Theres a problem, Ostwind is not hard AI enough for its cost.
Panzer IV is almost as good on AI as the ostwind for 15 fuel difference.

And I would like to see your solution to making the PIV more viable in the current Jackson meta, seeing as it's main gun is fine the only real thing I can think of is a cost decrease or a increase in health and armor.

Imo that's because WFA factions got things like the Luchs and Flak Half-Tracks that wreck face, which make the Ostwind look bad in comparison. Even the Schwerer Panzer Headquarters, using the same gun as the Ostwind, makes the entire area around it a restricted zone.

The old ost strats still deliver a punch: assgrens on stalingrad, agressive halftrack + grens with lmgs combo VS usf, relief inf strats, onfield howi and double pak40 wins games vs USF.

I don't think that ost is the worst faction, grenadier lmg42 is good against usf rifles and of course tiger is god damn good against their tanks.

No, they just don't, no offence, but you are operating in the realm of outright fantasy here. Assgrens, seriously? They make winning the first engagement feasible if your opponent doesnt make it to a house, thats about it. Anything centered around Relief inf/Howie, you might as well just quit and spare youself the pain.
The StuG-E/Tiger combo or on large open maps the Ele might win games against US. None too often though, as you will have already lost/be boxed into your base sector before they even appear. A good US player has all the tools to deliver inordinate pressure in the early game and follow it up with a Sherman at 5 cp, and that will be that.

Who is operating in fantasy realm here?
I had an automatch 1 v 1 against Fortune (OST) and I went for airborne, he responded with ost onfield howi and thats was it. I had no counter to his arty.
I tought I had him early/mid game, but when the first shells landed on my retreating rifles the game became an upphill battle for me.

You are, and again, no offence here, but you got trolled by an admittedly very good player. If he has an Ostwind on the field, there is absolutely no excuse for you not to have a Sherman, especially with superior mapcontrol.
Again, we would not have this conversation if you actually played OH.
