29-y Tankovy korpus, I use it for 10v10 which is why I have it on juggernaut (for long games).

Hello commanders!

It’s time for a new Steel Division 2 update, this one coming for free in the very near future. In today’s DevBlog - and coming posts - we’ll be teasing the upcoming Reinforcement Pack #17 - War Reserves.

Reinforcement Pack #17 will bring a host of new and updated 3D models for existing Steel Division 2 units, across the base game and various expansions and Nemesis DLCs.

Hey guys! I am once again showing my deck to get some feedback. With this deck I am having my first successful online matches. I have won a bunch of matches but still lose mostly. I am having a hard time against heavier tanks and anti-tank weapons.

Against anti-tank I am trying to learn to use artillery and mortars in timely fashion, I still such at micro. However I really struggle to kill some medium and heavier tanks. It seems my own tanks and anti-tank guns are not doing a good job. I am also loosing a lot of tanks.

Any suggestions on improvement would be appreciated! Cheers!

As the title suggests: during a battle in an AG campaign, can I suggest to my allied AI in the battle to attack, defend, capture a point, etc? If there isn't a native way to do this, does anybody know of any mods that would allow this?

Thank you in advance for any and all helpful replies.

Hey guys, so I’ve gotten back into the game and I am looking to learn more. So far, I’ve been playing mostly Axis B-rated Divisions against the Hard AI, and I did do a single PvP game, which ended in a Minor Victory. I had a few questions for the community.

What are the different approaches to playing an A-rated division and a B-rated one?

I get the hang of B fairly well. My opening moves is that I create a stable, wide frontline with a huge amount of cheap units consisting of a wide variety of infantry, recon squads, MG units, AT guns, and a few half tracks or small AA guns. I forgo big tanks entirely in the opening. l use infantry to poke and prod at towns, green / yellow terrain, and place recons in sneaky spots. After that, I start to call in tanks (mostly light or medium) to support any part of the defensive line that was overwhelmed and call in progressively heavier units to mount a counter attack in late Phase A / Phase B with tanks, mortars, and air support.

But I feel like A type divisions are really hit or miss for me. I can’t really make that big, wide frontline in the same way and I feel like I can’t “dig in” the same way. I know A rated divisions are supposed to be offensive sledgehammers but I can’t really get the hand of the actually play style they are supposed to have. I’ve experimented and I’ve had games where my recon is so good I know the exact weak spots of the enemy line and where to send my tanks but I’ve had others where I go on the offensive and get melted. So how do you actually use A rated divisions to their strengths?

Follow up question, what is the counter play for someone that has an identical opener to my B division tactics?

I had a game where I was playing 3rd Fs against a Soviet player. Our opening strategies were almost the same, except he had a net of Su-85’s all over the place as opposed to infantry and AT guns. I eventually etched out a minor victory because I was able to effectively use my infantry and the Soviet player kept calling in more Su 85, and no artillery so I controlled all the forest objectives and his infantry couldn’t beat mine. Basically, we both dug in for our opening strategies. It was a long match though, how could I turn that into a decisive knock out blow?

Hi Community. Just got Steel Division 2 during the steam sale this week. I've been playing around and watching vids on "deck" compositions, and a couple of things confuse me.

Canadian division have Kangaroo rifles that can either have the Kangaroo as the transport or a RAM version. The RAM version looks like a straight upgrade as it has more machine guns (.50cal Vs .50&0.30cal). However, no one seems to choose the RAM or even discuss it. What am I missing (apart from there being limited RAMS)?

