Give RE a timed white phosphorous grenade and fix the base arty ability so it isn't a pain in the ass to activate and make it viable; currently you can target a bunker or building with it without having any shell hitting the damn target.

They have a lot of good units, but their lack of viable counter vs arty units/ entrenched positions is affecting them a lot.

I dont know about 1vs1 but OKW is definitely not OP in 2vs2. With my second account (Boba Fett) im currently ranked #8 on 2vs2 random as brits. With around 90 2vs2 games as brits I have seen plenty of top50 players that can beat OKW in 2vs2 np.

Primary problem with the ISG are the long range which make it much harder to flank/counter arty and hard to defend emplacements without pre-patch OP brace. Give ISG a long smoke barrage instead but nerf the regular arty range. Then ISG smoke + volks incendiary grenade + attack ground with panzershrek (smoke protecting volks getting focus fire) should become the primary OKW counter to brits emplacements which also allow allies to respond without OP brace shields.
Overnerf ISG again and we may start seeing 90% consistently playing 2vs2s as allies because OKW will become trash in 2vs2s without the current ISG. Without OKW its double Werh against 3 allied factions. 2vs2 axis combined arms RIP.

All these over nerfs with each patch are getting ridiculous. Its a much better alternative to have slightly OP units within each faction than a bunch of underperforming units that nobody are gonna build.

Remember OKW have no manpower sink like fuel/munition cache, no manpower for sniper, no bunkers or mgs without fortification/luftwaffe and lack fuel to invest manpower into armor. At least OKW have more combined arms now than pre-patch infantry blobs. As brits I would much rather fight against ISG + infantry + armor than pre-patch infantry blobberino meta.
