General Discussion / Interesting thoughts

Well I finally sat down and got time to play a game against the Russians as I wanted to see how the computer played.

It was Myself (Wehrmacht) another Expert computer (Wehrmacht) and 2 Russians on normal. I used fixed positions and high resources (I enjoy the rush of a big battle)

The game started out normal, the Russians have a clear advantage with the conscripts on high resources, even without high resources. They captured about 2/3 of the map (Berlin) and my ally and I fought back very difficult with many volksgrenadiers and I eventually was able to keep calling in stormtroopers.

I had a sniper and about 2 or 3 units of Stormtroopers fighting for control of the map (right side) and was barely holding on, an influx of volksgrenadiers and grenadiers were steady but always getting killed. I started producing Stugs and fought back alebit soon I realized that my ally was overwhelmed with T-34s and mass conscripts and other infantry.

They fell and I soon fell afterwards...I've always considered myself a half decent player, no where near genius or anything but...I get utterly destroyed as did my ally.

Is this a common practice or...do I just suck? (lol)

The Panzer Elite are basically, in my eyes a combination of the Waffen-SS and the panzer divisions "deeper" elements.

The Heer (Wehrmacht) in the game is poor representation of the Heer in my eyes, but overall for a game, it's pretty good.

Also, what someone earlier said about the theater of war, yes that's very true.

Eastern Front / Re: Did anyone actually win world war 2?

No body really won, but some came out on top of others, truly in War, there really is no victors, as Shadow said.

The United States, France, Britain and the rest of the "allied" countries kinda lost in my eyes because they created another war right after wards. (Cold War)
