I still dont get it? The role is still the same? I did not propose changes to AOE for more AI and such?

Ok maybe i got you confused.

I was meaning about the armor theme of Wehr units. My proposal makes it beautiful and useful clear progression

stug -> panzer -> panther -> tiger

Anyone else feels same? Any thing i missed out?

The only one you confused is yourself.
Your trying to forge inexistent progression while ignoring units intended roles.
They should not be picked because one is cheaper then another, its not World of Tanks, you don't tech up from P4 to panther to tiger, you pick specific vehicle as a response to specific threat.

Doesn't anybody think if it had a bit more anty infantry capabilities nobody would complain? Now it in neither TD nor AI tank.

Its a brawler, its supposed to outlast its targets, not outDPS them.
Also, if you think it got bad AI, I suggest you check the DPS of its MGs and compare it to actual TDs AI DPS.

I can live with the fact that Ostruppen have a cooldown at the start, but the reinforcement rate nerf is uncalled for.

I assume you've never, not even once in your coh career came up with an idea to use osttruppen together with 251. That was main reason why reinforce time was nerfed.
You literally could outshoot every single infantry in game with 251 behind as long as number of squads on both sides was equal.

And people make SUCH A BIG DEAL about the stupid lmg upgrade is a massive buff. It isn't. 1) Gotta tech BP3. While USF/UKF can get upgrades as soon as they want. 2) Bal team is so scared of overbuffing Ost, they nerfed the performance of the lmg 3) Only one weapon slot and removed the cover bonus for picked up weapons. That's a lot of caveats.

1) It is, its considerable DPS boost that makes ONE osttruppen model have about as much ranged DPS as one conscript... SQUAD. Its irrelevant that its BP3 locked, DPS is not primary function of the squad, that's what are grens for.
2) You see nothing wrong with 6 man squad having powerful long range DPS? I'll assume you are perfectly fine and content with giving conscripts back 2 weapon slots, so brits can equip them with 2 vickers k.
Seriously, what do you expect from 200mp 0CP squad?
3) Because they were 2nd most overpowered squad in the whole game when picked 2 weapons (first one was cons). Their LMG in cover got 75% of performance os gren LMG and it got 75% of its cost. Nothing wrong, bad, nerfed or imbalanced considering the cost. Don't REEEEE so much.

What is the reason you say this?

Oh I don't know....
The obvious fact supported by units statistics, screaming that its not a generalist tank, but an AT vehicle designed to outlast all non AT dedicated vehicles?

Putting this way, makes wehr faction more distinct and easier to understand.
Ultimately, it is more to make Panther works across a match.

If its so confusing for you, lets remove panther from both axis factions and place turretless, fragile tank destroyer instead.
Give them both Marder 3, so you can no longer be confused.

Yes but then the problem rises that Wermacht has to deal with rifleman without mg support an they just outclassed them. Of course getting a wehr mortar kind of works out but that is 240 manpower which is another grenadier and more map presence.

And getting a mortar means you have 1 less rifle to deal with......
Its always hilarious when people say that building X unit deprives them from Y unit, but it never seem to be the case for the opponent with more expensive units.

Suggested fix to the problem:

Move

Ost MHT can do exact the same, but it kills.
