Hey guys I was wondering if reducing move speed on shrek carrying squads would balance them out a little better?
We all know that a blob of shreks can destroy almost all allied vehicles with no much of a struggle but if they had a small movement penalty like 20% maybe it would allow a little more time for vehicles to run away!
What do you guys think?

I don't think it will work as much as say removing the Shrek and replacing it with a Faust and giving the Wehrmact a AT nade instead. But sure - it's better than 6 Volksgrens charging forth through a 50 cal to destroy my M8 Scott - the supposed blob counter with ease.
(I'm pretty salty about that.)

Don't reduce the speed of the squad, that will penalize too much vs enemy infantry.
The best they can do is increase the aim time of any bazooka weapon to define the role as a deffensive weapon. that will make blobs more easy to deal (kitting) with tanks, and will be useful for deffensive stances in case of enemy tanks approach to you.

Hey guys I was wondering if reducing move speed on m1919 carrying squads would balance them out a little better?
We all know that a blob of m1919s can wipe almost all axis infantry with not much of a struggle but if they had a small movement penalty like 20% maybe it would allow a little more time for axis infantry to run away!
What do you guys think?
(see how silly that sounds?)

A squad drilled in Prussian style runs as fast with Schrecks or Fausts as with MGs or rifles. That is a historical fact.

Problem is, 1919's require the troops to be stationary to shoot, meaning that chasing and moving around severely reduces the units fighting power, I think thats enough of a nerf.

and schrecks fire on the move? There are really plenty of stock options for each faction that are able to deal with schreck blobs, there's no reason to yet again make radical changes to OKW for the sake of peoples refusal to use those counters.

This and the introduction of that T0 mortar they had planned for USF would help make the WFA factions more interesting and we'd see less of that unhealthy infantry-only playstyles with almost no weapon teams.
It's simple psychology. If there is other accessible options to infantry-heavy approaches more people will try and use these alternatives. What needs to be encouraged is a combined use of infantry and team weapons. This was always what made CoH great & gave it such a tactical feel.

There's precisely one infantry unit in the game with a movement speed penalty and it is also an armoured-engineer unit with an LMG that isn't meant to fight much faster vehicles.
I can't see this working without making Panzerschrecks killing armour way faster if we're going to make vehicles even more faster than its users (like real-life balance, do-ho-ho-ho-ho).
