Not that I'm a newb. But it just got me curious. How exactly does the Ostheer counter the Soviets? I mean with the countering is clear with other factions. (expendability and jack of all trades US vs specialized yet expensive Wehr) How does the Ostheer counter the Soviet strength in numbers and armored warfare?

This is what I do:
1. 2 engi start (u already have them so don't build more)
2. Build infantry barracks and get 3-4 Landsers + sniper (use the sniper on command squad mostly)
3. Upgrade your sturmpios with flamer and don't lose them
4. Amass 60 fuel then build the 3rd building and make a halftrack
5. Put flamerpios in a halftrack and use that to wrek shit
6. Get support unit upgrade + assault pool and build a 1-2 Marders depending if he has tanks or not
7. Go the doctrine in the middle and go the route on the left and make Jagers with mp44 upgrade, they are great
8. Depending if your enemy makes more infantry or armor go for a tiger or the flak cannon

Thanks, but I'm not asking for a tutorial. I'm curious as to what is the Unique Characteristic of the Ostheer. Like what is their specialization.
Brits are great on defenses, PE focuses on rapid attacks, US focuses on expendability and multiple roles. The Wehr have their hard-counters and specialized units, The Soviets have strength in numbers. So I'm asking, what's the Ostheer's characteristic?
Hope this sheds light on my query :) OH is fun :3 and Jagers with the MKB is pure ownage.

t1 t3 is what you want to go for tech.

This is closer a bit to what I'm looking for. Not walkthroughs for OH. I'm asking for their definition as a faction. Like what sets them apart (other than the fuel heavy teching T_T)

Ostheer characteristic is flexibility. You can choose a variety of weapons suiting a certain playstyle, more aggressive or more suited for a defensive playstyle.

They got every unit the other Axis factions didn't?

Except for the Kugelblitz they got the most iconic units that were used by Axis in the east. Ofc there are some units in there for variation, but overall they still serve the purpose.
