Worst blob of all is the para blob with LMG,its immune to mgs more or less with its recieved accuracy and 1919 brutal dmg.

try flak HT , it may even instapin few sqads and kills very fast. Require lot of micro but with some support of LOS and smoke its really good.

8 x 280 Manpower

How many MG34/42s do YOU THINK, in principle, should be needed to pin the blob?



This is a serious question regarding suppression mechanics and anti-blob counters.

Remember, if it costs more of unit A to counter unit B, then you might as well just counter unit B by building more unit B.

As the game stands, currently a blob of infantry can usually focus fire an MG squad and keep sniping the gunner.


EDIT: What I hoped your puny minds intelligent self-respecting internet selves would implicitly answer, is the question, "is the current number of machine guns required to counter this blob satisfactory? Would decreasing this number make countering blobs running across the open easier?"

8x rifles is 2240mp so you need 9x MG42 Kappa

You're wrong here. The worst blob ever is volks+obers leaded by an assault officer. I don't think allied have anything to stop that.
