Voted Germany.

I like playing with germany, because they have good tanks 8)
And because when Medal of Honor:AA and other fps shooters came to market you were forced to play as the "good guys" so it is a nice change to play with germany for once.

Instinct

I prefer the Germans because I can identify myself more with their equipment and I must say I like most of it.
Quality instaed of Quantity is what I need :)
But I'm not a fan of the heavy tank equipment as I want to have quick moving tanks and good firepower, but on the otherhand, making the enemy pie into his pants when comming across with a Kingtiger is a nice experience too :)

Futermore I like the Allied Tankhunters, fast and powerful, but nothing to compare with a neat Panther :D

Definitely Germany.
They introduce more innovations, both in weapons and tactics, than all the allies put together.
Its always fun to rewrite the story

Instinct

21-02-2007, 19:42

Well, a problem of the German equipment...
tooo much innovation. Not far enough spareparts for every type of tanks they had, not to speak about all their different versions. :shady:

Allies- I normally play as a recon/artilerry type in multiplayer but when it comes to tanks I like the Balance of The allies, tank destroyers plus a couple well placed scouts make toughened SS cry. :twisted: Not To Mention Shermans are a great all around early/late game tank. 8)

24-04-2007, 21:52

Germans due to their armour (no way *not* to love the Panzer II(L) with a 20mm autocannon), but other than that I really like the Allies thansk to the versatility of the Garand. Makes your rifleman units extremely allround.

When playing without reinforcements The Soviet Union is better, thx to middle tanks.
And do not forget Zis-6.

Soviet troops and equipment better hidden by the green color.
But ISU-152 is a total ****!

Instinct

13-06-2007, 22:20

Yep, the soviets have good middle tank advantage. The T-34 series are hard to kill :)

Germany I'm kinda partial my grandfather was a wehrmact heer soldat and I love the panzer IV it was the true workhorse of the panzer divisons very
versatile ,reliable and could take the fight to the enemy also russians were told to capture them if possible because the reliability and availibility of parts .
another note in its history it served with various armies armies until 1967 a proud end for a tank that was over 30 years old it had a long service life so its
good points must have out weiged its draw backs :grandpa:

Allies, since I like their infantry.

Tanks aren't great, but Soviets bore me. And German tanks are unbelievably bad in fow :/. I think the panther and tiger are underpowered, and tanks in general are far more vulnerable than in showw2. I agree the tiger was as fast as many medium tanks of the time it does no good to have a breakthrough tank if it cant keep up with the attacking force it was just not very good for city fighting the panther on the other hand was not able to use its full potential of speed do to straight cut gears in the final drive witch broke easily if the tank was driven hard . I think that its speed should be kept around same speed as panzerIV THAT IS IF VEHICLE ACCURACY IS AN ISSUE WITH THE DEVELOPER AND PLAYERS OF THE GAME. sorry panther fans I love german armor but this is the truth.

I got to say the allies. I just simply love their design of Tanks etc. and the sherman is all around tank that was easy to repair, modify, build :hurray: and Destroy :baseball: Well it served the WW2 with honor but they only won because The allies had more shermans than German had Tigers and Panthers :oops: and I also love their Soldiers who had good weps :D

But russians have good tanks but I just don't like them but I love Katuysha :hurray:

And German who had the most Overpowered tank in WW2 but They have too many choises for me and too slow tanks :cry: Yes i know that they have fast tanks also ;)

Germany for me. I like designs of german tanks :). Give us PzVIII Maus :) or Pz VII Loewe[Lion] (but this project never left the drawing board, and was dropped in late 1942 in favor of the Panzer VIII Maus). :(

pelitys

18-10-2008, 20:20

Got to say Allies :) Germans are otherwise quite fun but their tanks are easily flanked because they are slow and expensive.. It's fun devising different strategies on how to flank their tank successfully with much weaker armored Su100's or Sluggers. But on some maps Germans have the upper hand and on others Allies, so I pick according to that :P Both sides are really fun, especially gerries because you can spam King Tigers..

Germany because i am sick of playing with the usual nations expecially with the shooter games like COD and Medal of Honor playing only with the good nice guys saving the world from the monsters and tyranny expecially in the last game of Call of Duty when you can see only the fanatical russians showing no mercy for the german soldiers and the leader screaming of burning the whole germany to the ground . I am sick of that .

Yep, I agree. I didnt like the fact that you are either forced to gun down wounded German soldiers or soldiers who are surrendering or let the bots burn them alive with molotow coctails in CoD5. I do wonder what would have been said about CoD5 if you´d played as a German and were supposed to gun down surrendering US GI´s or killing wounded Russians? War is hell but CoD5 is a game and games are supposed to be fun, not making you feel sick... :sick:

Ps.
And Cod5 SP was a really really disappointing adventure...

Voted Soviets, at first i was playing defensive mining the map and sitting back with artillery but now i like advancing with heavy tanks KV- 85 and IS 3 . Soviet are good for all styles of strategy, both defensive and offensive so you arent limited to 1 style of game plan and can adapt depending on the enemies strategy.

22-02-2009, 19:51

Well, I've never played as Japan in another RTS game so that might be my pick if I could. But I choose Germany.

SS-Kommando

01-03-2009, 18:13

Germany is still my favourite nation -both because of their troop selection and history- but I have started to grow more fond of the Russians aswell, due to their nice selection of units. Like Mishkin said, the Russians are flexible and can fight well both in offence and defence, much thanks to the awesome self-propelled artillery they have in the ISU-152; the Germans have nothing in the artillery department that can match the ISU-152 (the Hummel will blow up almost just as easy as the sFH when facing an ISU-152 in an artillery duel.)

