or more churchills at the time. A regular panther has a hard time dealing against one churchill due to theyr ridiculous armour and the fact that a churchill HEAVY tank can deal against everything exept for pak 43 due to that same armor and costs 40 less fuel than the panther (which in its actuall state is onley descent vs tanks and nothing else), 3 panthers will loose to 3 or 4 churchills every time; the "free AA and heavy defense", is usless against ANY TANK, not to mention the "free" wich IT COST 135 FUEL (you actually need: 100 man power + 15 fuel to summon the halftrack, 200 + 60 to place the thing, and + 60 fuel to activate the "FREE AA AND HEAVY DEFENSE" which still needs to be activated manually to do it's AA roll) not to mention that, not onley you are risking your most valuable building ast the okw by puting it out fo your base to "defend a choke point", but when it gets destroyed, you need to waste all that resources again and it cannot be emplaced on a victory point like cancer town, nor can be build at minute 5 like, again, cancer town. Pak 43 Oster cost 500 MP. OKW cost 350 Mp, 45 fuel 10 pop and onley aviable at 8 comand points, it can blow itself and use stunt ammo, while the 17lb cost 400 mp, 75 gas and 20 pop, BUT (and here comes the big but), OKW can't do nothing to get more fuel (yes, same point again) you can get it whenever you hit it's tech level. it can shoot flares, it can LOCK itself to recibe less damage when attacked, it has 320 damage (40 more than the pak), if has units garrisoned in it IT HAS -30% RELOAD TIME AND DOUBLE ROTATION RATE AND IT IS NOT DOCTRIN EXCLUSIVE. IefH 105 mm artillery, is not onley weak, but no viable due to it's high cost, low damage and low, very, very low chance to hit something and the fact that, once again ARE DOCTRINE EXCLUSIVE. you know what is not doctrine exclusive for the United Karen Forces? the most buffed and probably best base infantry in the game, pretty much invencible in a building. ammo and fuel cache build BY infantry Bofors/AEC Mortair Pit 17lb emplacement Artillery support from lv 1 Forward Assembly (which can be upgraded as a healing station or retreat point AND can call artillery support if in danger) Tulip AT Rockets Advance warning + Airburst Shells + Churchill/Gammon bomb + vehicle track + commet + emergency speed .-.
What is your favourite unit in Tier 2?
Sappers, Sappers and Sappers , did i forgot to mention Sappers? Anvil tactics improve thier firepower,repair speed and if they have PIAT is even better, also Destroy Cover is so usefullllll.
The AT gun is good but costs a lot so i rather just rush a Cromwell, however its good to have one out there.
The Sniper costs too much and the Axis are just going to rush him cause close range.
The Officer is ok but i rather use the Assault Infantry Sections.
And the Bofos and Mortars if they count as units are just so good if you know to place and defend them.
Also i never use the AEC so got no clue if is good or not.

Why they kill the mortar crew? They could them them to run away. That's just sad.
21:50
The M crews do fire faster, but you have to use engineers.
JadgTiger and SturmTiger have no turret.
So is it turret jam for turreted medium/heavies and stun for turretless medium/heavies, not turret jam for mediums and stuns for heavies?
Fortunately for everyone, AEC and Bofors are no longer mutually exclusive
Royal engineers are just so scary on close range.
Would be nice to make a OKW boot camp
