If it makes you feel better US T0 and Lieutenant tech is pretty useless against it too.

In all seriousness though OKW struggles against double sniper so its kind of a fair trade off. If you only have T1 and the flack truck comes out you should be close to a tank or light tank of some sort, it does cost a significant amount of fuel.

Personally I think it just has too much range, if its circle of denial was smaller it would be fine. Currently if they can push you off and set it up in a nice spot it is a huge no go zone

On a side note, no major change will ever happen so this whole Soviet T1 blows against the schwere will never be resolved

I know it's expensive and it is no less useful if a territory is required to be captured/owned first before it can be placed. This stops abusive players rushing their infantry to the forward most buildings and shutting down a game before it can even begin. We are talking about within the first 2-3 minutes and the game can be over.


It's not always as simple as "just us MG's and Mortars" because there are also plenty of cheese strats that compliment this abusive ability. Sniper Spam, Con Spam, Vanilla American Rifles become instant elite infantry just by being near the damn thing due to its bonuses. A single prerequisite of owning the territory isn't all that much to ask and it is a welcome delay that would buy German players enough time to also establish a territory to compete.

The ability should be forced into either CP-1 or restricted to buildings that are in an owned/friendly territory. On maps like Rostov on Don or La Glieze though, it's very game-breaking and can end a match before it even begins.
