A match with some interesting tank battles later on. I didn't play very well, but found it quite a fun game anyway.

With the move of tannenburg to regular CoH, Grodno has become my new favourite EF map. I'll check this out.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

Yeah, this was the first time I played on Grodno and I liked it. The map felt good.

Hopefully the game is kind of interesting, but I haven't watched it back myself yet. Maybe it'll be one of those games that feels exciting when you're playing and looks like a series of idiotic decisions by everyone involved when you watch it back again.

You went a very light T1 for someone rushing T3. Only 3 1/2 units when people usually go for 5. Had you gone for the extra units you could've contended the RHS fuel point. You realised this a bit later and produced an extra bike and volks but it was too late by then.

That's a sound analysis. I'm bad for floating MPP, it's something I really need to work on. Also, I think my total lack of AT capability was a serious problem, and my doctrine choice was poor. Blitzkrieg for the stormtroopers (would have been good against snipers, sneaking up with MP44s, and providing AT firepower) would have been a far better choice I think.

Blitz is usually the better choice when you go T3, unless you backtech after the shock factor of pumas has gone.
