I didn't realize you can only have 1 LEIG and nothing else by the time they have all that. I don't even have close to A+ skills, maybe D+ at best.

Same way I have to counter MG42's as USF. Tons of luck and micro.

The only reliable early option for USF is Assault Engineers, or Flame thrower. Which are both locked to commanders. I really don't like the smoke+grenade combo. It's unreliable and loses usefulness the bigger teams games you go. You don't have smoke, but you have the infamous flame grenade. That right there is a game changer.

Fame grenade? You can't even come close to maxi spam. Have you faced 4-5 maxis?

Assault Engineers = Sturms

Assault Engineers are very similar to Sturms, and have high DPS. I flank an MG with multiple units and rush the AE up to it's face and try to shred it while walking around the building to avoid it's repositioning. Unfortunately, AE's are locked to a commander, while you can build sturms whenever you want

That's it for USF at t0, we have nothing else.

What Flank? Maxi spam covers everything. You can't flank anything when maxis are there.

Next Tier:

ISG's are probably the most valuable unit in the game. It's pure gold, and if an Ally player can steal it, it's GG. That weapon is absolutely insane, and you cannot underrate its usefulness. Right there you have a ridiculously good counter to MG's. USF equivalent would be the Pak, but range is much more valuable in this game, so the ISG is much better.

LEIG is fragile and can get owned by infantry. How can I protect them when I do even have mgs to protect my poor infantry units. Have those maxis come up and see how infantry+maxi shred apart leig because there are no mgs for okw.

OKW flak truck = USF AA half track

I sometimes use it to try and clear buildings. Unfortunately for me, I have to be a lot more careful to avoid heat seaking shrek blobs, and the MG42's anti vehicle rounds. You don't have to deal with either of those.

Soviet have AT guns in the same building. One AT gun can tear apart flak truck. So they just have to spam maxis and get one at gun.

After that MG's are a thing of the past when you have a Luchs, Puma, and Stuka.

Stuka costs 100 fuel and when maxi family is guarding fuel, you do not any fuel income. Luchs cost 65 fuel and gets engine damage by one soviet nade and gets easily countered by AT guns THAT SOVIET HAVE in the same building. Puma is AT.

It's a lot more difficult to deal with MG's as USF. The OKW have a much easier time, with MG's that are not as good as the MG42.

USF have smoke and if you don't use/like it, it does not mean smoke is bad.
