I really can't understand the reasons that relic always buff soviets, M5 can get into battle in 7 min, and ostheer maybe only have 1 AT that is usless if M5 stay behind maxiam spams, the weapon members of soviets only cost 15 manpower each one. USF is very balance, very high ability of rifleman but little embrancing with the armers. Soviets is really the strongest in 1v1, 6 squard members and can beat gren who without LMG. and su76 can arty totally free, and maxiam can surpress mg42, that must be kidding, maxiam is rubbish in the history. And the gren is very strenge, when they face conscripts they will die one menmber very soon wich costs 1/4 ability to fight with 6 man. From the Coh2 begining the gren has 1.5 arm, and conscript has 1 arm, so the live of them are both 6, but now every infentries(except shocktroops) only have 1, so now gren only has 4 but conscripts has 6,and gren is the most basic infantry of ostheer, and the least squards members in this game. And in this version, relic nerff gren again, nerff the riflegrenade is a stupid change, that means gren has no posilbe to use the advance of combat in far distance, I really agree with relic never give a shit with the balance, always buff or nerff some units and make one camp harder to play, what a funny balance, and the camp always be ostheer. At last fuck you relic! Just cares how much commanders and DLC can sell, relic is the worst of all strategies game degsin group I never met.
It is a shame that the community is being so hostile towards you...
However, you need to approach discussions like this one in a more neutral manner. The tone of your post comes off as whiny/fanboyish (as much as I hate that term).
Instead of coming to the forums and spouting out a long single paragraph post on how Ostheer is weak 1v1, you might have more success if you came asking for help with Ostheer 1v1 and then explaining what you have had trouble countering.
The fact of the matter is that this patch Ostheer is extremely strong 1v1. Sure the M5 comes a little too soon but a single well placed PaK 40 can easily hold your ground until a Puma or Pz4 arrives to deal with it.
LMG grens are the most cost effective squad in the game and your statistical discussion of Grens vs Cons is simply riddled with ignorance. I don't mean that to offend you. I just mean to say that you lack a fundamental understanding of the statistics and mechanics at play. Yes Grenadiers have less EHP at vet 0 than Conscripts, but they also do a lot more DPS unless the cons can close the gap without losing models - not an easy feat on all maps.
The Maxim vs MG42 match up is going to be determined by whoever sets up first, or has better cover - this seems like a balanced dynamic to me. The MG42 is still the vastly superior HMG, especially in 1v1. Maxims still mostly under-perform in all game modes in my opinion, although this is somewhat helped by the recent rifle nade range nerf - which was much needed.
Anyways I hope you take some of what I'm telling you to heart. Nothing I've said has meant to offend, so I apologize if it does. My suggestion to you is to take a step back, realize that there is more to this game that you could learn/improve on and work on becoming a better player.
