Company of Heroes 3: Fire & Steel Review (The Unbound)

Recommended? Yes!
Fun? Yes
Overpowered? No.
A new battlegroup for each faction with very fresh and fun abilities that modify how you play and of course, a heavy tank for everyone. I was a little worried that the heavies would be OP but I've tried each one and they're tough and imposing but can still be destroyed using good tactics. I have taken down heavies just with anti tank guns and tricking enemies into exposing the weak spots. So they aren't overly powerful and do not skew the game.
Each battlegroup does add good flavour and is worth it although I was hoping for slightly more interesting defensive capability for the DAK but its still enjoyable (the faction is not meant to be a defensive one anyway). I will still be making good use of Italian Coastal, Luftwaffe, Indian Artillery, Australian, Airborne etc as they're still powerful battlegroups even when going up against the new heavies. But will make good use of the new ones.
Aside from this dlc, there was also a large patch and further hotfix released that gave a bunch of changes and tweaks and there's a roadmap for more updates and inclusion of maps. They've covered 1 vs 1 maps and plan to go through phasing in new ones for each size.
I highly recommend this.
