IIRC, the newer M4s get a better kind of AP ammo, and some American tanks have an extra MG if you put a soldier on it (I know the Stewarts do). If you get Call-In Stage 3 and sell the outdated/surplus equipment (2.8cm AT gun, 3.7 pak, armored cars, etc), then you can fit more tanks in with those sweet .50s.

really well defended, that went about as well as you could've hoped! unfortunate for the AI that their pathfinding took them through the chokepoint on the left, but definitely not a bad thing for you! also regarding the penetration chart, i guess i didn't explain it very well, sorry! there's no way (that i know of) to change the displayed shell type in the pre-battle screen. if you want to see, for example, the penetration value of an APC-HE shell in your 4.7cm gun, then you need to make sure that it has one in the chamber when you finish the mission. then when you're preparing for the next battle, the penetration chart will display the values for an APC-HE shell because that's what's loaded in the gun. this is a useful trick for your own units too, as many guns/vehicles carry different types of AP round that are more or less effective at different ranges (APCBC vs APCR for example). alternatively, you can use the unit viewer in the extras menu to view the penetration charts for any unit, although this requires quiting and reloading your save every time so it's not ideal. glad to see you making use of mines! they are INSANELY cost-effective if you take the time to use them properly. i dont tend to bother with AP mines personally, as the sheer volume of enemy infantry renders them useless unless you plant them in the hundreds. AT mines however are incredibly powerful! if you want more of them (and believe me you do!), bring along an engineering supply truck. not only will these resupply your engineers with mines via the supply circle (like an ammo crate), they also carry a BUNCH of AT and AP mines in their inventory (i think around 60-80 of both), meaning if you're quick with your micro you can lay some really significant AT minefields for safe and easy kills! if you do wanna use AP mines, click and drag with right mouse to set up a line 2-3 mines thick - it's way quicker/easier than doing them individually! as for your research, i'd definitely skip the lee and spend three points on a sherman, either variant is fine as the differences are very minor (in-game). then spend another two points on a rifle squad, the difference in damage output/survivability between tier 1 and 2 infantry is so important, particularly when you start encountering high tier enemy troops more frequently. looking forward to the next video, keep it up! (:

Hey thanks man, I really appreciate that! It finally felt like I had a decent upper hand simply because I didn't have the terrain working against me. I had to defend from below and attack from below and that just didn't work out super well (at least the attack didn't). And that makes more sense. I tried hard to find it, lol. I really like the info you have! I will follow the recommendation you offered!

@everettfisher8752 Ай бұрын
that was a tough fight! i think you could've done better if you slowed down a little during the actual attack - you were very methodical at first but then it seemed you got a little frustrated and just started throwing more units in (it happens to me too hahha). overall i think you played well though! some hints/thoughts: 6:16 the penetration value on units displays whatever shell is loaded - in this case both guns had HE shells loaded, so the penetration chart was the same for both (all HE shells show 62mm penetration across all ranges on all guns regardless of calibre). if you want to see the penetration chart for a captured gun you have to make sure it has AP loaded before you finish the mission! 31:55 you read my mind ahahha, you should definitely focus on getting better infantry, even if it's only tier 2! i somehow didnt figure this out for ages but the brackets before an infantry unit - (1) to (4) - indicate the tier, with 1 being lowest and 4 being highest. a plus sign, like (2+) or (3+) indicates units that come with veterancy already. you should definitely be using tier 2 infantry at the bare minimum going forward! 38:25 this was really unlucky, pretty much a worst-case scenario for your infantry. when a massive threat like that appears, you should try and prioritise getting units to safety and then neutralising the threat. you probably could have saved most of the infantry squad and definitely the mortar if you ordered them to sprint away. otherwise well played, just very unlucky with the rifle grenade accuracy (those trees were a nightmare!) 42:37 when you're getting mortared, always disperse your infantry as much as possible. when they're bunched up like that, it just takes one lucky shot from the mortar - and they WILL get lucky, I swear the AI cheats with mortar accuracy in this game! 46:08 that was actually an AT grenade that took out your tank, not a mortar round - you can even see the soldier that threw it pick himself back up after the explosion! generally speaking you should always try to have your tanks behind your infantry, or at the very least surrounded by them, so that enemy soldiers cant sneak up and do things like that! again, sorry for leaving a wall of text below your video, ahahha! it's very easy to point out mistakes in hindsight, and very difficult to recognise when you're making them in-game - i've definitely been guilty of all of the above before! hopefully this helps you out a little. looking forward to the next video! oh, and for your research, you should definitely get the rifle squad! if you want to go the ranger route for your infantry, get the veteran squad too, otherwise i'd save your points and put them towards the lee; you're gonna need the 75mm when panzer 3s start showing up!

@DocPlays_ Ай бұрын
Wow! Thats actually a lot of insight. I really appreciate this information. I realize a lot of this in retrospect honestly. When it came down to my infantry being ambushed like that my first instinct should've been to retreat them in order to at least try and save my men. I kind of cold start a lot of my games so often times I haven't quite warmed up and I get too focused on other things. The tank was a stupid choice but there was so much infantry there that the only way I could beat them (since I lost my mortar and armored cars) was the tank. Thankfully though I do have an additional one I can call in due to the accidental double click. The vet infantry is also very interesting, I can usually get by with volume of fire but if I'm wanting to do those little squad tactics I'm definitely going to need better infantry to keep up with that. I was also not aware of the penetration! In the next video I'll have to look through that. I can't believe this isn't something I've never noticed before.

thanks for the shout out! glad i could be some help (: here's another tip: the M20 isn't the only vehicle to have cool stuff stashed in the inventory. the M3A1 halftrack comes with 24(!) AT mines in it, so on defence missions you can quickly drive it out to the front, have the gunner jump out and lay a bunch of mines, then have it drive back and join the line as a very capable anti-infantry vehicle. and of course, it can carry a whole squad of infantry too!

@@DocPlays_ yep, it's a complicated game! as far as i know those are the only two vehicles on the US side with interesting equipment (the M2 halftrack also comes with AT mines, I think 16?). the most interesting thing you can pull out of most vehicles is MG ammo, since they carry thousands of rounds. don't underestimate the power of giving a high-vet rifleman a belt-fed MG42 and a few thousands rounds to play with! speaking of MGs, all but one (i think the 101st airborne?) of the US squads don't have machine guns. it can be worth scavenging an MG or two and handing them out to the squad to give them a boost of firepower. the M2 halftrack i mentioned above carries 2 .30cal MGs and 6000+ rounds of ammo that you can distribute to your squads. beyond that, there are some REALLY niche things you can do with the inventory system, like swapping ammo types between compatible weapon systems (for example, taking .50cal AP-I ammo from AA emplacements and giving it to tanks). the most useful thing at this stage of the game is taking the 37mm ammo out of the US AT gun and giving it to your stuart, as the AT gun uses different (better) AP rounds. sorry for the wall of text, i really enjoy this game and love learning all the little intricacies. looking forward to the next episode!
