Title: [1.4]2v2 Grodno - Propaganda+Breakthrough vs Luftwaffe+Defensive

A match with some interesting tank battles later on. I didn't play very well, but found it quite a fun game anyway.

With the move of tannenburg to regular CoH, Grodno has become my new favourite EF map. I'll check this out.

Yeah, this was the first time I played on Grodno and I liked it. The map felt good.

Hopefully the game is kind of interesting, but I haven't watched it back myself yet. Maybe it'll be one of those games that feels exciting when you're playing and looks like a series of idiotic decisions by everyone involved when you watch it back again.

You went a very light T1 for someone rushing T3. Only 3 1/2 units when people usually go for 5. Had you gone for the extra units you could've contended the RHS fuel point. You realised this a bit later and produced an extra bike and volks but it was too late by then.

That's a sound analysis. I'm bad for floating MPP, it's something I really need to work on. Also, I think my total lack of AT capability was a serious problem, and my doctrine choice was poor. Blitzkrieg for the stormtroopers (would have been good against snipers, sneaking up with MP44s, and providing AT firepower) would have been a far better choice I think.

Blitz is usually the better choice when you go T3, unless you backtech after the shock factor of pumas has gone.