Secondly, people in deck vids seem to add supply trucks into support tab, even when supply truck can be brought in with arty and 17lbs. I would have thought choosing to put supply on the guns would free up activation points. I understand that it means you HAVE to bring in a supply truck with that gun even if you don't need it; but if there is an arty in B phase that I will definitely bring, but not in great numbers, I would have thought this would be a good synergy. Is there a downside I'm missing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi, are there any people willing to play vocals with me? 2v2 or 3v3 or 4 or 5v5 depending on the number of people interested I find the game much more fun when we play with several people by voice, here I am waiting for your answers

Which is the best axis division so far.Include dlc also

I recently bought the game and it works perfect , but when i try to go on multi it just shows no connection, in profile i cant click the nickname tab and i cant even see the chat button that should be there in the menu, a friend told me he had to make an eugene in his game, but i dont get any prompt when starting it up, how do i fix this?

Hello,

I'm looking to play SD2 AG Versus mod with people.

Newbie here. Have been itching to play a single player WW2 tactical game as the allied forces. Have been watching a lot of videos on the different options and the Steel Division franchise seems like the way to go. Would you recommend starting with the original (I saw there's at least a tutorial in that one) or jumping right into SD2 with the new Tribute to Normandy expansion?

I see there are nations other than Russia to play as, why are there no other nations' historical battles or army general campaigns?

I was thinking of picking both up while they are on sale but I was wondering how they compare mechanics wise to something like warno or war game, I’ve seen a lot of reviews saying that they are basically just ww2 war game but I am not sure how true that is. for example do they have similar tank and vehicle mechanics like panicking and how it affects movement and shooting?

I'm wondering what the major differences are between the two games, or if Steel Division 2 is a straight up (everything Steel Division 1 has but better and more).

Also wondering if one of the games is better for a single solo player?

Just picked SD2 up during the steam sale and I'm very overwhelmed by all the division options.

Does anyone have any recommendations that are more forward/vanguard deploy heavy? I usually like to take gains early with infantry then follow up with armor/mech support. I play WARNO and really like DDR 4th Motorized, so something similar would be great!

Have no real intention on playing competitive, just against AI/friends, so doesn't need to be a "meta" division. Bonus points for interesting/fun units or division history.

Am I the only one that thinks that SD1 battles feel better?
I think SD2 maps are too big (and repetitive) for 1vsAI and kinda slow

bought it yesterday and me and my friend wanna do breakthrough but cant figure out how to start it?

I just picked up SD2 with the DLC in the Steam sale and I need help to start playing, I'm new to Eugen games in general, and I am kinda rustt on RTS micro so I want help to start playing. The division that picked up my interest os Task Force 45 cuz it has my country on it (go Pracinhas go!), what playstyle do you recommend to go with it, deckbuilding, what should i focus on it, etc. Thanks in advance!

The new DLC is out along with the new balance patch.

I've skimmed through the patch notes and finally a lot of buffs for the Germans (and russians which is don't play alot 😁) The western allies didn't get changed alot.

The one i found interesting was the resilience buff for the stukas from 6 tot 9. Which is a 50% increase! Will they be viable again?

The mp-40 buff is also very welcome and needed!

Anyway i look forward to seeing the western allies hegemony destroyed, the time for the Axis has come again!

As the title says im stuck between both which is better? btw i saw a steam post saying "I bought SD44 AFTER having SD2 and got back to war DLC" is it still true?

Get ready for combat, commanders!

I'm really having a fun time playing AG and I wanted to buy more since the game is on sale? I bought Vistula since that has best reviews, what are some other AG DLCs that are good?

Just tired of hitting escape to skip through the opening cinematic. I tried searching through game files to find the intro and delete it but couldn't find it.

I'm a player that comes from games such as COH or C&C and typically adapt more of a play-style of "turtling". setting up a defensive front line and then advancing with hard hitting units. Typically think a leap frog strategy. I like to keep my range but hit as hard as i can usually picking up around late game. Any ideas? Ik this has been asked a ton but never noticed a question that fit a defensive style. I thought the 5th panzer, but I'm not sure

The time to deploy is almost near, commanders!

Nemesis #7 - Hell’s Highway and the free Reinforcement Pack 16 - Dukla Pass will launch next week, Tuesday, the 21st of January.

That’s not all: alongside the above, we will also release a major Steel Division 2 balance patch.

Keep reading to find out more!
