Ostruppen rnd 2

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?
