Maxim spam is worse than playing against Brits

So I played a few games yesterday as Ostheer and almost 80% of the players on auto utilised some maxim spam strategy. They simply A-move it everywhere and if it gets into a house there is nothing you can do about it. Most annoying strategy ever and the matchup comes down to whether the flamer halftrack can decrew all the AT guns and maxims or will the AT gun 2-shot the halftrack... This is 10x worse than Brits as they just a-move their invincible maxims everywhere. Even clown cars are a breeze compared to this, they are so fragile and easy to go down. Maxims on the other hand is impossible to flank and almost never go down except to flamer halftrack.

While I managed to win most of the games, they were the most long boring games I've ever had in coh1 and coh2. Forget clown cars, Relic please nerf maxim spam into the ground thanks.

Its fairly easy to chase off with the Flamer HT.... I've lost easily to that Flamer when everyone said Maxims were so good...didn't really help me because I'm just better with scout car and scripts. I like to move around see whats going on...in 2on2 that's different, but 1on1 mg spam is kinda slow and boring.I have seen some good guys use it well.... and yea it looked very tough to beat but not every player can use that kind of skill to win vs Germans every game.

yes the flame HT can kill it, but thats 160 MP, 120 Ammo, and 20/40 fuel to beat a 240 manpower unit....WTF (the HT costs may be off, cant remember the mp and fuel cost)
