Anyone else feeling a bit underwhelmed by these units ? I've gone toe to toe across open ground with engis and still had a difficult time. They don't really dish out much damage.

Ambush units are actual ambush units in CoH3, not murderterminators with camo.

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Good Stuff here

Try to combine Commandos with Infantry training upgrade. At least the LmgCommandos are quite potent then

The only reason to grab that commander is the ability's, Guards are way better in terms of AI and AT.

Eh the other reason is how busted stealth is in CoH3. There is no other way to reveal a cloaked unit other than moving up extremely close or using one of the ~3 maphack abilities. Recon units don't get a detection bonus and planes don't reveal them at all

Ive had the pleasure of playing vs a top 20 brit player on an urban map before who spammed commandos and demo charges and it was probably the most infuriating match ever

I would suggest you use upgraded Gurkhas if you want an elite anti-inf specialist which can fight toe-to-toe with Axis squads. They will consistently beat everything short of Stosstruppen (don't try it), upgraded Guastatori (I don't need to explain this) or Pzgrens with Combined Arms + Veteran Squad Leader + vet advantage + Focused fire (at best a draw for the pzgrens).
