Kinda. Brits have the uc, Soviets have snipers and scout cars, allied mgs have been nerfed so okw can frontally assault them as long as they have two squads, and Ost has good vision through pioneers.


The M20 has pretty good vision that only gets better with vet. I don't remember for sure, but I think the WC51 also has decent sight. You can also go Captain for On Me! eventually, which can rescue squads from suppression.

Yea, they are good but you give up fuel in the meantime before you get them out. I think rushing the fuel and placing tank traps and sandbags on or near the point is the way to go. Then stalling for pak howies or mortar hts (if the enemy goes turtle build) is the best and most consistent way to play usf. I kinda have strats I closely follow to avoid being hardcountered.

Examples:
Enemy goes mg or mortars? Go pak Howie
Same build but has okw teammate? Go mortar ht because it is difficult to kill with walking stuka.
No mgs but gren spam? Rifles and 50
Sniper and gren build? Rifles and rush m20.

The sniper builds are the most difficult to counter as usf but I'm not mad because I know it takes skill using them. Also I use them myself.

I forgot about ass gren builds. They kinda make usf irrelevant without the wc51.

I survived the assgren popularity spike with Armor Company Ass Engies mixed with my Riflemen. AssGrens are scary for a while, but if you can just hold the line until you get a light vehicle out they become much less of a problem.

Should always have Mechanized Company and Armor Company in your commander list in 1v1 imo.

I can kind of see the ass engie comparison, even without the sprint and grenade assault, but riflemen and especially conscripts? Versus OKW?

No. Okw have sturms and volks. The combo gives them good far and close range damage. You could also get the kubel and kite with it.

Yea, assault engineers are alright, but ass grens builds sometimes mix mgs to keep problem units pinned. Sprinting to cover your mgs is what makes the build a pain to deal with.

Never go head on vs okw with just rifles. Next patch will probably change that. Not really an ass engineer user. But as okw you win the manpower battle vs usf.

I don't think so since sturms close range dps is quite good. Ass engineers win at very close range, sturms win at medium-close range. Ass grens sprint to your units in cover and beat you. Plus you can get an mg to pin units.

The only faction that can go toe-to-toe with okw is brits. That is about to change though.

u get 1 sturm squad, if u want another is 300 more mp

ass eng should beat sturm at close thank thanks to the extra man , at very close range like 0 sturm might have chance tho

cons can sprint too

For ass engineers to work you have to use shot blockers to close the distance. Ass grens sprint in the open towards any squad they want to engage. Ass grens are winning tournament matches.

Cons rushing,lolz

Because everyone is using them. Play a few matches with them and figure it out.

I said to use them or just watch vonivan use them everymatch. Competitive meta is a little different. Do not use vs scout cars!
