The strategy frankly is simple. Build conscripts til you can't build conscripts no more, then build more when you can. Radio intercept tells you when all their units come out and if you should get molotov (against medic truck) or AT nade (against mech truck). You may need to pop T2 for the ZiS but otherwise, simple spam conscripts (and maybe a flamer engie or 2 to throw down mines against vehicles) until t38-85s, then spam T34s and conscripts.
It actually works is the sad part
Advance Warfare? Conscript Spam!

I bought vCoH on January 3rd, 2007.
Still missing the days of vCoH 1.71. It had it's issues, like paks sniping 57s, and the strafe didn't work, but overall, it was probably the most balanced time in CoH history.
OF ruined that. CoH 2 is....balanced in a nasty way. Everyone has an equal stockpile of gamebreaking bullshit. USA is full of early game BS while the OKW doesn't get its BS until late game. It's just a question of how badly you exploit the faction's shit and how quickly, after a patch, you discover the gaping holes of bullshit Relic leaves. But either way, it's all BS. The only "BS" in vCoH that was gamechanging was the fast m8 vs a bunker.

Hahahahahah, what a great illustration Strumming. It's actually sad that the meta is so bland and idiotic.

Like there are so many OKW, OSTH or USF strats
This game is all about cheese strats/builds.

All posts made are about situations in 2v2's. Not a 1v1 player.

It's a problem caused by the over all design of the game.
A game of Soviets vs Wehrmacht where both players use combined arm and commanders that don't let you use call-in tanks alone without tech, like say, conscript support tactics vs jeager infantry tactics is actually quite fun for both players.

Can you go into a little more depth on that flowchart please or explain some of the strategies? I fear pure con spam won't be viable much longer

Comrade, i have found a slight flaw in this manaul. While it is very good and will teach many inexperienced commanders how to beat the fascists, however, i must state that the lend lease tactics is missing.
This is a very serious flaw, because the american built M4C sherman medium tank should not be underestimated. It too can be built with overwhelming numbers and be used with good sucess, especially because it can transfer munitions to much needed fuel for our tank spam.

tried this strategy in a 4v4 yesterday. It actually worked surprisingly well for the early and midgame! but after that, the enemy made a tiger and i slowly lost the game 
Axis doesn't have the best AT options in the game

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
