The title says it all. The excessive boosting of Riflemen during the second half of last year needs to be removed now that veterancy is correctly applied.

Excessive? Unless there's more that I'm forgetting, all they did was give them a bigger received accuracy bonus at vet 3. As for the new vet patch, I think we need more than 3 days to evaluate which squads need to be toned down.

Do some history lessons.

Apparently you don't know why they were buffed in the first place.

Also, since that time, axis infantry is stronger and elite one reinforces for much less.

L2P thread, just like all the aaa ones.

They also greatly boosted the range and accuracy of the bazooka. I recall they adjusted the accuracy on the move for bars. I think I remember costs for weaponry were also adjusted slightly.

In total, right now vetted Riflemen upgraded with weapons are simply way too strong and can get out of hand way too early given how easy they reach vet 3. It used to be possible to fight them off with armour, but since the zook boost that really isn't effective in many situations.

That leaves rocket artillery as the one counter, but pwerfers and stuka have been nerfed during the same time frame, perhaps deservedly so, but that leaves few options for countering

I play USF also, but prefer playing Axis. I like to play all the factions except Brits, where I have very few games. Soviets are my favorite Allied faction to play.

In fact I'm better with Soviets than anyone else even though I have less games as them than Axis. You can find my posts about the T34-76 not needing to be buffed in this forum. That is because I LIKE using the T34-76 and know how good it is even though many people do not understand its use.

I say what I think about the units, it doesn't matter what side I play as. However I'm pretty sure the posters here in this thread who are so quick to use ad hominem attacks to discredit me are actually the ones interested in maintaining the current imbalance for their own interests.

Wow you are really good with english I see. I didn't say I was better with Soviets than everyone else. I said I was better with Soviets than anyone else. Meaning, I'm better playing that faction than the other factions, not that I'm a better player than other players.

However as you are biased, you read what you want to read, not necessarily what is written.

My guess is you don't understand what this thread is about. It is about the challenge in countering Riflemen, not how to play Riflemen.

Last time I checked, smoke and flank is not something Axis players have at their disposal, but what USF does playing with Riflemen.
