So since it is my game that was discussed here I want to say a few words too.
At first I don't think that the strat I faced there is invincable or something like that.
I outmicroed my oponent pretty hard for the majority of the game and was clearly leading. You can avoid the blob and the combo of officer + g43 Füsiliere works good. The perfect counter against that particular bullshit is imo the FlakHT. I went for it in that game and it did great. I thought about a luchs but that currently comes too late for that. I could barely afford the FlakHT when i desperatly needed it. When the luchs hits the field he will pretty much have a tank of his own which imo would flip the game in his favor way too much.
I went for an ISG too but like i said the game was practicly over at that point.
Yet that game was insanely frustrating. Not because of the blob but because of the random engine crit i lost my FlakHT to. Straight up costed me the game since my blob counter was gone. I didn't even bother anymore after that point because even if I manage to stay in the game, it is gonna be over when croc comes. I am certain I could have won with the FlakHT alive but the random engine crit ruined me.
I hope relic is going to completely remove any sort of random vehicle crits from this game as there is not a single reason to keep them in. They are cause for a lot of this game's frustration.
PS: Some of the suggestions to counter that blob are hilarious. Getting a Stuka might give you a nice punch against the blob but only until his centaur/cromwell or whatever the fuck he goes for tears your butthole open. Stuka is nice against brits but not at all at that point in the game.
Obviously a Sturmtiger is not a counter since it just comes way to late.
it is not random. for like 3 patches (including december one) the flak HT gets a 100% engine crit from small arms as soon as its hp drops below 50%. was severeal times reported and i think even "added to our database" but since coh is just a big mess of spaghetti code..
