I posted 1 in the replay.

My rank before going on the losing streak was low 400 dropped to 600 I think.
1v1
Langreska was the worst abuse due to the Mid VP giving so much territory to place bunker if needed.
I played Soviet but in general USF would have the same problem.

What is up with the recent Mechanized assault use/abuse?

Last few games have been against Mech Assault, decide to go with engi opening into clown car. I see his MG is out of position so I push my Engi and follow up with scout car to force retreat. He now Pushes with 2 MG, which I repel, and see AssGren, here we go again. I am playing better than him but he keeps pressuring me. I get Penal SMG in car push 1 mg lose car but get wipe and steal MG.

Now is when the BS really hits, he is able to call in PGren+car WITHOUT having to tech up. He rushes my gas and cutoff and starts to push me back, PTRS penal damages his car but since it is dugin it takes less damage. I had my MG set up in good position and SMG penal get the kill so he is forced back again. My T70 finally comes out and I push him hard and start killing most of his units since he doesn't Have snare. I am trying to cap as much as possible to catch up in gas since he is building T3. I get lots of models but no wipes and forced back due to shreks.

I catch him out of position again with SMG and able to Kill another MG, engi and several other units when he finally quits.


I felt I was way better but the strat allows him to make up skill with cheese.

I would disagree. Su76 should get 160 damage with vet. It would not make ost t3 usseles in the slightest. Durability would be the drawback for su t3. Su players would still go t4 because of how flimsy the su 76 t70 and m5 are. Its just not sustainable to stay in the lv stage in the end game (Ost also is usualy not behind in the armour game as keeping their panzers alive is easier)
It would reward su players for keeping the su76 alive and vetted. Su76 would still struggle vs ost t4 or okw panzer 4 and panthers tigers kt etc.

My bad, thought it meant base 160 damage, 160 with Vet would be great.

Did they revert the 5 men back to 6? Making it 4 men is overkill it would need a buff to damage and or rof then.
Also its quite a bit more expensive, has a longer reload and bigger scatter area so at max range to my knowlidge it isent more accurate.
Its better traits are longer range and better aoe profile.

Imo the unit is fine.

It is still 5 men.
I agree the unit is fine, works best with sight, the barrage is long due to reload and not very accurate however once you get the delayed fuse it becomes great against buildings. Truthfully I feel it hits better than the pak howi but not as much utility.

Played this guy yesterday, assumed he was going to go ostruppen again. Went with Airborne this time to stress his micro.

Started with engi/penal/car. Capped as much as I could before fighting started. Put my 2 engi against his 2 Ostruppen, knew I would lose was just stalling for car to arrive so I could bleed him good. Eventually pushed him back and then decapped his cutoff and gas, we are pretty even map wise which is bad for him since part of the reason for going Ostruppen is early map control.

My car is still alive so I decide to screw with him, SMG clown car catches him off guard a couple times so I really start to control map along with Dshka. I know he is going to go STUG E so I skip LV which leaves me AT poor but no big deal since it gonna be a bit. I continue to punish his units with superior units like the SMG penal and LMG Airborne, I focus on wipes instead of flags to try and slow down his tech and reinforcements. Will also help late game when they get harder to kill.

I catch his MG and ostruppen with SMG car, he gets his snare off but I jumped out and killed his MG before he could retreat. Also got his AT gun with another unit, try to blow up the abandoned MG but get my car in the blast. LOL. His STUG E make an appearance and kills stolen AT so I rush with another unit to decrew and AT satchel it and destroy it.

Game is now heavily in my favor and T34 is on the way. I think he got tired of his infantry getting bullied so he made a PGren, which gets wiped by SMG penal when a lot is going on.

I eventually rush his Vet3 Stug E and get the kill along with destroying another AT gun but bad timing, Panther is out and looking for payback he kills all 3 as they run away due to his mines and snares. I am not to worried since I have another tank on the way and he has lost several units that he needs to replace.

From here on out I am pretty much building my armor up while I dictate the fight due to Panther poor AI. For some reason he makes more STUG E which don't really do much for him. I kill his army and infantry little by little and get the W.

I feel a big weakness of ostruppen spammers is the amount of micro required later in the game if they don't add harder hitting infantry like PGren.
MY SMG penal picked up Ostruppen LMG, does any one konw if it keeps Ostruppen stats or gets base LMG stats?
