Ah! It seems like someone stumbled unto one of my strategies.
You do not need usf to cheese big cats, you can use russia or double brits and do the same thing.
Russia can use il-2 and brits can use precision barrage.
Happy hunting and remember to spread the salt.
The soviet scout car is actually really good. The wc51 just sucks because you can't get flamer echelon in it.
If you are having problems with the soviet scout car, you could improve by working on your micro and practicing with it.
The jadgpanzer 4 doesn't rival su, different roles, it is an anti tank destroyer with 185 average pen, su 85 is anti heavy for 220 average pen.
Su 85 has better pen, can provide vision for itself, can rotate much faster.
Jadgpanzer 4 will hardly penetrate pershing, is2, churchill, but will be optimal against other tank destroyers thanks to the armor and stealth, it cost 135 fuel while a more versatile su 85 cost 110 fuel.
At this point i think you aren't aware of simply cold stats.
And you mean 150 fuel 110 pen panzer 4 ausf j ? It cries in a corner whenever a 130 fuel t34-85 or a 140 fuel ez8 comes, both have better penetration and better AI performances (and if for some reason your mind is evaluating as argument the "they are doctrinal" remember this is a thread about balancing a doctrinal unit )
Ostheer are more munition hungry than USF. Grenadier without weapon upgrades is one of the worse mainline infantry while PZIV and Panther without pintals are bad vs infantry...
How is it that ostheer uses more munitions than usf?
Unless usf goes a doctrine without mines, usf uses the most munitions.
