Soviet "IronRoman" Strategy

Permanently BannedFirst, with your first combat engineer build support weapon kampaneya and make 4 mgs. Put mgs in important places where the fuel is.
Second, make conscript squat and instantly upgrade to anti tank nades and then make second conscript squad. You will want your conscripts close to your mgs in case the enemy ht flame rushes you.
Third, if the enemy got a mortar out, get a mortar out as well and then get a heal upgrade.
Fourth, pick "shock rifle frontline tactics" commander. Now if the enemy is spamming a lot of infantry like panzergrenadiers, start making shock troops to take care of them combined with your maxim mgs and your two conscript squads.
Fifth, make tank depot and start making su 85s. I recommend 2 su-85s in late game or even 3. When you have your first su-85 on the field support it with conscripts in case the enemy tries to flank your su-85 with panzer 4 or any other tank. Throw anti tank nades at his tank and finish it off with your su-85.
Sixth, in late game depends on the situation, if the enemy still spamming grens and panzergrenadiers have kv-8 out and have shock troops support it and have your su-85s in the back supporting you and keep the pressure on your enemy with your mgs. If you see any paks kill them with your shock troops or with your kv-8. If you have extra manpower, OP one or two fuel points, so you can get IS-2 tank out.
That's it. ENJOY IRONROMAN SOVIET STRATEGY.

Building no squads immediately will make it a little slower no?

You really need some form of artillery to drain the enemy's manpower, if you just suppress and retreat they will float a lot of manpower and then over run you will force.
tactically, once you set up you must advance every time the enemy assaults you and retreats, you need to look ahead of your defenses and behind and know where you want your MG's before the enemy hits you, if they retreat you advance, if they break through you know where you need to go. Do this and you will slowly envelope the map.
O also, MINES!!!! mine everything, everywhere. start on your flanks, just enough so enemy mortars wont detonate them but the likely paths a scout car or P4 might travel. I usually mine my base heavily at mid game in case of a tank rush because i set all of my units on one side of the map. Leave your su-85 between your base and MG defense so it can react to where ever the enemy armor goes.
TLDR:
Proper MG chokepoint placement
some sort of artillery, 86mm mortar, 120mm mortar, hatyusha, su-75, you have to drain the enemies manpower.
Look behind and ahead of your defenses, advance when you force the enemy to retreat and you will slowly envelope the map. Also look to where you need to retreat in case of a break through.
Hold 2 VP if possible so the Germans have to fight you(so you can attrition them)
Mines, mines, mines, mines, more mines and some more mines.

Just the 4 Maxim start I was talking about a while back that's viable - it's more annoying than SSSSS (Sorry Barton, QDuffy trolls everyone better than you)

That and Mg's are so easy to flank when you know where their set up. Not every map has buildings to protect you.
I would love a 1v1 with you so I can destroy your strat in front of your eyes lol

Permanently BannedYou're losing map control and capping power with that strat. A good player will take most of the map while waiting on flame trucks to wipe the MG's out. Keeping Conscripts near MG's all the time means you've said goodbye to map control. I would just take the map and bait your Conscripts out then rush your unprotected MG's with flamers.

You will have your chance at the legend of IronRoman some day and you will lose like others before you...

Legend has it that when lend lease vehicles are involved in COH2: Tales of Vladivostok, Iron Roman will drive his stags all the way from Siberia to Berlin via Moscow.
