1. The Panzer Elite, that's my first-loved faction in Coh.
2. Soviet, The blackguard vet 3 Naval inf and the IS-2s shoot tigers like shoot paper tanks (when I'm the Wehr vs AI Expert).
3. I dont hate any factions but I hate those guys who play as brits and only build A LOT OF emplacements.

1) Wehrmacht as my favorite; the only faction that can do anything without a doctrine, and very consistent throughout the whole game.  Has well rounded units regardless of whatever tier (2 or 3 or 4) the player first chooses to go that can counter any type of threat they may face.

2) American as my second favorite; strafing run = win!

3) I hate Brits; even RMC.  Bus humping resource points all day is just low...

Haha :D, the wehrmacht indeed is the most flexible faction in CoH (that's what I think) but they're required some experiences first. Althought the first edition I bought is OF, and later is gold to have full factions but I think the PE is the first faction everyone should play (most new guys use their inf units crush blindly to the HMG until they're pinned or worse, play PE is the best way to let them make them see that mistake and the way to fix it faster) then the wehr. You play the Werh smoothly, you can play/become familar other faction better/faster. I dont like the wehr best but I respect them much to build tatics and strategies (not because they're nazi/german blah blah blah).
That's is what I say, from when I'm a newbie until what I'm now. Sorry for bad english, first post Im writing too long, but have someone think like me (Yauz) make me... feel exciting.

time to go against all...  8)

1. Brits - from the very beginning of OF I just fall in love in Brits ( I just like British nation, I have no clue why - if you are brit, I like you! ). ofc me nad my mates were poor as hell, so we had those 'unregistered' copies, and played again and again against ourselves ( we are both kind of campers, sorry lads). That's why I liked brits. And Cromwell is my favourite allies tank, and Enfield No.4 is sooo awesome rifle. I think that explains everything.

2. Wehrmacht - due to their equpment awesomness - Tiger tanks, MG42s, MP44s, loads of other great stuff. Though I still get my ass kicked when I play Wehr.

3. Both PE and US. Maybe US even more. I hate this powergaming, where victory is sooo important :/ and I just hate this pointless fuel race with US. On the other side PE is one of those hit-and-run factions, and often my attacks end on 'hit' because there is nobody to run later... and I hate those paper-made armoured cars, halftracks and other stuff.

So here is mine:

1.) Panzerelite because it's an offensive faction with nice and strong infantry units. I like the factions design because it's not that easy to play like Wehr, furthermore you have interesting units like Vamp and Berge.
Tanks aren't that great, but that doesn't matter due to the doctrine choices (Nashorn/88, Hetzer/JP 4, Jagdpanther, double Shrecks) and of course Marder.

2.) Soviets because of their interesting infantry, T-34 and all those lovely tanks. Not to forget the nices doctrines.

3.) Brits. Because they are lame.. At least the vCOH ones, RMC is something entirely different.

...Wasn't the Nashorn a reward for the Wehrmacht Flak 36? ???

Anyway:
1) Wehrmacht, because i find them to be the most flexible, especially at the beginning of the game. Plus they have some really nice late-game infantry.

2) Either Americans or Panzer Elite. I much prefer the Panzer Elite for the most part, but their veterancy system is so shit...

3) Brits, by far.
A. Their tech system (3 tech levels instead of 5, and without much room to move) makes them rather boring to play as.
B. Their vet system (needing officers around to be effective in combat) and their healing system (paying to heal around a small area) pretty much forces you to blob.
C. They are so fucking expensive! Seriously, why the fuck are they so expensive? As a defensive faction, they will be holding the least territory for the most part, which means less resources, so they should get cheaper units than the other factions!
D. They lack effective infantry anti-tank, but so do the Americans (non-doctrinally)...
E. Kangaroo Carrier...

Sorry for raging a bit about the Brits, but i can't help it whenever they come up...

Nope, it's a reward unit for PE FlaK 36. ;)

I can beat it with my endless Sticky spam

Anyway I use
1)PE- Cause this is my favorite and personally most efficient faction (till the Ostheer that is)

2)Americans- Rifle and Sherman Spam FTW

3)Soviets!!!!!!- Cause I'm a Soviet by blood and it is the best and most awesome faction ever made

2) Americans in 1v1, I like play with Airborne doctrine (Rifleman + dropped AT FTW!  ;D)

Panzer Elite too, I have big satisfaction winning with a UP faction.
And I love its units.  :D

3) I hate vanilla Brits with all myslef, lamer faction, designed only for players noob with other nations.
