CoH 2 - The Western Front Armies: Oberkommando West

Great faction all around, has the best engineer units comes with 4 STG'S! Also has better tanks that wermacht but is lot more expensive in fuel so keep that in mind. This faction also lacks snipers, mortars and good AT guns, although it can go in buildings and retreat which is a plus, it just isn't as powerful and as good as the wermacht's pak 40. But overall this faction is a good pick.

The OKW is an overpowered faction that makes the game almost pay to win. At the beginning of the game the OKW start with the most powerful engineer unit and will win the first engagement if this unit is used to rush the enemy. With this early game advantage the OKW can secure key points on the map like bridges and critical resources like gas. For much of the early game the OKW can overwhelm most factions with...

Furthermore, at least for the English version for some...

This faction has trucks which allow you to make forward bases in the frontline which is an absolute win, the medical center allows you to reinforce troops and heal them in the battlefield. Make stuka launcher trucks to bombard the enemies flanks and the infantry is extremely strong,. is this...

The OKW great vehicles and infantry bad resource economy. The OKW is based on more seasoned and late-war tech they have some interesting quirks. -All units have 5 veteran ranks meaning if your good at managing them they can be a unstoppable, -They have good tanks and infantry Engineers start off with STG's making them great assault units and can be upgraded to panzerschrecks, the Stuka half track clears blobs like...

Highly Recommend for a couple of reasons. First, you can use the salvage ability on wrecked/abandoned vehicles and get fuel, and you can siphon anti tank guns, that's fun. Second, You have the best tanks in the GAME, and your kongstiger and panthers can be a pain for the allies to deal with. Third, you have early and late game advantage, with the allies having to stop you mid game or the oberkommando flushed them...
