Flanking is good but:
+ 2 Sherk sturms on the rear.
+ 1 raketten camo camp on flank.
+ properly 1 Jadpz4 or pz4/panther stick with KT as vangaurd.
Not to mention 70 sight rank on a 375 armor heavy tank.
And the most stupid thing is heat shell litterly make your KT become the MBT so that it can 1vs2 M36 vet 2 at same time....

The mortar hell patches were so annoying. Back then their AoE damage was also big enough that they could oneshot wipe a fullhealth squad

How would it be shit at close range? It would be worse than Cavalry Rifleman but that wouldn't be the correct comparison since I said I want Thompsons instead of Bars on Regular Rifleman. They would be quite a bit better until about range 20. So I am giving up the long range of the bar for better short range which is where Rifleman should be fighting anyways while still maintaining the ability to snare.

EDIT: Just to clear up my thought process, the Thompson upgrade I am talking about would be unique to Rifle company(remove halftrack). Since the commander comes with mines, sandbags, flares and fire-up for Rifleman I
am proposing 2 Thompson since any more would probably make the commander OP, however 3 might be ok. Fire up would allow you to close the distance so the long distance damage of BAR would be irrelevant and Flares for attack/flank planning.

Directly comparing mainline infantry is useless. In context grens are probably the easiest mainline inf to use. But it's not like Rifles or Cons can't be used to great effect. And once your opponent knows what he's doing with Rifles and Cons LMG Grens suddenly feel a lot weaker. I would say in a game where both sides play sloppily (aka 99.9 percent of games played) LMG grens are superior cuz they don't require much decision making. Playing them is basically purely reactive. You attack move. If your opponent doesn't close in you just keep attack moving. If he does close in you retreat once he's close.

Playing Cons on the other hand requires clever stalling (spam sandbags at every opportunity) and maximum usage of utility like merge and trip wires.

Playing Rifles is even more difficult as they tend to bleed a lot. There's barely any player actively playing US who knows how to do clean and reliable rifle play (Inca probably being the only one coming close). This is because most top players neglect US and US specialists like Dave and DevM have left the game. Anyone who has been demolished by Dave should know Rifle's true potential in wrecking Grens imo. As of right now most high level US players seem to rely on knock out pushes that can be countered by appropriate reaction from the axis player.

Yeah no wonder Katukov pisses you off so much considering the last time you played Allies was 3 weeks ago on your playercard, had to go look it up on a proper site like coh2stats.com.
If Grens get snares for LVs to not rape them, why isn't that the case for IS?
I can hear some arbitrary arguments coming my way about them somehow needing that to stay balanced.

I'd appreciate it if you give a disclaimer that you're a axis fanboy yourself before you call Katukov a allied one
