Then give it to Pathfinders too, and we can all have some nice sniper-free games.

f but as I've already revealed I prefer munitions based skill ceilings over simply a micro tax. Posts: 1979
How expensive should the arty ability be, and how fast come down ? Enough time to react and move mg ?

Previously discussed was something like having snipers crit at a threshold that increases with vet. So at vet 0 it's like 80% then by full vet they can knock off models outright. Idk though.

No. Giving snipers reduced los while moving is a better idea. Also faction need to be given early ultra-light vehicles to counter them.

CoH2 is unsalvageable. But snipers should be removed from a CoH3.
Snipers are annoying. Their instant model kills do not fit into the fundamental cover system of the game. They are hard to counter for certain faction rosters. With CoH2's abundancy of snares that always cause engine damage, light vehicle counters are useless. They are hard to balance. Their presence leads to boring sniper wars.
IMO in a CoH3 they should be reworked to recon teams. 2-4 men with a sniper that does regular damage (but high acc) and can snipe models for a munitions ability. They should have a big force multiplier type of power that gives a high skill ceiling for a combined arms approach. Such utility can be given by having several abilities such as: having very high view range, some kind of mark target ability, a muni model snipe to swing crucial engagements, maybe some kind of light artillery or smoke barrage call-in, a suppression ability, etc.
