I finished my first match and what a blast it was. I enjoy the Campaign Series and the club is great. A minor observation. When I played the old version Talonsoft East Front version.....trucks were just given one point per strength point. I hated that because players would block roads and LOS with trucks and you could kill them all day and get few points. Now I see trucks cost more and happy about that.
It seems some point allocation is not well thought. Superior German units are given the same point allocation as the Russians in my early experience. A T34/85 strength point is the same as the Panther PZV. The Panther is better with greater armor (13) and a harder hitting gun. Not only this but according to production results, 22,500 T34/85's were produced compared to 6,557 Panthers. That is a huge disparity and should be taken into account in the point system. A Panther is not only a better tank, but much more difficult to produce and not as numerous. I feel Panther should cost more per strength point but they are equal.

Another example is the German MG platoon. The MG 42 platoon is much superior to the Russian MG platoon. Yet the game allocates the same strength points to both units. Again, the Germans have superior weapons but fewer production capabilities. So obviously a German MG platoon should be at least one point more per strength point then the Russian counterparts just due to the limited number available making them more precious.
You could go down the list and find units that are over priced or under priced in strength points if you want to split hairs I understand.
I could be wrong and its just a rant but the game does not seem to account for units produced so German units benefit in being superior and equivalent in points to inferior Russian units. Just my opinion. Any thoughts?
