Hans, might i suggest that using two Fireflies with tulips rocket shots followed by an Avre shot focalized unto one Panzer would stunt it for a long period of time making it a sitting duck and combined with a devastating amount of damage will result of its destruction in no time. (sometimes the heavier axis armor could escape this tactic being barely alive) I tested this AT tactic in 4v4 and it proved to be very effective against Axis armor as a Brit . So i want to share this tactic to you and if possible, to use it the next time you get the Avre in action, if that not too much to ask. And by the way, i love your videos about CoH, i follow you for a few years now. Keep making good content as always.
Bloody good game. Also good that you show it's not always sunshine, roses and clutch victories - sometimes you gotta take your lumps. Damn good hold on the VP, hats off to your early game especially. Still struggling to get the hang of the game, this is good edutainment.
I am not a great player but i feel instead of the two caches a second engineer with mine sweepers and piats would have been good for this match. They could have walked up and cleared mines also could have helped with keeping the assualt healthy as most tanks needed lots of repairs keeping them of the field abit.
Gammon Bombs (much better grenade) for all rifles and war speed for tanks. Also gains access to the comet which can run circles around axis armor with war speed. Hans tried to play it aggressively but his teammates were lagging behind so whatever progress he makes is quickly negated.
Could've made one of your tanks a Command vehicle, gives nice range with recon plane, especially on Firefly, can have max range all the time, wierd u never used it as you are the Hans! :)
command vehicle makes the tank 50% more inaccurate and takes twice as long to fire shots, so no, putting it on a firefly is not a good decision. The aec is the best option for that, since the ability is really there to make your infantry better.
Man that yellow player. He stopped pushing the other star. Guess what? they concentrated everything in mid and Germans got to the late game... great job abandoning the flank.
Hans, i have a question, when you play on Steppes 4v4, how do you go about it ? where does each player go ? ( i personally do each 2 players for a fuel)
With minimal map control early on you are pushed on the defense and thus can have more damage but the enemy will simply have more things to keep you from pushing up against them
Great game but why wouldn't you use your combat speed or scavenger engineers I feel like you could have done a lot better if you had. Also you can shoot smoke and move at the same time if I'm not mistaken which could have saved a few of your tanks in addition to the combat speed which is free whenever your engies repair your vehicles. Of course this is all hindsight but nevertheless good things to think about.
Green just not doing anything half of the game getting slaughtered by artillery and yellow mashing his head on left lane instead of flanking and killing the howitzers. I don't know why hans didn't just drive the avre and the comet to the left side of the map and flanked there.
at about 28:37 your reenforce tent was getting barraged, why not abandon it and set up a new one just far enough away that they wont accidentally hit it?
