Hey guys,

I am just absolutely stumped trying to beat us in 1v1's (automatch) Early stuarts and m8's/50.cal version are just wrecking my mg's too much while im trying to control rifle blobs.


any general strats against the us?

US vs. Ostheer is just considerably imbalanced at the moment. That said, there are a few strategic things that seem to work decently.
Among those are doctrines: Mobile Defense (for.. well pretty much everything, but above all the Puma) and Assault Support (for the Stug E) are both quite good against the USF.

A Tiger is also something that a USF player will have trouble dealing with, even with P-47 Rocket Spam (so long as you're careful about it and can avoid said rockets).

But maybe someone with more experience could say more.

I like to rush a 222 out, followed by a Puma or StuG E, supported by 3-4 grens and 2 MGs. Then i try to hold out for Panther and/sturmpanzer, or just spam P4s as the safer option I guess.
A mortar can also be good on the Major, or even a leFH.

Ok, so if you play ostheer vs usf.

Your only chance to resist early game vs rifle is 2 mg42s + 3 grens.

t-2 ready for counter stuart or M20, AA HT.

If M20, make a 222.

If stuart, make a pak40.

If AA ht, make a pak 40.

After wait stug e and tiger Kappa

Make LMG on grens and in some map like semois summer, make a HT, really good for renforce because the map is small.

Solid advice.

But, what if you don't have Mechanized Assault? Or you don't like it?

If you don't have mechanized, no stug e, but take a doc with the tiger, i think it's the best, it's like a little kt, very good vs usf.

You will like it because it help you to win Kappa.

If usf don't get a very good mapcontrol and don't pick ass engine doc for M10, the stug e is just Brutal Kappa.

Spearhead is another possibly commander. It has the all essential tiger and on some maps, or where the USF player is blobbing rifles (like 90% of players) or has a lot of weapon crews, the Mortar HT can come in very handy
