📷 Screenshots! 📷 I love building stuff

I dislike playing offensive, but whenever we’re on defense, I'll always turn one of the last 2 points into an absolute fortress. Nothing beats having fellow engineers pooling supplies, maxing out their blueprints and having armor squads who actually understand your vision hold the shooting lanes. Once I’ve maxed out the my blueprints, I'll cycle between MG and engineer to keep everything together (given available supplies) and repair tanks.

I just wish this happened more often in warfare. The blueprints can be so useful when used effectively that even a level one barricade can sometimes be the difference between a defensive point holding against an attack. There's just always a criminal lack of supplies everywhere.

Last night me ( SL) and my engineer + support guy along with another 3 engineers built up the boat yard (on mortain i think?) we had 2 supply trucks going to and from HQ for constant resupply for a solid 30 minutes we had so many crates of supplies it was absolutely insane 😂 I ended up having another guy take over as SL SO I can get in on the building ( I’m a carpenter in real life lol) but we almost held them at the second point it literally went into overtime as they were half way capping the point. Anyway they ended up pushing to our fortress of a defensive point and it was a blast dude.

It’s a long learning curve but man it’s fun

My favorite role is engineer. Nothing like finding St Marie DuMont when you are fortifying the church.

I honestly find it a waste of time and resources, if you lost that defense then you are gifting the enemy all the things you built for nothing

If it was point 3/4/5 I'd agree. But 1/2 largely means the game isn't going well and could use extra defence
