Anyone have some ideas on how to play Germany better when you dont enjoy having a V...

Rommel is my lowest win percentage general and I seem to struggle with it...

Ideas that work are appreciated! Especially when you are going against brits or USA.

Thoughts? Comments? Snyde remarks accepted...

i assume you're talking 4v4s, it really depends on if you like mech or not, if you like mech then probably at least 12 mech then kings or arties depending on your opinion(personally i enjoy kings, haven't done german arties in over a year). also make sure you don't go into the red in ammo or oil since germany's eco already sucks.

in 4v4 i used to go 16 mechs after that just replace dead one's with artys,for me german heavy tanks/kings works only vs nuke or in desert (they way too slow on trees , artys will smack em easy

The key with rommel really all depends on where you are on the map (and this is isnt for 1v1 or 2v2).

If you are in the front, you are essentially stuffed because you havent got much of an eco to start with.

If you are in the back, you can eco up a bit and then really punch out mechs. German mechs are pretty strong...so whilst you get out a 12 pack, you can continue to eco up and eventually migrate to tanks.

The actual build orders and whatever else goldman can teach you, but this is a general, broad based piece of tactical advice. Once the german eco is up and chugging along, you should have no reason not to hold your own against others (all things like player ability and bombs being equal).

Goldman would be a good teacher when it comes to this stuff. IF you can get a hold of him, I suggest you get GhostIce (or known to you lot as Ice). Those two have been very very good players for a long long time.
