So not only does it give me a bead on where my opponents are mustering, it also lays the groundwork for a strong early economy. It's a lot more nimble than the American jeep, and unlike most vehicles it can capture territory. Tough armoured vehicles and lots of explosions-what more do I need?Īs much as I'm keen to cause some damage with my tanks, it's my speedy recon bike that becomes my first MVP candidate. Tough armoured vehicles and lots of explosions-what more do I need?
I wouldn't say I'm confident, but this tank and artillery-loving battlegroup feels made for me. I'm backed up by a developer, but also facing another developer and their AI ally. With one loss under my belt, I mix things up a bit for Battle #2, picking the German Breakthrough battlegroup. My enemy takes pity and puts me out of my misery. I wish I could do the same, but my economy is in shambles. And as I focus on funnelling more troops into what is quickly becoming a graveyard built just for my men, the AI is getting beefier and beefier, plonking down new buildings and bringing its more powerful units into the fray. The paratroopers make a valiant attempt to avenge my recon jeep and the poor lads who were hiding behind that former wall, but sadly they don't survive for much longer. The plane itself gets blown to smithereens, the wreckage falling right next to my base, but all the troops make it out in time. I've already unlocked the paratrooper ability, and this helps me to speed up reinforcements after the earlier devastation by just chucking some new lads out of a plane. They aren't mutually exclusive, however, so I can enjoy the benefits of both. My unlockable abilities are split into two trees, one focused on planes, and one focused on dropping shit out of planes. Its counterpart is the German Breakthrough battlegroup, which is all about heavy armour and artillery support-perfect for a bit of shock and awe. One of its most helpful units is a recovery vehicle that's able to grab wrecked vehicles from any faction, fixing them up and letting you commandeer them.
Then there's the USF Armored battlegroup, which gives you lots of mechanised options and is deft at playing a support role.
On the German side, there's the Luftwaffe, which is comparable but with some unique tricks that make it very hard to move once their battlegroup entrenched. The USF Airborne battlegroup, naturally, gets a lot of assistance from above, whether that's paratroopers, bombing runs or recon. Company of Heroes 3 is a game where a few explosions can change everything.
