Hello strategists, I would like to hear your opinion about this option and the commanders that give it, especially the Infantry Company Commander. I've just read the guide of CookiezNcream about this commander but it is 1 year old and I wonder if anything in this guide is right now.
Ok the 5 ammo mines are gone today but what about M1919? Is it worthy, or nerfed so don't even think to waste the 70ammo? I only play 3v3 and 4v4 and just started to learn the US forces.

They are your bread and butter to a- moving your blob to victory. Equip all your riflemen with 2.

Get Tactical Support, equip all riflemen with double, call in CalliOPes and win. And don't forget to blob them.

We all complained about how ridiculously powerful the duel-M1919-equipped Rifleman blobs can get, and here we are, telling players new to USF to do the exact same thing we all despise. We create our demons, didn't we? (No offense to EYFYHS)

Anyways, back to the topic: They're right. Since you play 3v3+, it won't be that hard to get 3 Vet 3 Rifleman squads with duel-equipped M1919s and just steam roll any Axis infantry squads.‎

M1919 & vet riflemen are powerfull as hell.
but why would M1919 be better than BAR ?

It doesn't fire on moove, is slightly better at long range but worst than bar at middle, cost more and need to take the good commander.

EYFYHS : i would better go for BARS blob (at least 4 riflemen dual equiped) and don't forget to put a forward retreat point near, so that you can bring democracy to these NAZI plebs.

Just like everyone said, they're worth it. Coming from a 4v4 player, it dishes enough damage that grouped squads can kill an HMG crew.

Oo I'm glad ppl still read that. :D I did update it I'm pretty sure.

most of the "concepts" in that guide apply more than ever. Except you can ignore the "this commander is weak against etc" as USF is pretty strong against both axis factions provided you have decent micros.

With the mortar now, which I guess I should add in: it's even more lethal, mgs can't stop your riflemen because they'll get peppered by mortar and grenadiers/ volks simply can't stand up at all. Snipers/ obers/ falls are axis only chance and they can get rocked by artillery or the plethora of lights USF has, or simply matched by the LMG riflemen.


Just make sure you attack move the rifles.

Here's a good 2v2 game with my Asian friend(he's the best blobber you'll see) that showcases the best way to use LMG, lights, late game arty and mortars:

Yeah this game pretty much summons the balance and the state of the game up for the last few months. Nothing they could have done against double USF in this scenario. Blobbing skills on point.

Infantry Company is quite decent in team games, especially in long ranged maps where 1919 LMGs excel. You can build an army of AI specialists (Riflemen with 2 LMGs each + optional LT) and AT specialists (Jacksons). Priests inflict great damage upon static foes such as forward Headquarters.

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM
Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
