oh god i'm surrounded by noobs
ya'll need to play some COH1, get yourself educated
-Wehrmacht had a sniper
-US had a sniper
-Campy Britz had a sniper in the recon squad only, where one sniper shot cost muni
-PE had no sniper, though it had anti-sniper devices like the vampire, or kettenkrad (and the vampire was not so much used until the 2.602 patch i.e. the last patch)- and the ATHT could be classed, very loosely, as a sniper, if you forked out for the 'concentrate fire' ability - or whatever it was called.
All units in CoH2 should have a sniper component(IMO) The USF is hampered without one; and if the OKW is nerfed, as it will surely be at some point, so too should this army have one
And BTW, sir muffin, I think sniper play hinders general gameplay, FWIW
