Is anyone even going to try and play USF or UKF?

Still struggling to imagine how USF is going to survive a M3 rush. No effective mines, no atnade before vet1, no Sturmpio that can deal good damage at close range.

Same applies to UKF, I was actually thinking we might need some good natures 'house rules' to allow for some deviation from just sov v sov.

WC51? UC with vickers?

M3 vs Brits LUL xD and soviet sniper^^. RIP Brits

WC51? UC with vickers?

WC51 is harmless before 5 minutes and you'll probably be investing in a M20 with skirt than 50mu on a WC51 at that time. Between UC and M3, I don't know maybe it is balanced.

Thinking about it, who wins on a matchup between M20 and M3...

I think i will try and test this a little, but a no M3 in the first few mins of the game rule might be best for entertainment's sake?

New Rule:

You cannot be same faction twice in a match, so use your super M3 Soviet game wisely
