You forget that Herterz are very poor without the acpr rounds unlock thing as they are weak and dont penetrate much, also Jagdpanther all 3 defesnvie bonuses ftw extra 5% less damage taken and mroe accuracy on 1st one 2nd 15% mroe speed 3rd 15% more health.

The british are best with Arty support or Commados, lock the map down with the 2nd most powerful At gun in the game after the 88 build fireflys which have this AT gun mounted on them drop in commandos wrech havok/ pound the crap out of them with arty, chagre, home in time for xmas

Oh and Spider rangers havent been nerfed they are much better since OF came out where rocket launchers actualy do damage now and they never bounce off for me, i managed to take down a kinf tiger with 4 sets of rangers with out 1 casultiy with a good bit of cover and tictacs.

And i normally play as British Commandos Canadian Arty or PE Luftwaffe Scorched Earth and occasionally TD's and used to play any of the 3 Wehrmacht

And Ntrailz i didnt lose a single vicorty ponit out of 1000 when we palyed

More ranting The graphics are ace me and NTZ were playing a game last night and the calipoe barrage reflections over the water were ace, the nice dint in the brige aswell was pretty good which we had made Although this was 2nd only to when me NTZ and ked had a game and we pushed inot their base and we were bombarding them i called in 3 creeping barrages in their base its was soo cool looknig you couldnt see anythnig for ages due to the smoke
But it doesent stop their dont admire the graphics, admire the sounds they are trully ace, every piece of arty can be differentiated the calliopes the 105's the neblewerfers, then you have all the chatter you have, one the stickies with me is on a rainy map with a flakvierling tank " Open top tank, pissing down rain bad engineering" i know its crap but was hillarious when it happened, and of cousre there is "YUVOOLLLL My DEAR". And i really like that noise the wehrmacht HQ makes when you go to battle phase.

LOL WHOOPS, THOUGHT YOU MENT CITY OF HEROES LMAO.

I also bought it recently, find me under my username "Siddharta" (KillaDog was taken, so I took my second nick)... Im still a noob and havent finished the first campaign yet, so youll have to put up with that

I was fighting a whole load of Rangers once, and not one of them managed to score a single kill on my tanks. Granted, they were Panthers and I did keep doing the correct thing and have them facing the front armour, but I swear most rounds just bounced off or missed.

And hetzers are only poor substitutes in later stages, as by then you should have the panthers. I find them to be an excellent early anti infantry weapon as that machine gun is quite good at close range.

When do you normally play, Fluffy? Then we can do a comp stomp to practise.

Just a note, who has finished the Invasion of Normandy campaign? I got stuck on the mission where you defend Hill 317 for the second time. It's the first mission where you get strategic points.

I just can't organise the forces well enough in time. I just get swamped and all I have are half beaten-to-a-pulp infantry squads. And scrapping them isnt really practical as the attack comes so quickly.

The other campaigns were piss easy however.

Sorry completely forgot about this thread...I play whenever someone asks me to...which hasnt happened so far except for ares today when I couldnt play

Gonna add you and kill4dog on steam, maybe we can arrange something there, just drop me a line whenever you're in the mood.

Rockets dont bounce of they always absrob into the armour with white dust, Panthers are the fastest heavy tank there is and can be hard to hit but rangers are pretty accurate, but you cant hit everything, hertzers are good through out the game due to the great frontal armour, as they are tank hunters crap againts inf i dont even bother alot of the time if i ahve inf around, the only problem i think is that they have poor damage half of the time but enough to go one on one with a sherman and win

Me ked Ntz and Hito play nearly every night now aswell

I loved the single-player campaigns of Company of Heroes, and really wanted to get into the Multiplayer.... but Relic Online never seemed to work for me Poor connectivity because of the P2P protocol... my router and firewalls always hated it.

Shame!

Just lvled to rank 2 with the US (2vs2) today after our opponents apparently got disconnected while loading the map

Pretty hooked on the game at the mo, 5:1 W:L so far.

Cant believe I neglected RTS all these years...last one I played (and enjoyed) was C&C Red Alert 2 on the PS1 via "LAN".
Still have poor micro/macro at times though (hence 2vs2 lol), often have units just sitting about not doing much when fighting on several fronts..

Btw I dont know about you guys but I always enjoy watching shoutcasts of games I play, if you do too you should check out the Drophacked:Battlelines shoutcasts 1&2 (found here), epic games.
They are both over an hour long though iirc so bring time
