An interesting idea, yet somehow I feel that this would lead to just as frustrating, if not more frustrating, play for allies. There would still be incentive to blob volks against any allied vehicles, especially light vehicles. One faust off on a light to snare it, while you could either follow up with 2 more fausts to finish it or just plink away with AT rifles. 1 schreck = 3 fausts. I'd much rather deal with kiting 1 schreck than one flanking Volks getting off a snare while the others rush in with AT rifles/more fausts. I'm willing to bet just about everyone else would feel the same. Honestly, Looney said it best, yet everyone on these forums tends to ignore any voice of reason:

The range of faust is nowhere near shrek. Micro is also a lot more intensive. it's not A+move... it's F+select unit. I do not hear about allies complaining about grenadier faust spam because faust snare isn't a problem. Micro, keep your distance. M20 gets 2 shotted by shreks. there's not kiting... if i take a hit by one squad, i better run away and repair... there's no continuance combat/kiting involved.

Isn't 1 flanking volks and 1-2 more from another side to kill a light vehicle more rewarding? it rewards tactics and flanking... 2-3 volks up front can just destroy an light vehicle...

So i totally disagree with you here. OKW would actually have to split up their blob to counter things like how allies has to multi-prong attack MGs. How often do you do see volks split up and attack? nah, it's easier just to attack together and toss a flame nade.

and again this is only related to 3v3+ games. I feel 1v1 and 2v2 it's not much of an issue. and you quoted Looney which i already mentioned does not have much experience in large team games. as he is mainly 1s and 2s.

KT is OP now?
Learn to play and stop posting nonsense.

A little off topic. I still think the stun round can be a very potent tool and game changer.

having two firefly also mean twice the drain on munition.

Why are people treating the british as if they have infinite munition?

they don't... if you're shooting tulips every time you see a tank... you're doing it wrong.
i believe most players are just referring it as a finisher ability. i think they're great in team games as long as they don't run into a shrek blob.

Wait the okw somehow has infinite mp? volks and rifles nearly cost the same. you can have 1.5 rifles for each elite okw infantry unit. and the jackson vs panther is really stupid mate. you are comparing a glass cannon vs a meatshield.

Uhh, do you play team? Do you see many players skip p4? so that's why panther comes into play. panther is not a meatshield... it's a tank hunter with heavy armor and good mobility... please get your facts straight.

If i anticipate a panther coming, i'm not going to build a sherman (cannot penetrate effectively), my counter is jackson.

given equal circumstances and my zooka riflemen flank a panther, it would probably survive. if volks flank a jackson, it probably won't survive.

have you NEVER seen volks and elites work in synergy? volks screen, elites DPS. do you not play as OKW and see floating MP? i'm sure floating mp when i play. as long as i don't feed units to my enemies, i'm golden. if i spent all my MP on zooks, riflemen would get raped by elites

playercard please. my allies w/l ratio is ~60%. my OKW is 75 and OST is 80. Axis 3+ team games is easier to play. i'm not saying it's impossible, i'm just saying you have it harder as allies

why are the stats showing the highest percentages in USF/OKW? because they're the mainline infantry blobbing factions. you can disagree but that doesn't change the stats.

i think you're right. in capable hands, it can be very deadly.
