I've been playing only US for a long time since that's my favorite faction and I also think it's the best ^^
Now the other day I fought GRdjw (yeah that's him) in vCoH and we both won our US games and BADLY lost our Wehr ones....
With US we just ran around with Rifles and gotted dominance and eventually rolled the other guy. As Wehr it seems you HAVE to get a goddamn MG42 (I try to avoid getting one since I'm normally so aggressive and don't like sitting idly and wait for the enemy) but I don't know what else to do....I've heard of V,V,S,MG and stealth (dual snipers and what more?).
It's just so fiddly to play Wehr with an MG42 that has to guard every other unit while as US you just roll everything with BARs, grenades and stickies....

I checked the pinned topic for new players and I'm gonna watch a few things.
If the US player rolls on you, you forgot to lay some mines. MGs are really important as werh, but it's very possible to play without them. While mines, are just too important for werh as for US.
It's funny how players don't lay mines anymore in vcoh. I mean we used to have mines all the time from both sides, now it's so easy to flank. I bet that this lack of mines comes from coh2 playstyle.
