Cant wait to spam osttruppen to pick up every ptrs dropped and wreck cons.


i've used 3 grens with G43 at vet 2-3, they couldn't stand a fight vs 3 cons PTRS, first salvo killed 3 grens in one squad :snfBarton:

PTRSs are RNG machines, particularly on conscripts.

It's stuff for free and an event. I can't bear myself to complain about that like almost everybody else here. What's wrong with me? Have I not spent enought time on this forum maybe? One day I can hope to be the same. One day.



You did not adress me in person but i do feel the need to reply:
I do applaud the effort of giving free commanders and double xp for the weekend, i merely think the commander choice for soviet is rather poor.
Actually, its so bad, it will ruin automatch for the weekend, considering every sov player will try it and since it is rather OP, the axis player will not have a fun time (and yes, every sov player does include me).

Simply put: i cba to deal with tank hunters every game, hence my rather negative first reply.

this such an overreaction, its ridiculous. Stop doing drama and appreciate this for once. one weekend of free tank hunters wont ruin your game as much as 2 hours of original elite troops did.

It's not that powerful. No Soviet players I met so far used it. Only played a few games this weekend but still. And if it's considered so powerful ("op"), everyone can go get it at any time ever since last patch that buffed the PTRS. It's not like it's a hidden secret that the PTRS are now much better, so. Just go easy on the light vehicles and hmg teams if someone is spamming PTRS. They won't have much ammo for anything else so one can also use that knowledge to one's advantage.

I've been using this doctrine since I dropped it, it's really stupid, and you will have ammos left and right by the sheer map control you get, they do a ridicolous amount of damage, 3xcons with ptrs will almost 1shot a flak ht and pII is useless against them, they rape everything I've even took down a command panther easily with them, granted he used it really badly, but I really have no need to use anything else but cons with ptrs,molos and at nades to counter everything from normal to elite infantry to any kind of tank there is with the exceptions of the tiger/kt, they even do a good job against OKW tiers, and the bombing run provided by the doctrine is only 180 muni and does a shitload of damage to everything even the KT.

I know they can definitely be very effective. But say you get countered by infantry, as many or more squads than your PTRS squads. Conscripts are still weak.