At the moment it's Germany for camping, and USA for it's great tank destroyers that are made for flanking. Though Germany seems to be the winner with KT and sturmtiger spam.

I actually think Russia seems to be stronger in defence because of their ISU-152 as I said above. Overall I would say Germany is the strongest nation, though, even though players' skill levels is an important factor too.

I think USSR is the strongest nation.

1) The Kv-2 can kill any german/brit/USA tank. It's very accurate at it's maximum range of 170 meters (no other tank can shoot that far to get it). It's also very effective against infantry/AT guns/mortars/horwitzers and costs only 55.
Something has to be done with this tank in the final patch :roll:.

2) The marines are realy good, killing infantry at long distances with their SVT-40's.

3) Su-76 is great for killing infantry: very accurate at 150 meters.

pelitys

01-03-2009, 20:23

I just don't understand how it's possible to reliably kill tanks with KV-2. With extremely unlikely conditions everything is possible and I've tried it, but on level ground without any fancy conditions it's impossible to kill something heavier than T34. You just might disable the engine, tracks or the turret but that doesn't count as a kill. Please explain. There's no hull damaged -messages and concussion only kills crew when it's hit from very short distance.

politruk

01-03-2009, 22:44

I just don't understand how it's possible to reliably kill tanks with KV-2. With extremely unlikely conditions everything is possible and I've tried it
No "fancy" conditions i usually kill a panther/jagdpanther in 3 hits minimum. With KingTiger it takes about 20 shots; you can either wait till you kill it, or disable tracks/engine and flank it.

P.S. Today in one game killed 2 centurions, a bishop and 2 fireflys using Kv-2. Trust me the weapon is very effective :yes: .

12-03-2009, 01:05

as you saw, its the only reliable weapon the russians have ;)

Evilsausage

20-03-2009, 19:10

I voted for the germans. Even tho i really enjoy all factions.

Funny thing the HE-shell of a KV-2 can knock the Turret clean of from a King tiger at close range. But it requires that the King tiger is bussy and doing something else + some luck.

But its a nice feature in the game tho. Heavy HE-shells where know to knock of turrets, even if they didn't penetrate the armor. Really love these little things in MoW that no other RTS has.

I enjoy playing as the Brits/Americans as it makes a nice change from the usual Ger vs Rus which is boooooring now...

Still that rarely happens so i play as the Russians as i can't stand playing as the Germans - purely a glory team for glory players... Highly amusing to join a game only to see the 8 players that have already joined are already on the German team... Be different chaps...

I thoroughly look forward to playing as the Japs!

12-07-2009, 18:05

I like playing as USA.

Their Shermans gun can take out pretty much anything, and the hellcat is awesome.

I also like the Slugger, it's slow but it can take out any tank you throw at it.

GB would be my second option, I like the Firefly, the Crusader, and their 90mm AT gun.

13-07-2009, 03:07

I like the USA.usually im facing germany,and most of the time win,I slap them down by with my shermans and syperior infantry killing there med tanks and infantry and when they try to get back up witht there heavy tanks i slap them down again with a nice hellcat or slugger.Patton would be proud.

21-07-2009, 18:06

Germany, panzer1 + infantry makes a great early flagcapping attack and flanking with the puma in direct control rocks my socks :) Stormtroopers are great as well, though I guess I'm one of the few here who's not playing germany cause of the kingtigers and panthers. I rarely use these since they're too damn slow and a simple pak40 or a puma does the job better. Is everybody playing high resources tanks only or something?

Still waiting for the japanese, cause I'd play with them as well. Can't wait ;)

Panter is fast...And nice...
It has good frontal armor and a good gun yeh, but most of the time ingame I see heavy tanks as more of a huge 'kill me' sign then a threat. I used a panther once on a frontline game though and it wiped out the entire enemy's defence on it's own :baseball: I just like playing with early/medium tanks instead of the really heavy ones, more fun and dynamic. Logging ap shells on each other's heavy tank that keep bouncing off ain't much fun.

foxforcefour

24-08-2009, 06:40

Since I am rather new (although I can play other as other nations as well) I like the German Army a lot, just because it is usually a little bit stronger than opposing armies. Their motorized equipment is really good and the elite soldiers are a big plus on the battlefield.

Dennis07

24-08-2009, 11:38

Germany because it has the best tanks like i.e the pz4 or tiger. :grandpa:

British, as I just like them..

I love those 2pounder guns as they can do some real quick damage to any infantry inside a building.

Also the 2pounder on that deuce and a half is pretty good fun.. ok it movements are not the best in direct control.. hit something small and it seem to take ages to back up turn etc. But use this to attack some infantry and it does some serious damage.. great to support attacking infantry.. pop some smoke, let your riflemen attack with a bren squad to help out and that deuce to support it all. :hurray:

(just make sure you're not facing tanks..)

Mostly I seem to focus on infantry with support.. and if I buy tanks I wish to buy them in bulk and use them all at once.. my only trouble is always that the infantry seems to run behind the tanks.. so it's a lot of micro managements to pull off some effective push..

all in all in order of my preference.

UK

Infantry Battle

British = I love Sten, EM3 Rifles and their Bren Guns.
USA = They are intelligent and they know how to survive in the heat of a battle.

Tank Battles

Germanys = King Tiger of Course, Tiger, or Panther
Russia = T-26 and all those fast vehicles
USA = Stuart Tank, m16 Half Track, and Shermans. I like speed.

What i dislike is
Japan = Tanks can't withstand bullets in real war, and their engines are so loud and slow.
