Maybe this could be in an AAR, but i feel too many people are just blaming German losses on the VEPR and uniforms too much.

The reason Germany lost that round by so much wasnt just the VEPR or the uniforms (though that did have some impact of course). The 4 biggest things that hurt the germans were 1) Ukraine had a good commander, 2) Germany didnt have a commander, 3) Way too many german squads bunching up, hugging eachother for warmth, and 4) lemming rushes. And this seems to happen to MOST german teams in this map, for whatever reason.

In that map you cannot bunch up at all. Aculles screenshot is the way every squad should be spread out. Near the end of the round i snuck up on a squad near the launch site and they were all within about 5 meters of eachother, not moving. Those were the most and some of the easiest headshot kills ive ever gotten in such a short span of time. If they had been spread out, i might have gotten one of them at the most.

Another thing you cannot do is lemming rushes. Youve got to move up smart and cover eachother. Every ten yards, hit the ground and hide behind a tree or a fallen tree stump. You also have to use that cover well. Take a few pot shots, and once you see the very first bullet hitting your stump, inch over to where they dont have a shot. If your squad was spread out, the guy that was firing at your stump is likely dead.

As far as strategically, too many people go after the wrong flags. If you are German, take BOTH of the flank flags. If you get both of those and keep a squad on each, everything will collapse for the Ukraines. If you are Ukraine, hold the flank flags (which people always seem to do), hold the bunkers, and with everyone else hold the hills around the launch site. If you have the hills, you probably have the flag as well. Too many German teams just push straight up the middle, right through every gauntlet they could possibly run into.
