They are way to overpwered...there MGs have a farther range so do their AT guns they get way too much artillery from cheap vehicles...Their infantry is too cheap to build which leads to spamming..Seriously a halftrack can launch rockets? a hotchiss launches rockets? Nebs? Hummels? Allies get crap artillery except for creeping barrage. And most maps are too axis friendly. I've been looking for a hack to play with online to balance the game out.

They're weak in the beginning of the game. That's how you beat them. The only thing that's overpowered about them is that Stuka half tracks destroy bridges and buildings in like 1 shot, when Allies take at least over 9000 artillery strikes to destroy one (unless someone has off map artillery, but even that usually has to be used twice). If you let Axis players control the entire map and build up to critical mass, you've failed as playing Allies.

The Pak is way overpowered, it's supposed to have 3 camo shots and 1 with a bonus, with the unanimous community decision being that it should have 2 camo shots max. Being Relic, they bugged the Pak and now it gets 3 camo shots with 3 bonuses and completely negates all American vehicles.
All you can do is use riflemen, but then you run into PE and you don't have any strategies like pioneer spam that the Wehrmacht can abuse against the British, so your only chance is rush to M8, get mine detectors and hope you don't lose your M8's.

The game is ruined and will never be patched. If you bought the game recently you were tricked and you'll never get back your $40.

The game is not imbalanced. There's one or two n1ggling(can't say ♥♥♥♥ling?) problems, like all axis artillery destroying bridges in 1-2 shots, while allied artillery takes 5-6, but that's not a huge problem. Allies get demo charges, Axis don't.

Axis MGs only have further range at vet 2.
The Axis "halftrack dat shoots rawkets" is a VERY late game item. First you have to tech to Panzer Command, which is an end game tech option, then you have to build a half track and upgrade it with stuka rockets.
Stukas are honestly not too much of a problem unless you're blobbing.
If you're facing an enemy spamming Hotchkisses for their arty, your enemy is an idiot.
50(?) fuel for the hotchkiss, 150 munitions for the stuka itself...and the hotchkiss is useless, with far too weak armour.

Axis rely on Fuel to win. Take that away and you can crush 'em.

I can beat a Wermacht at a similar level to me about 75% of the time, but I consistently lose to PE players that are much lower level than me. I think Wermacht is fine, you just have to be extremely proactive early game.

Panzer Elite on the other hand has major balance problems... you have to win every conflict with them early game or you are dead, because a blob with group zeal is IMPOSSIBLE to beat.

There's no PE balance issues. Just because you can't beat them, doesn't make them imbalanced. What's to say Wehr is underbalanced since you beat them so often? I play brits mainly, the only issue i have with PE is the range of those damn Marder IIIs. They utterly ♥♥♥♥ my emplacements. You just have to starve them of their fuel. Without fuel, they're utterly useless. Their early game anti tank effectiveness is pretty bad, so use that against them. Late game, when they field their MIIIs, you better have good micro...

Noob thread of the week!

And yes in case you didn't know PE is slightly underpowered and the British are a little overpowered. This is a known issue documented several thousand times after the release of TOV.
