British Forces
Overview
Platoon Command Post options.
This is basically a light tank that can engage medium tanks with its 75mm cannon, and its only 65 fuel. It is weak to tank destroyers and AT so watch out.
Bofors QF 40mm emplacement
This is pretty much the shadow of the Flak 88mm that the wehrmacht used. It is effective against infantry and can engage light vehicles and light tanks. Its good for defending VPS and the like.
Company Command Post options
You wont need this as you will almost ALWAYS need Anvil specialization, but if you want to be aggressive, this is for you.
Anvil specialization
You will need this 90% of the time as the Churchill is needed to combat the heavier armor of the Axis. The artillery flares help a lot too.
FOB
Infantry & Support Weapons
These are you basic infantry and they can plop fuel caches and build a trench, they need cover so position them behind cover like sandbags and trenches.
Vickers Heavy Machine Gun
This is the BEST mg for TWO main reasons.
- Has very good range
- Can outrange even a SNIPER at vet 1, this can get rid of the pesky little ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ snipers shooting your royal engies trying to build a bofors.
British Medics
I personally dont get these. If you want to get them but I highly recommend not wasting your manpower on these.
Universal Carrier
Im putting this here because the carrier is too lightly armored to be considered a light vehicle. I only make these for Early-Mid game mobile flamethrowers.
Royal Engineers
These dudes cant build caches BUT they can build emplacements such as mortar pits and bofors. They can also build FAs.
.55 cal sniper
This is a sniper that can kill infantry and can ALSO engage vehicles, which is nice.
6 pounder AT gun
Second best AT gun as this thing is accurate and quite powerful.
Vehicles
AEC 75mm car
Ehh I would get this if you dont really need Bofors.
Centaur AA tank
I dont get this mainly its quite expensive for a AA and anti infantry role.
Cromwell Medium Tank
This should be your main Tank until you get Churchills.
Sherman Firefly
You will NEED to get these and start spamming this when the Axis starts pulling out Panthers and Kongstigers. These are weak to infantry so escort them with Infantry, Cromwells, Comets, or Churchills.
Comet Medium Tank
I usually dont use Anvil specialization but these ARE the British version of Panthers so if you want to get it, go ahead.
Churchills
These are British KV-1s that can throw grenades and is heavily armored, get these.
Emplacements
3 inch mortar emplacement
Stationary Artillery, but has TWO mortars. A must have.
AT emplacement
Use these to guard VPs and the like. Otherwise, nothhing else.
Bofors 40mm AA emplacement.
GET THESE, this will have your nest 75% MORE PROTECTED then using MGs, they can garrison infantry and get BOOSTS. This was so OP when it came out that Relic had to NERF IT. Get it, you will not regret it.
