Guards are great for dealing with armor, backed up with at guns and your own armor even more so, as you can button and flank the enemy armor. If you have more than one guard squad you can chain button, which can really help kill the heavier German armor.
There really should be a better infantry based doctrinal anti armor call in unit like the US have in the original coh, and guards moved into one of the appropriate base buildings, so the soviets have a soft counter anti vehicle squad available to all commanders.
I wonder if any of the other Russian commanders have bazookas available to them on a unit that we haven't seen yet in beta. As they did have some on lease lend from the Usa during WWII.
