Dat commander picture looks like a caricature...

A lot of people have an image of how they want a faction to play, leading to problems. This is why you have people complaining about lack of Soviet bunkers, why T34/76 sucks, why Cons don't scale, Grens don't get normal grenades, Muricans don't get heavy tank, OKW laser weapons and Die Glock Death Bell, etc.

Honestly this is a pretty good doctrine that I think is well balanced and fits the faction. For Panzerjaegers, you could simply use the panzergren models and voice but have them come equipped with said AT rifles

I bought vCoH on January 3rd, 2007.
Still missing the days of vCoH 1.71. It had it's issues, like paks sniping 57s, and the strafe didn't work, but overall, it was probably the most balanced time in CoH history.

OF ruined that. CoH 2 is....balanced in a nasty way. Everyone has an equal stockpile of gamebreaking bullshit. USA is full of early game BS while the OKW doesn't get its BS until late game. It's just a question of how badly you exploit the faction's shit and how quickly, after a patch, you discover the gaping holes of bullshit Relic leaves. But either way, it's all BS. The only "BS" in vCoH that was gamechanging was the fast m8 vs a bunker.

Panzerjaegers, if come with 2 Panzershrecks, should be no bigger than a two-man squad. It should not in any way be able to perform any sort of Anti-Infantry duties. OKW already has a very very high number of potent anti-infantry options (Volks, AA HT, Luchs) that arrive pretty early.

Allied Vehicle Armour would also need to be increased in order to prevent vehicles being invalidated. Shrecks acted as vehicle snipers and are 100% more effective in the AT role than PIATs (most useless) or Bazookas.

A two-man squad would not be viable at all, since it would get insta-wiped way too easily by all sorts of explosives or dual snipers. I don't see the problem with a 340MP four-man squad getting two Schrecks at all - Ostheer already has that with PGrens, and please don't tell me you think those are OP.
