Yup, back in business. This time I supplement with DSHK into M4c spam.

Been playing this strat as i fumble around trying to learn more about CoH2. It works 50% of the time for talent-less nubz like meeee!

I encountered it recently in 2v2. Both Opponents went Con/OOrah/Molotov spam with a ton of municaches followed up by call ins. They built around 20 Consquads together, I counted them after the game. The sheer fieldpresence of this conscript horde made it impossible to get a hold on the map. By the time we managed to push them back we were at 10cp and thus lost the game.

To be honest, I don't see how you counter this strat with a mixed Axis team if it's only half way decently executed.

Theoretically for every Con you can get one Gren. And Grens with LMGs usually rape Cons, especially if you put a HT close to them to reinforce on the fly. Only difference in handling the Grens compared to cons, is that you should move them in like packs of 2 squads each, as their DPS is then high enough to preventing the cons from gettin on close range.

Excellent! This is pretty much my preferred way of playing soviets since so far I find molotovs too random with just a few squads, don't like clowncars or relying on flamer crits, and refuse to be a maxim spammer. I'd really like to try this out with the advanced warfare commander, but he seems to have vanished from space and time...

well you just about listed every opening but this one. Sounds like you don't like to play soviet or perhaps waiting for that mortar/zis start to emerge.

T34/76 is NOT a joke on my hands; Maybe on your hands you make it suck shit? but on me, No. I can kill a stug with a little micro, go toe to toe with a Panzer 4. Is it a joke? LOL T34/85 is apparently a very good tank. But no one says it "one hit wipe" or elefant penetration; up to a point i think this little medium tank just have too much health and too much firepower with that fuel cost.

Not at all, Soviets are my favourite faction so far! I just don 't like relying on flame RNG and maxim cheese to carry the early game. Combined arms with t1 and t2 is great fun, and so far has been a good strat to swap to if someone counterspams with grens early on.

Advanced Warfare was a one-off give away that was available for one week only, same time as OH Close Air Support.

We don't know if or when it will ever come back

While pure onlycon spam seems to require AW, variations with a guard or 2 or a zis are very effective

I bought vCoH on January 3rd, 2007.
Still missing the days of vCoH 1.71. It had it's issues, like paks sniping 57s, and the strafe didn't work, but overall, it was probably the most balanced time in CoH history.

OF ruined that. CoH 2 is....balanced in a nasty way. Everyone has an equal stockpile of gamebreaking bullshit. USA is full of early game BS while the OKW doesn't get its BS until late game. It's just a question of how badly you exploit the faction's shit and how quickly, after a patch, you discover the gaping holes of bullshit Relic leaves. But either way, it's all BS. The only "BS" in vCoH that was gamechanging was the fast m8 vs a bunker.

I will need to try this. the field presence seems good. It seems like you need good micro and awareness to pull it off. I think flanking is very important for this strat because I an HMG can shut you down
