COH2 FPV Assault Support is my new favourite Ostheer commander 

I love his thumbnails

I liked to imagine he poses for hours to get just the right expression

Ahh Gonk. Yeah I agree! A collaboration between these two would be superb!

Tightrope has already done much better videos years ago in his "micro tips and tricks series"

Half track plays are very difficult to get working in 1v1, I have tried many times.

Those are different officers I think. Basically, the Luftwaffe one has worse abilities for a higher cost.

I feel the smoke on the artillery officer is more useful, the vet 1 mortar strike is better than the anti infantry strafe and the coordinated strike can be very handy to milk more value from a werfer late game especially vs team weapon heavy soviet builds. Basically every ability is the same or better on it IMO

Yes when a commander has 3 late game options, sometimes you don't get a chance to use all of them.

He uses the programm "Autohotkey". It´s quite good

Yeah the tiger would have been about 30 seconds later, I was focusing on other things though.

@@tightropegaming yeah, no shame on that, it's easy to say afterwards as viewer when you don't have the pressure of playing the game itself haha.

Osteer games are a rough watch

It's neigh impossible to win against a good OST player with double double as USF without calliope. Especially not with the E8 commander that has one useful ability (sandbags) Not to mention uselesness of E8. He went for the E8 with the focused gunnery instead of just getting two jacksons and an MG

@@dominikcar5570 E8 on 1v1 is a pretty versatile tank and with comander you can see that overmatches p4 and has chances to pen panther frontally. I think that in the midgame instead of going for a lieutenant he could have brought double scot and used smoke barrages more often to support weapons or even a mortar could have been a good idea and use much more smoke. He did a great job flanking but needed more smoking screens.

@@tracknes Those pens were on Gunnery I believe, and even then, hitting and penning a Panther frontally is not really reliable. He has a game where the E8 bounced point blank 4 times in a row, without gunnery. E8 is a 1v1 niche. In 2v2+ it's downright useless, unless you can get a big mass of them. In 1v1 it can be somewhat decent, but if there are double pak40s on the field. Good luck. Even with smoke, decent ground attacks are possible. It's not like smoke is a one-way street. E8 is just not worth it unless it's en-masse. And to get it en-masse you first need double AT guns of your own. Also, Scott without path vision is useless. 50 autofire range is easy pickings for a Panther/pak40, and barrage can be easily dodged in 1v1s. In 3v3s+ it's a different story. Many more units, much more things to keep track of, much more difficult to keep an eye out for everything. As such, barrages can work

@@tracknes I have tried to use the E8 and it just ends up being underwhelming most of the time. While the penetration is good enough against a Panzer IV, against a Panther, it is just not reliable enough to make up for it´s non-existent damage against infantry. If you go for the Commander upgrade, it basically turns into a worse Panther that is forced to face actual heavy tanks (unlike the real Panther, which mostly faces mediums with paper armor).

It's a David Carradine reference.

@@StarMarshal I do not understand

@@southsidepilgrim4810 look up his cause of death.

What did any of that have to do with a tightrope. I thought maybe he just like acrobatics and named himself tightrope

@@southsidepilgrim4810 it's just a joke, don't think too hard about it.
