Guide to Call of War Combat

Hello everyone, I just got an idea. How about the veterans in the game, or people who are quite experienced, write a general guide about the usage of units in the game, their combat preference, and counter units? I need feedback and also if somebody can write things down in Google Docs for each and every unit, their combat preference and counter units, also anything additional is appreciated.

I believe everybody has some problems regarding combat, so it should help. Below is a format for this guide.

(Unit, eg. Commando)

Health: __ in Allies, __ in Axis, __ in Pan Asian, __ in Comintern

Combat Preference: Light Armor, Unarmored (according to descending damage)

Counter Unit(s): (SP) Rocket Artillery, Tactical Bomber

Combat Usage: Attack enemy light armor like Armored Cars and Light Tanks, they can also deal quite decent damage to infantry and other unarmored units like motorized infantry, etc etc.

Remarks: Decent Multipurpose unit, etc etc.

Mate, there are plenty of resources on the forum to help you with this. Not to mention, everyone's gonna have different strategies and tactics they use. The most useful thread I think that will help is a thread originally made by someone else, but one that I expanded upon:

https://forum.callofwar.com/index.php?thread/42842-all-ground-units-1-5-guide/ <--- My thread

https://forum.callofwar.com/index.php?thread/37847-infantry-guide-1-5/ <--- Original thread (by vietcong)

These two might be a bit outdated, but the general concept should hold and are especially helpful for beginner players IMO.

Also, go check out the community guides page here, plenty of threads to read there:

BMFox also uploads CoW tutorials, tips and such on his YT channel, and altho I've never watched them, if they are as good as his old guides on the forum, then they are definitely worth checking out :thumbsup:

(There are prolly other CoW YTbers but they aren't as prevalent as him)

Plenty of resources for you and others with this same exact question to go thru. If you have any specific questions, don't hesitate to ask (unless its hospitals), either in a separate thread or right here ^^

For some reason I find some threads outdated

You want other people to write up all of that info on every unit for you? You should be able to do it yourself just by reading each unit's stats.
