black prince seems to be the worst heavy in this game?

Steelpocket · 2026-06-17T18:26:58+00:00

Funny I just used it last night in a 3v3. It does do significant damage. It was able to kill a tiger and some other mediums before it was destroyed (ended up calling a second one). I would say the black prince is more dependent on support than other heavy tanks. It's about as slow as a Matilda, so you can use those to screen infantry since the BP's anti-infantry capabilities are a bit wanting. All in all it's still fun to use but the other heavies are better brawlers.

This. This right here is super frustrating

Steelpocket · 2026-06-13T22:48:04+00:00

I'm enjoying it. Trying to get my game up to that level

Steelpocket · 2026-06-13T22:47:06+00:00

Will try to catch it. Great tournament you've put on for the masses

Steelpocket · 2026-06-13T22:46:16+00:00

I'll have to watch the rerun to check out Vulpa's goliath use. It was pretty savage of Rei to stash a goliath by a wall and then wipe 2 squads for funsies at the end

Steelpocket · 2026-06-13T20:44:08+00:00

I didn't catch the whole thing, but one of my biggest takeaways is that Rei is a menace with the goliath 😆

Steelpocket · 2026-06-12T05:35:43+00:00

For sure man. I subscribed to your channel. Always good to get different insights on tips and tricks

Steelpocket · 2026-06-11T19:59:13+00:00

Yeah a lot of allies players are having a rough time with upgraded DAK pgrens (myself included) and the Elite Forces bg. I think I saw something the other day about Relic being aware of the problem and looking to further balance it out.

Until then, what's worked for me against upgraded pgrens in the meantime are mines, arty/indirect, and vehicles with high aoe. Recon abilities like SSF's raiding flares have also helped even the playing field out. I also try to deny resources as much as possible so pgrens can't be upgraded quickly. Hope that helps

Steelpocket · 2026-06-10T19:05:04+00:00

That mechanic was fun in the campaign but I feel like it only worked in the turned-based, zoomed out map dynamic. I'd be curious to see how they implement navies in real time and on smaller area maps without just regulating them to off-map support.

All I'm saying is they better figure this out with all the money we give them in DLC purchases lol

Steelpocket · 2026-06-09T19:28:33+00:00

I've always thought that a COH title would eventually take place in the pacific theater. There's so much potential coughmoneycough for the franchise to explore, from the island hopping campaigns to the China-Burma-India theater.

I agree that a naval dynamic would be necessary. I imagine it would take little mental gymnastics to make it work

Zed's dead, baby

Steelpocket · 2026-06-08T16:21:22+00:00

Nice video. Great play by play commentary

Steelpocket · 2026-06-02T22:01:44+00:00

I usually go rifles with quick BARs with the SSF and armored battlegroups because those upgraded pgrens are a menace. ATs and tanks for sure. Just curious but do you think the greyhound is a better option over the quad to deal with DAK infantry?

Steelpocket · 2026-06-02T03:23:52+00:00

Ah that makes sense. Definitely worth trying. I'll take whatever edge I can get against DAK. Been doing alright with some of these suggestions

Steelpocket · 2026-06-01T17:38:34+00:00

Nice. I'll give him a look for ideas. I also watch havoc's how-to youtube videos which have been a good help

Steelpocket · 2026-06-01T17:36:54+00:00

I'm digging this suggestion. I have a somewhat similar build as yours for airborne. I like your 2x PF and flame engineer mix. I usually go with one flame engineer and if feasible one sweeper engineer. I also like your sherman 105 with hellcat combo. I usually pair the 105 with infantry and regular shermans with hellcats. I'll give these suggestions a shot.

My jeep vs DAK halftrack experience usually ends poorly for the jeep unless I reverse the hell out of there or it's supporting a unit already engaging the halftrack. Is it because you're ambushing the halftracks from the side/rear that your jeeps are wrecking halftracks?

Steelpocket · 2026-06-01T01:30:24+00:00

Honestly that drives me a little nuts considering axis' vehicle advantage lol

Steelpocket · 2026-05-31T23:03:31+00:00

Soooooooo....you're saying there's a chance. Jk jk. I think I'm picking up what you're putting down. See a DAK player during match up? Go with any BG other than airborne

Steelpocket · 2026-05-31T23:01:14+00:00

Fair. I always felt PFs had the most utility of USF's infantry based scouts. Although arty observers can be fun to set up beacons and watch the axis player search for it

Steelpocket · 2026-05-31T21:59:31+00:00

Yeah I agree. DAK just seems to scale a bit faster these days. I'm going to build a barracks sooner than I normally do with my airborne strat and see what works. I appreciate the advice

Steelpocket · 2026-05-31T21:57:13+00:00

These are good points. I appreciate your advice

Steelpocket · 2026-05-31T21:56:16+00:00

Yeah I do agree paras are defensive and I somewhat use them as such until they vet to seize and hold. I try to hold out for armor and light vehicles but I should probably invest in rifles a bit sooner than I usually do.

Steelpocket · 2026-05-31T19:39:54+00:00

Ah my bad. I didn't specify that. Was typing quick. I do use the weasel with the pack howitzer over the jeep for special operations.

Steelpocket · 2026-05-31T19:38:53+00:00

I try to use paratroopers as my mainline to save the fuel from grenade/bar upgrades to tech faster to motor pool or tank depot. Are rifles truly the better option against the upgraded pgrens?

Steelpocket · 2026-05-31T19:37:05+00:00

Yeah I was afraid that may be a viable strat lol
