RE could use a damage increase, as of now they are just non combat units.

Make 50 cal T0 unit.

And how would OKW counter a .50 cal start? Prayer?

Would require giving smoke to Volks, Sturms, and other OKW infantry. Which I mean would be a very nice addition to the army but...well...you get my point.

The same way you counter maxim strats?

Except you would be easily outnumbering .50 cals who are also 50% less durable?

You're like a typical woman.
You'll find a problem for every solution.

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Good Stuff here

RE don't need sandbags when they can already make much better cover. I mean feel free to add it but it feels a bit silly when tank traps are already the best green cover.

Maxim's have lower AoE suppression, smaller arc, and are supported by far less deadly infantry. A .50 cal in the USF HQ to start would make the kubel unusable (unless you made it much more durable) and make Urban maps a living hell for OKW.

Like maxim spam is already a huge hard to counter problem for OKW, but at least maxims lock you into a tier and don't come with the best basic infantry in the game.

The only way you could balance it would be to give OKW smoke to enable pushes, but it would need to be free or have a reduced cost due to OKW's munitions penalty.

Same as okw supposed to counter maxims, same as americans supposed to counter Mg42 start, combined with mortars and snipers. Smoke comes later and clearly not enough. Say thanks to relic that the usf don't have sniper and kubelwagen in their T0, not to mention about valid machinegun.
