I really like using sprint (that is now given from doctrines with infantry cammo in), try to partially have a flank on the vehicle as much as possible, wait for him to be a tiny bit out of position and sprint a gren squad into faust range, I also use the +7% faust range bulletin to aid this further. From there you will probably need to move other grens in to do more fausts, its a real waste if he is allowed to slink off to repair.
Make sure you conserve probably all you munis early if you want to do this so you can do 3 fausts and a sprint.
Try to time it well, make sure you can deal a knock out blow, he wont expect it coming from your inf in such an aggresive way.
Later, you can do similar also using sprint to bring Shrek PGs into killing range or a crippled vehicle. |
Westwall map base hmg bug
Base HMGs (at least Soviet ones) attack squads in garrison nearby cut-off as well as the cut-off itself

Is that such a bad thing? After all how many maps have a building you can camp right outside the enemy's base like that. Its hardly an advantage to the right hand player. |
I think it also heavily depends on the map and the enemys army compositions, heavies can be quite situational.
For example a Tiger can be pretty useless if they have several ATG which you cant easily take out as a Tiger is difficult to reposition and also pull back when in the Paks range. 2 mediums may be able to cause better damage by hitting their flanks. |
One thing, Ost is probably the hardest to play, they can be great, but take more effort to achieve.
COH2 is generally a bit more spammy in terms of inf assaults than COH1, which can make it difficult as Ost to keep your units alive. |
But what if they want to spam 2 panthers out simultaneously, you didnt think of that  |
I often build T4 to get enough CPs for a Tiger, then maybe build a Pwerfer after, but thats not multiple of same tier.

no need to go as far as late game. play as usf and you get fucked by 4 kubelwagens in early game. RIP
Use the mechanised Doc, you can bully the hell out of OKW, rape Kubels with Dodge, kill blobs with demo from the assault engie and level their trucks with the powerful off map arty. |
I think the unit you are looking for is the land mattress  |
In practise G43 is really quite powerful, it allows you to have good firepower on the move, which means you can be more aggresive (yes you still have to be careful with 4 man squads), but you can push and take out positions. It really helps when 2 g43 squads are together, you start to have enough DPS to get wipes.
LMG can be countered by mortars and grenades, you will have to reposition, then you lose firepower and lose the firefight. You can also drop them which is a big thing in G43 favour also! |
Sometimes if you just go balls out aggresive against one of the players when you get a chance, it might buy you a window into the game and hopefully your team mate will take advantage too. Time will give them room to prepare a plan and execute it, so try to deny them that .. :/
Can always ask people you play against if they would like to join you for 2's. |
