Ostheer Tips for Urban Maps

I've been playing a lot of 1v1 Ostheer games recently, and I typically find heavily urban maps (La Gleize, Stalingrad, Semoskiy e.t.c.) to be the most difficult to win on against Soviets. Conscripts can outshoot Grenadiers at close range due to the larger squad, and they can usually find a way to flank MGs (which I would normally use against conscripts). Cheap molotovs also make it harder. Later on, Shock Troops are ridiculously good at close range, especially for players who know how to use the smoke grenade.

Basically, I'd like any tips to help with this problem. Anything from build order/commander/micro would be appreciated.

It's simple always veto those maps as axis

If only they could have done that during the war.

It's the only way. Veto.

Those are very unbalanced maps.

Besides vetoing, i would recommend G43s and flamethrower pios. Assault grens can work in the beginning, but they don't hold up later on against shocks.

I have some success with camouflage on Gren with G43 to almost instakill infantris in Urban Maps, but in those doctrines, there is no Tigers, so better make them surrender at mid game, or you are screwd.

But as they told you, better veto those maps.
