Soviet Sandbag Placement Tips
Posts: 76
Also, does heavy cover provide bonus to light vehicles? I think it did in COH vanilla.
As from my experience I find that sandbags work well when I build early sniper, this way I can build sandbags in plain sight and counter Germys when they take them over.
Also, I build them at enemy's far cut of points... such as semoskiy maps. the reasoning is that Germans will not make use of them because its not a highly contested area.

Langreskaya has a great spot at the hedge just below and to the left of the right munitions point if you spawn on top. I also like to put them right on the edge of capture points so my opponent won't get to cap if they decide to use the green cover.
Also putting them at an oblique angle to hedges facing towards the enemy to make a really bad angle for them and a strong defense point for you.

Here is a sketch:
Enemy attacks from the top, I defend from the bottom.

| = wall, impassable terrain.
. = open ground.
\ = sandbag position.
My units will be be protected from frontal assaults and are hard to flank in this sketch. However, if I get pushed back, the enemy soldiers will be easily flanked due to the angle of the sand bags.

When I build sandbags to fortify a position, I usually build them at an angle that will protect my troops from frontal assaults, while at the same time providing little protection when used by the enemy.

Ah this is a perfect visual of the "oblique" angle I was talking about. +1

you cant banned because you spam ghost sandbags, then half population of that 4k player should be banned for spamming wires Kappa

Placing sandbags is a good way to waste precious time. Especially during early game.
Here is a match I just played featuring early and mid game sandbag use to show that this is not true. With simple timing you can place sandbags while capping.
