I'm finding it super difficult to counter the double sniper + Penals/Guards PTRS combo. I have tried Panzerfusiliers with G43s but they don't seem to do enough DPS against snipers to kill both models. Interested to know how other people respond to this as OKW.

Is this for 1v1 or team games?
In both modes I find this actually the easiest Soviet strat to counter as OKW...
What you need to do is: Early aggression with Kübel,SP and Volks into Flak HT. If he goes Penals and Sniper he has nothing to stop you in the first few minutes. Go straight for his fuel or his fuel cut off and cap as much as you can with Kübel.

even if you get the fuel and all that shiet. it won't stop him from countering your light vehicles and bullying your mp with those double snipers.

Double Snipers vs OKW? Am I playing the same game? That´s like a auto loss. In my 1700 hrs I have NEVER seen someone use Soviet double snipers vs me (when playing OKW). The reason is simple. You have no stopping power. It can´t work...Against Ostheer it can work depending on map but no chance vs OKW. I have never seen anyone use double sniper vs OKW in any tournaments either. So it doesnt have anything to do with player levels either.

I have seen it and i have fought it. you clearly haven't. even streamers, i think it was hans using it a time ago(hans vs lmctx). you don't just instantly build 2sov snipers, but you can like after few mins, when u used that first sniper efficiantly, you can make that second and then it becomes annoying. it's quite easy and i don't get how you haven't even seen it. even 2v2 and 4v4 is full of it

If you want to kill both you need to flank your opponent really well or use camouflaged squad on retreat path. On the other hand you don't really need to kill both. Killing one a few times is often enough to bleed soviet player hard as the sniper is 90mp to reinforce.

Willy Pete: Have they shown the actual trees yet for the new commanders? Skimmed through the deep dive today, didnt see em

aerafield: I havent seen the new units in action yet (whose BGs will not be purchased by too many people as they are pretty expensive I recon), but I can say with 100% confidence that the Pershing needs a buff

Lady Xenarra: I would think lots more players would come/return since there's so many iconic units being added in the new BGs. I just don't want to hear another 8+ yrs of Pershing need buff complaints

Rosbone: Will it help or hurt the current player base is the real question. Should add more players, but may drive many away.

Rosbone: Yes you too can play with a persdhing for the low price of $24.99 USD. Or be the poor schlub who gets his rectum reconfigured who doesnt have the latest pay to win stuffs.

Rosbone: @aerafield Ahhh, I think I made a pershing like twice in my life since that commander is pretty bad in 4s.

aerafield: @Rosbone coh2 pershing has the same ability so, whatever. Though it's probably gonna be a 30 seconds ability to make it super broken pay to win, then 2 months later it will get "hotfixed" into a skillshot like coh2 pershing
