gg.This replay told me a lots about you.

I feel you are better at the beginning and then getting worse.

Overall,I think you can improve midgame.You should have made your units together when you faced Soviet's T-70(or M5).This is my conclusion and below is some pointing out and sugeestion.

First,3 doc combination is good though I don't know how to use Osttruppen personally.
But I feel your bulletins should be changed.Generally speaking,people use Grenadier almost 100%.Furthermore,they often use 3 or more squads.However,Panzergrenadier is not so much used.
So,I think bulletins about Grenadier are more effective than bulletins about Panzergrenadier.
You may think this is a little thing,but I believe Jesulin and many other top 10 players pile up these little improvement.Only 1% improve will become 10% when you do it ten times.(In fact it'll become a bit more than 10%)

Second,your tech up speed from T1 to T2 is good.and your upgrade to minesweeper is also a good timing.Your production of Pak40 is so smooth.These three things are one of the most important action when you fight against Soviet.

However,you defeated Soviet's T-70.That's because you divided your unit into two groups and you have only 1 Pak40.So,T-70 could attack the group which didn't have a Pak.All you can do is shooting panzerfaust,it means you lost your ammo and you couldn't make health bunker.
If you stuck together your unit(like Counter Strike),they could cover each other and might kill T-70 easier.

In this patch,fast T-70 and M5 is meta.Jesulin once deployed his M5 at 6:11 !!!
When you faced Soviet,2x Pak40 or fast Puma(Mobile defense doc) is recommended.In fact,fastest StugG is too late for fastest M5.

I also estimate a few more improvement,but there is not enough evidence so please give more replays!

COH 1 deflections did 50% of the intended damage, and if they would add this to COH 2, we would see walls of Soviet 45mm AT guns shooting everything down with their 40dmg on deflected shots
