I'm having problems with PIV mortar halftrack combo in 1v1, cant seem to find the mobility to get to the halftrack.
I'm going 5 cons then tier 1 tier 2 or sometimes tier 1 tier 3, depending what I'm seeing out there, T34's are what's mainly losing me games due to its lack of offensive ability, if I do anything but kite it seems to get fausted, so I almost have to avoid contact at anything but maximum range.
Su-85 cant do much offensively either, so im sort of at a loss.
what should I actually be trying to combat mortar halftrack and PIV as early as tier 3, swamping it with cons seems to bleed to much manpower, specially on retreat through the Axis lines after the attempt.
I will say I generally have dominant map control at this point.
I would suggest trying to use a different build order as the old meta with 4-5 cons no longer works. If your mirco is good try using t1 m3s with penals and guards. This will grant you more mobility and make it easier to hunt down the mortar half track if it is unsupported. Also if your opponent does tend to get mortar half tracks you must remember to never stay in the same place for to long.
For dealing with panzer IVs the t-34 on it's own is not a wise choice as the P4 penetrates more. Try and combine arms with perhaps a zis gun or guard squad to help combat the menace that is the P4.
