Festung Support Doctrine | The Third Reich - Command Company of Heroes 2 Guide

This tactic Works well with multiplayer games

Another typically defensive tactic. It boils down to using artillery. Probably the most effective in multiplayer.

2CP - SdKfz 250/7 Mortar Half-track

A self-propelled mortar. Not as powerful as the stationary ones but, with good management and rapid movement, it can be considered a decent support in every battle.

2CP - Smoke Bombs

Clouds of smoke from the planes. Bigger and more effective than smoke grenades or Panzer Tactician. The general rule remains unchanged. It covers your units and makes it possible to launch a surprise attack or, cover retreat.

3CP - Relief Infantry

Reserve "Ostrupen" infantry. Definitely weaker than the regular German infantry but, very cheap and produced on a mass scale.

4CP - leFH 18 Artillery

Constitutes a response to the Soviet ML-20 gun-howitzer. Discernibly weaker and not that precise. Still, if properly secured, it will wreak havoc in the enemy lines.

6CP - Sector Artillery

Artillery attack on a specific sector with 105mm projectiles. Best to prevent a territory from falling into enemy hands.
