Any tips how to deal with the Mechanized, which seems to be going in favor at this moment (played 3 games in a row against Ostsheer going Mechanised commander). As Soviets I won. The early Assault Grenadiers can be put in control with the Maxims and pushed off with the Shock Troops or the Quad HT. But, with the USF the Assault Grenadiers go out of control. They push while the MGs defend the control points which will eventually grant the Ostsheer player a PzV or a Tiger... Nevertheless any tips or even a strat on how to deal with these specific commander as USF or as Soviets would be appreciated.

Here is a reply for the ones interested:

M10

You dont need mines for tigers,you just need 4-5 M10s coming from 3 different angles so they dont take a hit from like double paks before they get shots on the rear.

OK thanks for the BO tips. I'll try them out. The Ostsheer players' play depends so much on raw power. They don't even bother to micro or anything as one can see in the reply above. Kinda feels stupid losing to that kind of play.

If you see assgrens pick armor, Rush M20, push him back and take the map. From there just try and hold on until you can get M10s.

Lay lots of M20 mines-if you don't, a Stug E times attack can murder your entire army before you get M10s.
