v5.2.7 Discord

Playing with Mencius vs Kwok & idliketoplaybetter on late BETA of v5.2.7 before it was released, should have uploaded this game earlier, but didn't have the time except now.

i hope no one would take this as a proof that Panther spam is OP, as Panther.A still had the wrong price on that game.. which was later fixed.

I'll be honest, I'm surprised we lasted as long as we did. GG.

Frankly, you had so many resources I think you could've ended this game much earlier with the manpower blitz + more panthers and Stuh42.

Looking forward to a rematch.

I was also extremely surprise how long the allies were able to hold the ground. It seemed all the time that the losses were HUGE, it’s like Americans had BK fun mode activated and could roll out a Sherman and a Jackson every 1 minute.

we call that supply yard upgrade

For some reason Tiger doesn't play as aggressive in VT games and focus more around doing only as much as to hold these rather than to use the res to push for enemie base. The supply yard came into effect later in the game only.

as soon the 4. Panther were incomeing the game was basicly gg. You couldve just pushed into his jacksons and kill them.
Maybe 1 Panther when you got unlucky maybe 2 wouldve died but the defensives wouldve been gone.

For allies, it's pretty much a game against time. If they don't manage to dominate axis and they start spamming op units like panthers, it's just gg. Only thing that can stop the game to be over is SP (the only allied axis-like unit), which will eventually go the tank heaven nonetheless.

In my past 3 days, all games ended in a similiar way.
Our game vs kwok for example. We got pushed back, panthers came, we won.

Then i had a game with tavares vs two enemie mates. We won, 70% map controle. Panthers, came, tavares went for pershings, Jagdpanther came..GG
Yesterday this happened twice, including the game we had. Things were balanced out, then came panthers and we had not yet the ammount of domination needed to withstand panthers.

I had games that lasted just as long, we were Allied and the Axis team spammed 88s, and even King Tigers.. but we still managed to win. Here is an example posted by Walder (viewtopic.php?f=16&t=4263)

So, i wouldn't say Axis always dominate in late game.. for me it's 50/50 balanced, as it goes both ways.. probably even except that Allies have the upper hand mid game thanks to MK7s.

That doesn't say anything about playing vs. Panther.

Also 88s generally aren't a huge problem to counter. And I'm wondering on how to "spam" a 210 fuel King Tiger..
