Imo tommies should be 4 men squad price of 260.

if we add 100 maps to automatch, won't we get like 30 vetos? what's there to lose with that logic.

The thing about Tommies is that they don't really operate at an 'optimal' range. It's all about cover for them. A squad of tommies is nearly as effective at close range as they are at long range, both in and out of cover.

So while every other faction's infantry are maneuvering to get to their optimal range, (typically 'point blank' or 'max range/A-move'.) all Tommies can/have to do is be in cover. They operate under different mechanisms than everyone else.

Early game, a tommie squad in cover really can't be dislodged without support weapons (ost) or overwhelming force (okw). Caught out of position, though, they're as ineffective as shock troopers outside point blank range.

I think this is not true anymore. We've seen many good players just not building the HMG42 early game and still being really effective.
All allied early game have been nerfed in different ways lately bringing more diversity. Mobile defense not being anymore a panic button shows how Ostheer compete really well early game.
Watch GCS2 Quali 1 Round 1: CreativeName vs Refero G2, Not building HMG42 and still a solid early game for the Ostheer player who will win the game.
