As of right now, it can't go head-to-head against OKW; British are actually UP as you will see when you play them. The emplacements are the key to this faction (in my opinion). Any other tactic I tried using ended in a complete loss but just seeing that bofurs chew up infantry was worth it. The anti-tank emplacement can take out many light vehicles w/ one shot! Would have loved to have seen more content given to current races along with this nickel+dime piece but not everyone can be like cdproject red! Hopefully, with mods, it balances out with current roster. I don't know if it's just me but the A.I for Brits is actually extremely good and setup emplacements strategically.
    Would not pay more than $10 for this one race. Wait for steam sale unless relic adds more content to all existing forces.    … Full Review »

    The Brittish forces have ruined the entire multplayer experice. Forums are full of disscusions and it has split up the community. Im going to be honest. I liked the british forces at first. I won everything and as a hardcore player I saw the strenghts of the british forces. Until I noticed 1 thing. The OKW and the Whermacht are both in teamgames not able to counter them. The british are just too **** good. I have 500+ hours in Coh2 , sc2 , ruse and wargame. Though I ve never seen such an unbalaced faction. It forces the whermacht to play a certain type of game or they will lose. And don't try to convince me that the OKW has even a chance. The axis can only win if the enemy team is bad. The OKW is now compleetly USELESS. I hate this update I can only play allies now if I want an eazy win. And stats let us see that the british are the most dominant team players. In 1v1 they suck. But in 2v2 and above they are gods. Man do I hate them I cant play this game anymore the axis only win with luck and people call you a noob if you tell them that the british are op. Lets pjust look at the stats shall we. First of all the british have great stats comparable to the OKW but even better in cover. And as more of these fight play out behind cover (as the axis are mostly long ranged) the brittish have a minor adavtage cost /strenght compared. The OKW can outclass these with Obersoldaten but that's much later on. Second thing is that the bunkers of the brittish are nearly invunable tip use fire grenades. It is the only counter the only one as tanks can be quickly delth with. Still then the brits are dug in you lose. Deal with it. Mortars blow up al you inf tanks are useless art is outclassed and that is why I say Nerf or Remove.

    0/10 worst modern rts because of a **** faction and no there is no counter just look up a wiki for their stat they are just blately stronger thank you now stop playing brittan.    … Full Review »
