USF has access to mines:
R.E. M7 light mine with temp snare that slow vehicles and make dives harder
M20 M6 mine ideal to stop dives

Doctrinal:
out of the 9 commander only 4 do not get extra doctrinal mines.

We're talking about airborne here, which gets no proper mines, period.

RE mines are a joke and have never prevented any armor dives. Suggesting leaning into them is actually hilarious.

M20 mine is god-tier. Too bad it's tech-locked and can hardly be spammed due to its high cost. In an open map, it's hardly a reliable option. That's why it's preferable to lean on skill planes, if you get dived.

If US had non-doc proper ap mines, you could actually have a point that airborne scotts are difficult to dive. As it stands however, this "issue" still remains as a purely l2p-tier problem.

I hate to say this, but if any "issue" is a l2p issue then this is it. I'm the usf player from that Duffman stream and he could've easily countered me if he had used a single brain cell, instead of running against a wall repeatedly. He even said his mistakes aloud, yet seemed to ignore them for god knows what reason.

Here's how you counter pathfinders (which btw are a 4-man squad with 1.0 --> 0.71 RA and with no snare which make them the most fragile combat inf squad in the game and calling them op is actually comical seeing JLIs are a thing): mobile light vehicles and smoke. That's it, there's nothing more to it. PS: Does this tip seem familiar? That's because it's the point axis players make, when allied players complain about their fragile tanks being cannon fodder.

And here's the last thing you do: build a g-damn flak ht, when you can see that your enemy has pathfinders and has gone for captain tier. Pathfinder + at gun makes that ht immediately obsolete. Luchs would have worked much better for him, instead he knowingly made the worse teching choice and that's his fault. Still, he could've salvaged the situation by utilizing a leig and its smoke barrage before pushing at me. But of course he didn't build a single leig the entire game. Unbelievably, this "pro" player didn't ever use smoke to his advantage when playing vs pathfinders and knowing i have the vision advantage.

Of course, his tier also has the best vision unit in the game as well, the ir ht, which he could've used to play the vision game with me, but that's seemingly out of the picture as well.

Instead he continues to bitch and moan about his opponent who has a seemingly idiotic build, while he himself is doing nothing to counter that said build, which btw can be seen coming from the first minute of the game.

Also, scotts only have 50-80 range, so they're well within diving range. Unlike real artillery that can confidently fire from deep within friendly territory. Making them any more fragile just makes them panther chow.

Speaking of dives and panthers, here's how you counter scotts. Make a panther, seriously. Do what 4v4 axis players do best and dive with those. Did I mention, the USF player has no real access to actual mines and pathfinder builds sorely lack snares. Oh yes, both axis factions get that hard counter non doc and with linear teching so there is no excuse.

How do I know these counters? Because I get countered when playing airborne USF every day by more competent axis players, that seem to actually utilize tactical thinking in an RTS. Shocking right?

Or, you know, spam obers and jp4s against airborne usf and watch your manpower go down the gutter. Then whine about your loss and blame balance.

Instead of l2p.
