So pretty much title.
Its really pissing me off that no matter how I try I'm unable to effectively use IGs. I do great with soviet\wehr mortars, I understand the "shotgunning" use of UKF\USF mortars and that you really want to use them at close as possible.
OKW IGs is a complete different story, when I use it it feels like it cant hit shit and its a MP dump, no matter with barrage or autofire, where mortars would have obliterate enemy IGs just totaly suck ass in my hands. While I usually see ppl being able to utilize it and deal good damage with it.
Speaking mostly from a teamgame perpective.
2 basic rules only:
1) For the most part you only wanna use autofire and sometimes ground attack. So dont put the LeIgs super far behind. Always let them move with your army together
2) Barrage only vs enemy mortars & MGs
