PG do no stand a chance vs Shock
Obers come later, need a weapon upgrade and are only decent once vetted.

You are right about them being map dependent, but that is not actually a bad design. By making units better on certain maps one can increase diversity.


What do you mean PGS cant fight Shocks? We had this play out since 2014 and at mid range PGs can do good amount of damage, kill few models and shocks need to close the distance - not mention vet 3 PGs are amazing AI. Obers are stock infantry while Shocks are only available in a doctrine.

Actually vet 0 shocks can almost afford to close in on vet 3 pgrens from max range. Not saying that pgrens need a change, just saying shocks are FAR better than pgrens.

Vet 1 Obers >>>>>>>>>>>shocks. Something about having to close on a squad that can throw poison smoke....

You are comparing shocks with units that are come later are, more expensive, do not have smoke grenades and require weapon upgrades. This is rather misleading. And if that was the case the could come with 4 PPsh +2 SVTs similar to paras.

In the end of the day they where facing axis unit and there very few infatry that could stand up against them.

And you are completely ignoring what kind of army stands behind these units, so stop these useless vacuum theories.

If shocks had BAR rifles behind them, the echoes from screeching about op from you would be heard by our grand grand kids.
