Hi strategist !!!

I'm a 2v2 Ostheer player. Me and my mate have dificulties at mid-late game when facing Russian infantry Spam.

I mean. 8 Conscript squads with PPSH + 3-4 shock troops (sometimes guards).
By that time we have 2 mg's + 5 grens with LMG + 4 Pgrens (2 of them will be probably upgraded with shreks to counter enemy armor)

My problem comes when, I feel overwhelmed by that hordes, I can only be in a deffensive position trying to deny the attack and capping when the enemy is reinforcing at base.

Ostwind flakpanzer helps me a lot, and the best counter I could find is the 120 munitions strafing run airplane that suppress everything. The problem is that I am very dependant on ammo and my ostwind, and a single AT nade + a suicidal T34 will kill my tank, making me vulnerable to hordes again. For deffending the ostwind, PAK has a trouble because of the infantry hordes and upgrading to shreks makes me more vulnerable against that spam.

I have tried to build more grens + Pgrenadiers than the enemy but here is when the shocktroops come to unbalance that numbers (I'm not blaming that that unit).

I'd like to know how can I face it and if you can post a replay in where I can see how to play against that strategy, that'd be great.

I'd prefer a single unit on russian sniper or at least, if the russian spotter dies, the sniper can't shoot and you are forced to retreat to base.

VGG. Highlighted!

Can someone tell me if these finals are broadcasted somewhere?

I would really appreciate it if you give me the link.

Thanks.

I really like the function of the sniper in coh2, but I would like to see a really cheap detector unit such as the bike & jeep (from vcoh) implemented to force players to micro their snipers well. At the moment there is no real way to counter snipers, scout cars require to much of a fuel investment to be a worthwhile counter.

Not to mention that Scout car HP is very low and its damage against snipers is poor.

That would be great if Relic increase MP cost of scout car and increase the damage against snipers in order to be able to kill them with 2-3 burst from far distance. that would make snipers retreat.

Atm when playing with russian snipers, I'm not worried by the presence of a Scout car. by the time the car is approaching to me, I stay in yellow cover (receiving damage) but before I can feel a real damage, my conscripts have already killed the SC with a single AT nade + a couple of shots. I'm doing this because of the lack of early guard troops, but conscripts + at nades work great deffending snipers.

Please @Relic, hire Janne to your team and let the game become amazing !!!!
