I was requested to upload this replay by TNrg, to give an indication of how to play against the Sniper/Guards/T34-85 combo using the Mobile Defence commander (top 100 Soviet opponent).
Overall I'm not that pleased with how I played this game: my infantry micro was pretty terrible and losing 2 of my initial 3 Grenadier squads over the course of the game hurt me when I had to contend with his Vet 3 Guards squads. He only built 1 Sniper, which was a mixed blessing - 2 Snipers is much better against Grens and MGs, but ends up being a big waste of Soviet manpower once Ostruppen hit the field. No 120mm Mortars this game, but they wouldn't really have helped him against my Ostruppen. In the end, I used the P4 Command Tank to deal with his Guards, which worked pretty well.
Ultimately, I think in the late-game this is a pretty good showcase of how to use Pumas to counter T34-85s, making full use of Smoke Projectors and Target Weak Point. Other important things I did were placing Teller Mines at key checkpoints (which lets me get an early T34 kill) and building a Pak quite early (perhaps a bit too early) so that I was prepared for the tanks. I went for quite an aggressive early game strategy, which helped him get Guards early but did allow me to deny his fuel for a while, which delayed his second call-in.
