Which faction is stronger?

OKW is most braindead faction to play with shocktroop early units, so OKW

[Major Ducks]

Overall Werhmacht is the better option, their hmg provide good coverage and supression, grenadiers are ok anti infantry, panzergrenaders are very good against vehicles, they have a sniper while okw does not, mortars and paks are good too.
flamehalftrack is a very good unit that excels in pushing back urban areas and team weapons,
the 222 is good overall too, stug3 is a cheap good AT option but less survivability than okw counterpart, same thing goes for p4z and panthers in terms of overall performance in giving okw's advantage.
Heavy tanks wise, okw tiger 2 performs better thank wehr tiger 1, although tiger 1 is faster.
between elephant tank and jadtiger both perform excellent in their fields.

Wehrmacht has a much bigger pool of commanders than okw and features much more units and airstrikes.

Soo in the end I would go for wehrmacht as it offers more tools to counter and play the game

Wehrmacht. Has better unit roster and lots of commanders with good abilities.

OKW. If you're even fairly decent. You should be able to steamroll 75% of ally players.

I agree that it can be braindead. It was way too EZ mode and their strats are basically the same every round, so they're easy to get bored of

I'd go with OKW. Wehr is the more flexible faction with much better support weapons, but in the current build I find its armor options to be pretty lackluster. I'd say you need to be a better player to get the most out of Wehr.

OKW has good infantry and excellent armor options. The early game can be a bit dull, because there's only 1-2 builds that are viable. But it makes up for it in the late game, with its access to all kinds of fun gonzo units (Jagtiger, Walking Stuka, King Tiger, Flame Hetzer, Sturmtiger, etc...).

OKW is easier and more forgiving if you're new to the game because their tech tree is simpler and their core units are the best in the game, they really only struggle mid game but even then not that much. They probably have the most straight forward and simple tech tree with the possible exception of UKF in the game but I think Wehrmacht is the more powerful and dynamic faction over all.

When all else fails just remember. There's a reason most players pick Axis ;)

So as long as you're nazi; you're doing something right.

the reason most players pick axis is that wehraboos exist.

Since the last patch (patch before this one), I'm seeing pretty consistent equal percentages when searching matches. I pay attention to this because I generally see what side has the lower number and choose that side. When I play (CST), it's pretty consistently more Allies on the weeknights, but more Axis on the weekends. But really not that lopsided either way, compared to what I've seen in CoH in the past.

+1 and depending on the time percentages shifts. For me: if i'm playing early in the morning i play axis due to allied player pop, vice versa for rest of the day.
