IRL the Stug E was similar to the SU76, and the Stug G was the direct counterpart. In the game though since the SU76 struggles with armor it should be similar to Stug E.
Even though it is only in one doc (now) I would still like to see a free barrage ability added to the Stug E as I mentioned.
And yes indeed the name means assault gun.
Stug III e needs some love

i think the only reason why the stug III e is in the game is that relic heard players want new units, so they just shoved in a new one from ToW because for some reason they don't want to make any more new tanks.
it will be much better if it was replayed with a stuh, which was in action in stalingrad after all.
This, seriously. I don't think adding a stuh would be balanced, it would make the doctrine even more over powered

So, since the last post was a year go, anyone has recently had any luck using this cute thing?
How does it perform anti-infantry or anti-armor?
I've used it just a few times and my opinion is that it seems it works well vs infantry, when I used it defensively, and can put some pressure on their armor, with pak40's support, plus it vets up fast

It's not for AT work.
However it counters the counters to assault genes and comes in the same doc.
People will often counter ass grens with Shocks and or T1, and it eats these.
Needs to be careful of real armour, real AT, conscripts with At grenades, zooks and sometimes PTRS.
A pair are standard in my BO for that commander.

It obliterates USF.
Nothing more needs to be said.

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.

Well, if you guys all saying that it sucks, then maybe it's just me. Dunno, last time I used it (not recently though) it killed infantry like a meat grinder, but, again, maybe it's just me.
Anyway, it's role is not AT focused, but AI focused. So I wouldn't complain to much if it can't stand toe to toe with a T34...

This is why you have people complaining about lack of Soviet bunkers, why T34/76 sucks, why Cons don't scale, Grens don't get normal grenades, Muricans don't get heavy tank, OKW laser weapons and Die Glock Death Bell, etc.

Much like the M20 does to Ostheer.
That being said the Stug E needs some looking at... maybe 40 range + larger scatter.

I like both the concept and the current state. It's a support vehicle, Get 1 or 2, Bring a Pak and wait for tiger. Although a little bit of AoE increase would be great.

Just ask your buddy to build a jagdtiger and barrage your foes to death.
It's Relic's responsibility.

Buff this doctrinal Stug and you will see BP1 and then call in Stug and Tiger.

I find reading this thread strange because everytime I've used the StuG E I've honestly been pleasantly surprised by its effectiveness, but then, I like spamming SU-76Ms, so ignore me.

This is a necroed thread, look at the date of complaints. Stug e has been buffed nicely since these complaints.

Yes, the person who necroed it did so explicitly to ask if it had been changed
It was more or less a joke before; now it is merely a well kept secret
Unless they have bought bazookas, at which point it explodes messily

And against soviets it consistently takes out chunks of infantry, killing 2-4 models per shot (unless it completely misses).
New cover system is a great buff to Stugee.
