This is so sarcastic and ironic, I love it!

Because you equate the Covenant as the Quality vs the Quantity faction?

It's funny because with their swollen numbers through grunts and jackals, they actually outnumbered humanity! Humanity had lesser numbers but more innovative technology rather than imitative reverse engineered technology like the Covies.


Otherwise I'm not sure where you see the Irony or the Sarcasm.

The T-70 and M5 Halftrack Or USF FlaK Halftrack can be countered by a PaK-40, Panzershreks, or multiple panzerfausts.

Semoskiy is a small map though, so any amount of teller mines places on the field will be beneficial to handling your enemies light vehicles.

Also try to push out a fast StuG. If you can't do that, Try to get Vet-1 on your MG-42's and garrison them in buildings. Since you can manually adjust their direction, the incendiary ammo ability will shred most light vehicles, often before they can react. Though I can't guarantee you'll achieve the same result on a T-70.


It's crucial though that you don't waste your resources just bashing your head against the brick wall of his defenses. Try to find a way to barrage him, mortars normally work, especially if you tell them to "Attack ground' you'll hit with a large degree of accuracy.

Smoke barrage to cover an approach will shut down MG's. Trying to control the buildings in Semoskiy can be critical to success or failure.


Also you can push out a fast Flame-Halftrack as Ostheer, which is deliciously powerful against mortars, MG's, and buildings. If your opponents is using the semi-urban setting to his advantage, I suggest using the time you have with the FHT to burn down most if not all of the buildings that would be beneficial to your enemy. This denies him garrisons and will force him to adopt a less than defensive stance.

Just gonna add on to this

Covenant < Humanity : Spartans are just bad-ass, I don't care how many Scarabs the Covies pull.

Why not? Sturmpios come with ARs that absolutely SHRED infantry at close range and they come stock and in the first 60 seconds of a game? Panzergrens come stock with ARs and can be upgradeable with anti tank capabilities that absolutely annihilate allied tanks.

And if you're right, that's fine, you then gave a good answer to the problem. Give us rangers with stock thompsons, but also make their manppwer cost equal to the damage that they can deal. Hell, charge me 500 manpower (joking) - I don't even care! Lol. Just give me something else to use other than riflemen!

There should be absolutely no reason why the USF can't have an infantry squad come on the map (sort of) late game and be immediately powerful at close range engagements.

Just gotta point out that Sturmpioneers can't really hit jack shit outside of fisting distance. Just like old shocktroops were. It's pretty damn frustrating.

I like it as it is in the game. Adds an interesting dynamic to gameplay and was intended to showcase the brutal conditions of the Eastern Front. Just because Relic has expanded to Western Front territory doesn't mean that we should forget about the Eastern Front roots.
