Probably more useful if you have a Rommel commanding your troops in order to make the most of his skills. Why: To make good use of the rest of your division. When: If you're defending this is probably not as urgent as it is for the country that wants to blitzkrieg Europe.Įssentially artillery but more offensive-minded. Who: All the countries that want to give their armoured divisions an extra punch but can't afford self-propelled guns. However, full infantry divisions should probably use Artillery battalions instead of Companies. Why: Artillery has won the First World War and it's probably going to be very useful in the second as well. Mountaneers probably don't need this as they're not very likely to see too many vehicles. Who: Probably everybody with the exception of the US who should be able to field AT motorized battalions. Infantry should have som AT capabilities of its own, but will that be enough? Why: Sooner or later your divisions, of any kind, will face armoured opposition. So, countries like Italy or minors could find anti-air companies pretty handy. Who: I can't help thinking that this seems the poor man's substitute to a powerful airforce. In theory this should be useful for any division, especially infantry divs as armoured divs should probably use motorized AA battalions if they can be afforded. Why: Air battles will be integrated with land battles in HOI4 and it seems air superiority will play a pretty big role.

As we know from the Support Companies DD ( ) and the WWW videos ( ), Support Companies will play an interesting role in the game, but how exactly do you think they should be used? Which are the most useful? And when?
