What? I´m always glad if I see Soviet opponents on the loading screen. Seeing Brits on the loading screen makes me feel frustrated and prepared for an unfun game. Brits are by far stronger than poor Soviets.
Vickers > Maxim
Tommies > Conscripts
Cromwells > T-34/76s
Comets > doctrinal T-34/85s
To only mention a few important units. Add to that the worst vet bonuses in the game coming for Soviet units and some of the most gimmicky abilities and vet bonuses coming for the Brits (grenade on tanks, Phosphorus rounds, tank commander, Blitz without vet) and Soviets are the clear loser.
Well said Butcher.
That's why I have come to love the UKF - Lock down fuel in a jiffy, thanks to fighting positions, and then follow up with a Bofors.
Mind you I'm a team game type of guy; 1v1 isnt really for me
That is literally a solid line of more expensive item > less expensive item. A point that you could make is that 6pdr > ZIS but other than that I can't think of anything substantial that isn't compensated for.
Both weapons are situational.
When it comes to synergy, a Zis works better than the 6pdr because its an assault gun.
Together with a Maxim, it becomes anti everything, AND comes from the same building.
