Returning COH3 Player - Wehrmacht / DAK Guidance

Hi all,

I'm a returning player to the franchise and like other posts recently, ive been pretty happy with how the game plays a year or so after release when it was pretty shaky start.

I've usually always played axis because i like their armor, but I researched some faction tiering and it seems like the consensus is that Alllies (British / US) are much better the higher you go and have a lot more flexibility.

Just curious if this is still consensus now with current patch or if this is old logic from the game upon release?

Any tips for DAK players, I seem to not be able to get to panzer command and lose to infantry mass
