Action Items: Balance Feedback Required!

Long Range Combat:
With our change to lethality in a previous update to make cover more important. A side effect of that change was that it made long range weapons extremely effective, especially LMGs. The combination of cover, lethality, and long range has resulted in medium to short range units being overall less effective. In most situation, units that require closer range will lose too many men on approach resulting in a significant drop in offensive performance.

Feedback would be greatly appreciated and thank you!

Make so Support weapons are not able to grab territory. Maxim spam problem solved.

How is that fair to other factions support teams though?

And the Devs, specifically and in no uncertain terms, are asking for feedback on Sov Support Team durability

That is the actual question at hand.

@Devs: The problem "Maxim Spam" could be easily solved if sovjets were given infantry strong enough to face Grens in an equal combat. You can't engage on melee range everytime!

Don't understand the question

The question is:

Devs are asking for feedback on the problem of Soviet Support Team durability being too high.

Maxim is fine. ZiS and 120mm Mortar for some reason are made of titanium or something similar as they tend to take much more beating. I would change these, leaving Maxim intact.

I would change so support teams can't cap to kill two birds with one stone and resolve the issue with Maxims over performing when spammed.

If the maxim squad does get turned to 4 man, GG because of the stupid rifles nades, that can kill up to 4 members, because they like to bunch up

...
ZiS even when flanked can take multiple tank shells and provides green cover as well (if I am not mistaken) so clearing it with infantry takes time. That's why I came out with the idea of leaving Maxim as it is and only adjust ZiS and Mortars.
