And soviets were designed to spam conscripts, get 1 tier for early game and 1 tier for late game.
It doesn't matter how factions were designed in 2013.
OST != Soviets
In other words dont change the subject unless its productive.

Without a strong mg42 Ost would have a harder time vs inf blobs.

like every faction in fact.

Gren blob is the weakest blob in fact.

And how did you decide that? And what's the point?

What was your point?
Gren blobs are 4 man squads. If you fail to see how that is weaker than a 5man mainline inf blob i cant help.

Cons are 6 men but make a much worse blob than volks at 5 men. If you can't see there is more to a squad than their model count I can't help.

If you use an underpowered infantry to compare fine, but add in ppsh and they are sure stronger. Doenst change lethality is to high for grens to blob them effectivly
I guess thats the reason why we see so much grensblob in comparison to rifle,IS,Volks and penal blobs.
Just to clarify, blob counter is AoE, and 4 models are way more prone to beeing wiped by AoE. Yes conscripts have more models, but we all now that conscripts are not Strong at the moment.

And what AOE has to do with the HMG42? The initial remark was about Ostheer having the HMG42 because it counters blob like if only Oshteer were facing blobs.

MG42 has been like that for a few years. Most people are fine with it, so if you are not able to deal with it, it is really a you problem instead of the game's. Also, please take the asymmetrical balancing into the consideration. Maxim isn't shit.

It's shit compared to the 42, which has the same price but doesn't need a building. No one's ignoring assymetry, the gap just doesn't need to be this big.
Very tired of people saying "assymetrical balance" like it ends the conversation. It doesn't, look at AT guns. Aside from the Rak their performance is all much more consistent, and the Rak is still very capable just in a different way.

Just to clarify:
You think ostheer needs a nerf..why?
For me, personally, ostheer is really weak this patch.

I think it's more "a price increase to bridge the gap of performance to cost because relic loathes the maxim and will NOT have it doing anything but deathlooping into 5 free fuel"
Put it this way: as any faction. ANY. there is maybe a 1% chance that if I see a maxim laying on the ground that I would grab it. Anything less than a 6 man crew and its absolutely unusable and even with a 6 man crew it barely performs anyways before it gets killed frontally. If you see any other MG, even an MG34 you grab it because you know it will do its job.
But you pay the same for a 42 and a maxim.
