After playing several more games as and versus OKW I must say the LeIG is still powerful. Not like before but I feel you get too much for cost. It still suppresses and pretty frequently instapins. The "micro tax" so many people mentioned isn't really a factor, even on my level of play, which is nothing to write home about.
Maybe it is not overpowered. Maybe it's a different problem, one of playstyle. In my opinion, it is unfair that a single unit dictates how to play with and against a faction, which is what 1v1s come down to. That is supposed to be a support gun, and instead we have the entire faction supporting the LeIGs which pick a chunk of the map to "support", i.e. cause consistent, reliable manpower bleed and pins every several seconds.
Ostheer revolves around the MG42 support, and it is executed masterfully in-game. There is so much you can do to counterplay an MG42 (smoke and flank, anyone? ) . Not much you can do versus a LeIG except abandon a part of the map or make a direct attack on it, which OKW players of course have learned to expect and turn to their advantage.
Imba or not, LeIG is still a crutch that prevents the rest of the faction from being evaluated fairly and maybe even buffed, it's the same issue with Rifle Company. Remove Rifle Company for two weeks and you would see 1v1 win rate for USF plummet.
