Just got through my first play through with EF... Here is what I think: (Played on Scheldt with 1 Ally on Easy and 1 Wehr on Normal)
- A Red Army's best friend is munitions- I was surprised that munitions was what I needed most, fuel being not to bad, and population not being a problem at all.
- I chose Urban Combat, I wanted to see how the Ings would do with flame thrower + street fighting upgrades. At first I was like
, but then I was like :/ . With 2 flamethrowers, body armor, and a low cost, I had 3 squads of Ings completely destroy a few German strongholds. I would suggest they get 1 flamethrower, not 2.
- Everyone talking about the heavy mortar was quite right, they are indeed strong- Too strong. If you have 2 or more you pretty much have priests without the cost or cool down.
- Conscripts- Thought I was right at first about them being spammed to death, but that was until I ran into an MG42. That pretty much countered that argument.
- IS-2, nice and strong, a bit too strong if you ask me. Looks very nice, and props to the creator.
Overall, I am very pleased with the mod. I do feel, however, that the Soviets are a tad to strong- Not in all areas mind you, but certain ones.
