Regarding that other game, the fact you played bad or not.. does not change how the RE doc emplacements are currently just one of the most ridiculous strategies in the game, along side bunkers; which is also a big downside for Bk... But perhaps as I already illustrated above, the RE doc emplacements might be even more ridiculous than bunkers. Except how AB airstrikes deal only 10% damage to bunkers.. this is actually the only thing that might be even more ridiculous.
Also, I disagree about blitz being naturally countered by emplacements... If i face emplacements I honestly prefer blitz over any other doctrine. Which is funny because I counter blitz using emplacements since it seems that no other player knows how to stop it...
Here are some hints at why i like blitz against emplacements:
-blitz ability
-stug iii and mortar 81 smoke
-demo squads (that can come out of walls sometimes which is just a bonus)
-stuh
-schrecks which do a hilarious amount of damage to emplacements
-ostwind rapid fire HE mode
-a secret vehicle that 2 shots mg emplacements (shhh this is a secret... i only told like 2 other people.)
-bundle grenades

I think the difference here and your 88 crusade is that there is blatant misplays against RE doc and the players are refusing to adapt at all. like tiger's replay in question where he kept bringing in off-map tank support against a 17pdr spam... that's like saying the 88s are OP because players should be able to defeat them with direct assaults and not even bother trying to arty it.
for the record, i still think to this day that the 88s spam is avoidable on larger maps. The only change from 88s since then is their durability to artillery which now I think crippled them to either planting them right outside bases as siege weaponry or counter emplacements to a failed team doctrine composition that elected not to bring any arty.
Yeah your style was much more storm heavy, they ARE extremely efficient... I don't really use stuhs often either to be honest except against inf doc. inf or ab doc. the scatter on stuh really made it unappealing for anything more than to be used as a psychological weapon. it's almost like a force retreat weapon, lesser experienced (and sometimes higher experienced) players will hit retreat after the first BOOM even if it missed.
I mean the global one that gives insane buffs without penalty. but the assault ability is also pretty freaking strong if it didn't glitch on my 70% of the time. I have shit luck with it.

Perhaps less effective, but definitely not dealing 0 damage. So your example again doesn't fit... Not saying that AB airstrikes should destroy bunkers though, but they should deal more damage, otherwise we should really consider throwing rocks/stones rather than any bombs. At least it would be less expensive.. and the dealt damage would be the same results.

Lehr said you asked him to post the replay on High Valley about emplacement spam, Leonida told me you asked him few times to post for you some time ago, and most funny, you even asked me to post for you time ago. I have no problem with you asking other people to start the topic (they wouldn't do it if they didn't agree with you since you're not forcing them anyhow) just so then you can bring your opinion right after.

Lol, maybe I've played the game for too long, but whenever I hear Warhawks talk about past BK, I definitely don't think glory... I think more gory...
Dark times when KCH production was 80% of an axis build order, AB was chosen 5% of the time, a time when I could play RA doc and alt tab 60% of the game and still come out with the highest score in a 4v4, stuh was a walking 100% hitting 17pdr HE shot (yeah you think the bug right now is bad... put wheels on the fucker), and oh god so much more. I'm sure Warhawks has similar memories but through it all we masochists play it again and again like the real addicts we are. Even now Warhawks doesn't play bk actively (that I know of... I think he is avoiding me... COME GET ME HONEY) nor do I, but we find ourselves dicking around on the forum lol.
