The meme of allied air strikes being entire panzer division killers is a meme I hope Eugen will chuck into the trash, unlike CoH devs who actually believe it.Īlso the game takes place on the divisional level.
And Wirbelwinds and Ostwinds were operational in Normandy and although rare completely decimated Allied CAS IRL. Go look at allied CAS tank kill claims and compare them to actual unit losses. IRL allied CAS was about as effective firecrackers vs tanks. Ie yes tiger would 4-1 Sherman's, then be promptly bombed by planes incessantly and unopposed. Hence every dev says this to thier benefit but would make a boring game if it we literally true.
Be ready to have zero access to air support as Germans and get strafed/bombed by P47's P51's typhoon the moment you leave hiding places in bushes.the point is, claiming to be historical as a dev, if you do that to the most realistic degree the result of equal opponents in game should still mean an outcome similar to history.
