Rofl the hell outta them with any sort of explosives.
Main thing in countering shocks - do not let them get anywhere close tou your troops. If you trying to counter it with another CQC unit,you already setting yourself into submissive position because of superior PPSHs and bodyarmor of theirs - AFAIK, no single axis unit have something like so.
So, long-range potent unit it is. Luckly for you, almost all OST units are well suited for long-mid range encounters - HMG 42s, Grens with LMGs and rifle nades, rather accurate mortar and great sniper wit ability to double-shot.

One thing I haven't seen other people mention yet is that flamethrower Pioneers will help the other infantry out because the flamer (2.5 pen) will ignore the Shocktroopers' armor (1.5).

Obviously flamer Pioneers will not be able to take on a Shocktrooper squad on their own, but they should do a lot of "cheap" (cost effective) damage when used together with other infantry.

Flamers also cause models to reposition or crawl. If they can get in a well timed burst they can certainly help.

Gren g43 doesn't snipe. Only JLI g43 snipes



Yea Yea ... formalities. But i had it often enough that the first shot already drops a model for example. Since that is pretty rng dependent
