You can also build sandbags right behind natural yellow cover (like trees and bushes) so that if the enemy tries to use it their units will move to the yellow cover instead because of how the move command works

always happy when new CoH2 channel roll in

[@oosyrag]

Besides just the straight angle from your base and the opponent base, you could also consider the availability of cover within range from those directions as well and adjust accordingly.

[@GonkOrange]

Yup definitely! Lots of things to consider, I just wanted to give a general rule

[@bartoszwycisk3303]

Can you compare sanbags, soviet barricade and tank traps as source of green cover. Building time, durability, can infantry walk through them, can vehicles crash them etc. Pros and cons.

[@chekkibrekkiv1.245]

Soviet sandbags let at least 18 models get in green cover and build time is like 10 secs vet 1 vet 0 20

[@naksachaisaejane1982]

@@chekkibrekkiv1.245 vet 0 is like 18 seconds, standard of sandbags from mainline squads.

Some intel bulletin doesn't work any more can you talk about it? Like OKW 2% extra penetration panzerwreck, is that apply to panzerfusilieres too?

[@dudeguybro]

Gotta say, man, thank you for the quick, educational videos! These have helped a lot.

[@contentdeleted6428]

There is one question we all asked ourselves. Can you hear the radio of an OKW player with radio intercept while he has radio silence active?

[@darkfoxxx321]

I’m guilty of the Soviet sandbag. Also great series. Eating these up

[@GonkOrange]

Bon appetit

[@taytertot9382]

Got any tips for avoiding those situations where it looks like all your models are in green cover but one is actually just slightly off angle enough that an mg gets the suppress?

[@TommyLikeTom]

All I really want to know is where the button is. In COH1 the engineer had it. Now there is "rear echlon troops" and the option to build sandbags is not there

[@FordBluIhmseinneuerBesitzer]

Good Video m8

[@scorpiontdalpha9799]

I want to see more unit focus videos How about Assault Guards?

[@kampfer91]

Plant a mine in front of sandbag is what i sometime do :P

[@candenizkurnaz2141]

until brits come and use it to activate their cover bonus

[@haaansolo8568]

Another great tip, thx!!

[@rakibalhassan5156]

Thanku

[@Renner3473]

No. Just no. Place sandbags on the edge of the circle closest to the enemy side. You get cover in the circle and the enemy can't use that cover and cap.

[@Renner3473]

Plus if you place sandbags right on the flag then the enemy gets sight on you if they control the point. You ever sat there and tried to cap with mortars falling on your head?

[@GonkOrange]

Why would you place it in area your enemy can use it if you could instead place it in a spot that's only beneficial to you.

[@GonkOrange]

Also imagine this situation: They cap the point that you built the sandbag on the edge of, then they move their troops behind that green cover, and now they have a beautiful cover position to shoot you from while you're trying to recap the point with no cover.

[@dudeguybro]

I've never seen sandbags placed like this in any remotely high level CoH play. I'll stick with the pros and Gonk on this one.

[@GonkOrange]

@@dudeguybro people put Soviet sandbags like that sometimes if there's no better option, because they're so big (see the example at the end of the video)
