Almost all of which are on either infantry or light forces, which is as it should be.
Though as for recon into the fog of war... The recon plane is shot down making it a waste of munitions ( used to be a free ability on the commnd vehicle though generally lasted about 15 seconds). Flare from the 17 pdr only reaches it's perimeter... Lord knows who thought that piece of trash needed a nerf! Sniper's sight is being nerfed... Despite them supposedly being a light vehicle counter... That isn't going to work.
What is lacking is non doc recon into the fog of war, which is essential given static emplacements. Otherwise you can just park leigs, stukas etc and shell to your hearts content. The only possible counterplay is doctrinal.
Good spotting should be for infantry and light vehicles across all factions, not 50 tonne tanks or semi mobile pillboxes. Hence combined arms is required to use the heavy stuff.
if we're looking at this in a broad axis vs allies point then I couldn't disagree more, allies have the best anti aircraft in the game, a range of non doc recon, a whole slew of granted mostly doctrinal but good mobile and immobile arty and the longest ranged TD's in the game.
I still don't get the talk about removing scope as well, it's basically a must take for late game otherwise it's an ez gg in team games
