Are people talking about how it's on par with T34 AI or "as OP as the SU76" serious? I mean, I don't think it's an OP unit, but I don't know how you could deny that it's a very effective AI platform. It has a good ROF and thanks to unit clumping can be exceptionally deadly at times. Based on my experience it's much more effective than T34 at wiping large numbers of infantry. And it's cheap, comes with a good doctrine, and doesn't require teching! The comparison to a T3/T4 stock soviet unit seems puzzling.

stug e in a 1v1 in a players hands with good micro is just way to cost effective at 6cp with the current soviet tech costs... is that good enough for everyone coming back with a smart ass answer..it 2 shots squads sometimes 1 shots.. its a huge impact for 230 mp and like 75 fuel and no tech required... and soon comes a tiger..

If that was the true we'd have about 50 threads to nerf SU-76 a day.
I can't even imagine how bad you have to be to achieve that result.
AT Riflenade FTW
The PTRS's are fine as they are. Whenever i'm up against Guard Infantry, I always have to be careful with my vehicles or the Guards will completely destroy them. Good range, good damage and fairly cheap; if anything, the PTRS should nerfed since it's ridiculously good for the price. Even in the hands of Conscripts, the PTRS's are extremely potent.

Although the real benefit comes from fighting grouped up blobs, in which the the stug e does really shine.

Stug E, the only tank that can be reliable killed by PTRS 
My controls weren't working
And if they were, you were playing dishonorably,
And if you weren't, you were playing without skill,
And if you were, it's not fun to play that way,
And if it is, you only care about winning.
Bible of Scrublord, Psalt 3:16.

I don't even know what to say, this commander is one of the few things that keeps Ostheer competative with USF and you think it should be nerfed?
The StuG E has the lowest health of any axis medium tank in the game!

fucking stop confusing overall balance and unit balance. it's not fucking ok for something to be OP just because everything else is shit. don't fucking bring that up in a balance discussion.

Permanently BannedI know people on here are mad at this unit. But for gods sake saying this unit 1 shots somewhat regularly is a joke. 1 shot two guys 3 guys sometimes? Never entire squads with 1 shot. Otherwise panzer4s and shermans are problems.

exactly..it is op because it can kill 1 or 2 units per shot? When it didn't do that it was useless. By this logic the ostheer sniper is op. It dies almost as easy as the stug e.

People have a problem with this tank? Its usually dead before its capable of doing something. IMO its performance is right for its price comparing other tanks that cost about the same. They OP too as well?

My biggest problem with the StuG E is that it doesn't have the pretty explosion like the Sherman HE. It's firing HE round, it deserves the pretty!

I agree, it's extremly effective when one knows how to use it but so is pretty much every unit in game when in the hands of a top player.
It's not that you need to tech to counter it, PTRS Guards and AT-Nades can handle it, or at lesast keep it at bay long enough for you to tech.

USF hates it. soviets don't really care.

This. Most players go T2 so one simple ATG can effectively counter StuG E. At nades are very effective, and PTRS in good hands can keep it back. And it does not squad wipe as much as people say it does. Maybe if they whole squad is squeezed behind some object after the infantry grouping patch, but not other wise.

I usually get quite a lot of kills with the unit, but somehow when I face the unit I don't have that much trouble killing it. I can only talk from a Soviet perspective, since I don't enjoy playing USF, but I find it pretty easy to kill with guards + AT nade, or just a T34.

It was sarcasm, as in both units are neither OP, though the SU-76 is up in regards that it should really be a mobile ZiS and not a peashooter. The Stug-E does what it does though could be tougher.

Because its a light tank. Not a medium tank.
The PTRS's are fine as they are. Whenever i'm up against Guard Infantry, I always have to be careful with my vehicles or the Guards will completely destroy them. Good range, good damage and fairly cheap; if anything, the PTRS should nerfed since it's ridiculously good for the price. Even in the hands of Conscripts, the PTRS's are extremely potent.
