Fighting Shocks with the Ostheer involves quite a big amount of micron imo.

Most important rule to fight them is to keep your guys as far away from them as possible (no shit sherlock, I know)and always retreat early enough! even if that means to retreat a full health squad.

I have a few ways to deal with them;

Having two grensquads that have some space in between them. So while he closes in on one you fire at him with the other. You won't wipe them but he'll lose entities and you won't if you pull your grens back in time.

A sniper might work on some maps but is extremely attention and micro intensive.

Mg42 play works pretty good. Always reposition your mg once his shocks are suppressed. While they're suppressed, shoot them with whatever you have, flamers work very well and so do riflenades.

Sdkfz. 222, can work but be aware of cons shielding his shocks and don't go to close ore they'll shred your car.

If you actually wan't to wipe them you'll need something with tracks and even then they'll probably get away due to having 6 men.

Fighting them is a pain as OH and you'll sure need some luck too if you wan't to wipe them.

I see absolutely no problem with rifle nades. There is a very distinctive throwing animation followed by that "cling" sound and the target squad yelling "granata". Seriously, that's all you need to dodge.

Well....

The it does more or less the same damage to tanks, but on top of that it also reliably wrecks AT guns and does a good deal of damage to infantry. Driving your tanks out of range does not make the ability harmless unlike P47 strafes.

Erhm I'm not sure if that's true. In my experience the p47 attacks vehicles all over the map.

The effective area of these strafes should be smaller and the duration should be lowered, maybe for a small price reduction.

Anyway, if we see a less ISU meta, i expect to even see less this unit which is good.

Absolutely.

I generally don't like those ultraexpensive überunits.
I'd rather have units that are indeed pricy and perform very well, but not like "cheatmode"-well.

I know that Switzerland was weak in WW2 and that they relied on old WW1 technology and equipment to outfit the Switzerland Army. There's simply no possibility of Switzerland being added to CoH2 whether as a new Army or as a commander; they're in the same boat as Sudan, Italy and Mexico was during WW2- they had absolutely nothing worthwhile and their troops were horrible.

Also, it doesn't really matter if Switzerland is on the map or not in that video. Switzerland literally was non existent in the war and thus can be considered part of Germany.

I begin to see a pattern here, obviously the canadian ministry of education is to blame.
