usually,i go light vehicle against mg spam start,as at the beginning of the game if i go motar and mainline infenty, i can't hold the line and my motar will be forced back.
If OST went early MGs it hardly could force your mortars off, unless you did push recklessness before that happened.
however,the early Panzershrecks make light vehicle useless. i can't counter with light vehicle any longer.
and they skip all the tech to get the fast ostwind and i can't find the punishment about skip tech.
I suggest you not to use exaggeration+opinions, they both dont mix well. A light vehicle is still reliable since its more mobile than Pgrens, you are just forced to avoid their AT squad only. The rest of the map is yours, adapt, improvise, overcome.
Oswtind last buff turned it into a crutch unit, but it doesnt mean the game is over, it just forces you to go ATG with support or do a steep climb into decent mediums, Shermans or M10 as USF, cromwell as UKF or T34/T70+support.
A replay would help a lot to let other see the weak spot and improve it.
is it an ok idea that pg can only upgrade Panzershrecks after build t2?
i think i counld be good as pg can still come out earlier but make t2 building a necessary AT building.
Your point is valid OP, but so is a good suggestion to take gameplay advices. That counts for everyone here posting, no one is game perfect player
