*) American rifles then rangers work well. Sappers with PIATs are terrible light armor counters compared to something like shreked gren/storm squads or airdropped US AT guns. I find them almost unbeatable on Angoville, but easily smashed on Semois or Beux Lowlands because of the way that their fixed emplacements just chow down your popcap, and you simply cannot hold territory as the British without them. *) British really suffer in 1v1 on maps that aren't small and are a beast on 1v1 maps that are small.
I really like some of the bigger team play maps, but a few of the new 1v1 maps are really wack (Best/Verriers Ridge especially) and some really chokepointy. The missions were a lot of fun and if OF is half as good the campaign will definitely be worth the time invested (the return on money spent is given, thanks to th game's godly multiplayer).Ī few thoughts after a couple of days of playing skirmish/mp: I really enjoyed playing through the COH campaign on hard and getting all the medals (yes, even the stupid 40 minutes up Hill 192, which took me like ten tries). It sort of highlights how fantastic the Relic expansion strategy is. I really dig that even if you are playing US/Wehrmacht, you still get "new" content in a way with the expansion since new sides to play against means new tactics to employ.
An early jeep, something you'd not see much in a 1v1, is a huge help against the strong early PE capping power. You sort of have to go early WSC-you need the snipers to counter the infantry, and the AP round-capable MG squads to take down early PE vehicles (which get owned by it). They can be extraordinarly frustrating to play against if you are playing Wehrmacht or American and don't change your playstyle.įor exampe, traditional American riflespam fails badly against the Panzer Elite. What they are saying about the two new factions is true-they are more complex to play and they do offer the advanced player a host of options to perform some very wild and ingenious tactics. I finally got a chance to put some quality time into this last night.
