german atomic age combo

[Gangstaville]

I just switched to German from British. Just wondering what troop combo the German players have been running with. Currently, I'm using 4 apc, 5 howi, 2 TH and the rest rifleman.

Try these two:
3 APC, 50 Rifleman, 5 Howitser, 2 Tactical Helicopters
Include a transport and as many fighters as you can (probably 2, yeah?)

and for silo bases, 1 Heavy Tank, 2 APC, 47 Riflemen, 4 Howitsers, and 2 THs.

For war, integrating high level bazookas is very effective as German. They actually work well all the time, but the cost of losses is more daunting in MP, and times don't matter as much.

German or not, that combo is pretty much ''standard' across the different nations, especially the Brits, which you just switched from.
You can keep using it and benefit from the Fury bonus or you can use a HT army I've seen used a lot with German nations. A HT with Fury is like a Tiger mixed with a lion crossed with a gorilla on steroids!

Usually the only 5* my base gets are from German HT armies. It is something I am working towards. My HT are only mk3 at the moment. Never really used them much, so I got some catching up to do in that area.

For casual raiding go for 6 HT. just make sure to attack base with low level air defense. so your planes wont die by killing anti tanks.
it will keep you raiding for hours without losing a single troops.

for War. it will depend on the base layout,

you can go 4 apc 5 howies and the rest archers or just add a TH.
you can also try doing 13 zookas or more or lesss it really depends on the base layout. Try watchin videos of StabMasta, that dude is one hell of a german nation player. he switches army composition depending on the base layout, he also explain why he switch, so you can also learn on when to use such composition.

... like a Tiger mixed with a lion crossed with a gorilla on steroids!

I'm trying really hard to imagine that, my imagination is failing me. Does it look something like this?

 

[Manifesto]

Maybe, if he had a tail.

No Title

 

[Manifesto]

LOL
Nice to see I inspire some people! But where's the stripes?

 

[melheor]

You can't see them because they're black.

Is the APC a game changer in atomic?

 

[No Angel]

Lmfao how can I miss this thing!!!
I'm seeing stripes on its butt.

 

[oddin]

no but it is among the most interesting units you will get. The game changer in atomic, Imho, is the Tank Destroyer and the Helis.

 

[Manifesto]

Second this. Especially after the recent 'rebalances'.

 

[pckrn]

id say apc is the game changer for atomic. for any composition other than all-ht, apc will boost your strength greatly whether you use howies or helis, rifles or machine guns or bazookas; you need apcs. also actually ‘changes’ the game by making tanks obsolete as tankers
