Unlike the Ostheer Wehrmacht, the Oberkommando forces are aggressive and harassment oriented as their early forces are strong enough to rush territory points but generally have difficulty holding them. However, as a result of the worsening German economy, they cannot build caches on territory points and rely on salvaging wrecked vehicles and abandoned weapons to supplement their fuel income and with the right doctrine, munitions. As a faction, they have access to cutting-edge military innovations, such as STG 44 Infrared scopes and the Jagdtiger heavy tank destroyer as well as some older, early war technologies such as the MG34 and the Walking Stuka rocket half-track. The Oberkommando faction is intended to represent Germany's military situation near the end of the Second World War. Their tanks are generally considered superior to the Allied tanks, but they are fewer in numbers and often more expensive. Similar to their Eastern Front counterpart, this faction relies on a well-trained army of specialized units, with a few versatile units mixed in. It is paired with the Wehrmacht Ostheer against the allies. The Oberkommando West is the second Axis faction featured in Company of Heroes 2.
