In my opinion one of the two USF side techs should just go away completely and be tied to regular teching. Probably grenades in my opinion and tied them in with AT rifle grenades instead of the dumb vet requirement for a snare.

I'd rather use the new button to first only pay for tech and "open" the tier and decide what I want to buy without getting an officer (an officer could be bought just like any other unit from the given tier with only manpower cost).
Very often I wouldn't like another infatry squad but, for example, an mg or an at gun and would like to leave some room for rangers, for example. Getting an officer means that I have two options - either build fewer infantry squads early and get overrun by OKW or have 3 rifles and than end up having, for me, too many infantry squads (almost like intended Soviet faction design with lots of infantry).

When you have lots of infantry it's better as you have good, possibly 3 vetted REs with/or Rifles with double BARs and Zookas, being able if not to kill, then to scary off even Panthers and Obers with just a little problems, while Support Weapons always need a back up and can't do 2 jobs at the same time, like ATG can't fight infantry as USF, but Rifles with double Zookas can, especially considering grenades.

Its pritty Stronk. As long as you compensate its terrible accuracy by stopping before it fires, its pretty boss.
Toss in APHE and stalling until sturmtiger, you got youself a stew going.

Generally you are right and I agree. However, I'd like to have more options to make USF builds more diverse. Remember that a lot of infantry may be very manpower heavy because of reinforcement and upkeep cost. Sometimes I feel sort of happy to lose one of my inf squads because I have more room for more elite squads.

And if players treat Puma survive till vet 5 ....
Super strong maphack LUL.
In topic, USF is really BAD against agressive OKW playstyle, Mechanize tech so strong.
Rush Lutanant cost USF bleeding so much cuz no Ambulance, no weapon rack.

Hm I find using both officers is very very effective. Maybe even too effective, as it greatly increases your field pressence and pressure you can put on the field.

No, you just suck if you say shit like this.
For example you start with 2 Rifles-Ambulance-Another Rifle-Officer or 2 Rifles-Ambulance-Officer-Rifle.
Because of this you can upgrade for both Racks and Nades, make M20 as Luit to have AT capabilities besides AT nades early on because of a Zooka for a crew, LIE MINES FOR AT TOO WOW, and it has "some" AI capabilities because of a top HMG and go for Stuart.
If you're Captain, make an ATG for ...AT, wow, then just go for AA HT for beating the enemy down hard, and if you can, order in the wipe machine (if it hits) and you're off to go.
Oh, and don't forget, you DO HAVE Racks and Ambulance.

You really build an ambulance as 3rd unit? I'm lost with this topic.

Well if you're vs OKW then it's a good thing as, yes, you will get the Sappers down easily as they have low HP, but you're still going to get a lot of damage, so you would need a fast heal right away.
Vs Wehr it's usually 3rd only if I encounter an MG spam or the enemy is pressing real hard right away.
Depending, on teamgame, ambulance can be second unit if you wish but on 1vs1 try to get it after teching.

That's still a REALLY bad idea. Teamgame or not.
Map presence and fighting > the small dmg lost of not having healing early on. You are gonna lose more HP later on by trying to recover terrain or by fighting outnumbered.

I think the Stuart could use a fuel decrease to 55-60. I only ever get a Stuart vs a OKW player with a luchs. Otherwise it's not worth getting vs inf.
