Cant freaking wait

@Caeltos and with what can germans counter early penals? With cookies+milk strat... havent rly tried that tbh
Srsly if penals were stronger+cheaper i dont see any way of countering them, sniper is 360 and has slow ROF , and dies quickly if seen by penals
Srsly soviets dont need more early strong units , how about early penals + shocks , make shocks 400mp right?

I support Riggsen proposition

Good list of units you listed there, only thing I find missing is the su 76. That thing is only useful for its barrage. armour is terrible

Well SU-76 is pretty useful against light vehicles, its awesome support weapon, it takes out crew weapons nicely , it costs 55 fuel what u expect?
Imo its great i always use it as soviet when going tier 4

My best advice is to listen to veterans , experts and those who rly know their bussines (hope some post reply here)... other is to watch streams and analyze replays. Ostheer require combined arms and require much attention cuz squads can be lost easly (4 man squad) due to molotovs, Hit the dirt, nades etc.
Best way to deal with SU-85 imo is to upgrade panzer grenadiers with shrecks, make PAK, and try to flank that SU-85 with panzer4 using blitzkrieg(vet 1 ability) or smoke canister (commander ability, 1CP).

-If you are really certan that there iss one SU-85 and u have blitz with your panzer4 you can easly outflank him (if there are no guards around to button you) just micro around and try to block his reverse by driving right behind him
-If there are 2 SU-85 best way is combined panzer grenadiers+Shrecks and pak with ofc some help from panzer4 if u have one (but SU-85 wont hurt ur panzergrenadiers that much)
Also teller mine is really good , u can either plant it on brigdes, crossroads or u can predict where enemy tank will roll out when he comes to fronline, also u can lure him in by going reverse and soviet will probably try to chase down ur panzer4 with SU-85(cuz greater range +sight ability) and after he detonates that awesome mine u can roll in and get him
Be sure to use panzerfaust on SU-85 it will cripple his mobility and then flank with panzer4 but try to come from his side (avoid going straight to his face hopping u will flank in time )If u see early in game that soviet are going SU-85s , if u have 1-2 tank dont make anymore since fighting fire with fire is not recommended

Considering the fuel handling , u can make extra mg42 for holding it
Upgrading your grenadier team with LMG is also viable due to its high dmg...
I tend to make halftrack ,if u upgrade flamer its great for protecting ur fuel and territory with it but be careful from guards and AT nades (dont rly rambo , but try to keep firing distance and reverse if u see him charging for ur hf)
Or if halftrack is not upgraded u can always pick up grenadiers or panzer grenadiers and bring them to wanted fuel point while halftrack supports with mg while reinforcing lost troops, should take care of it
If enemy defends with maxim, AT guns and snipers, make mortar or even better mortar halftrack (much more mobility and nice incendiary ability)
Try to always keep an eye for that fuel, and if u see opportunity and are having extra infantry squad go decap enemy fuel point or cut off strategic point connecting his fuel to base
Another hopefully helpful tip is to predict from where your enemy will come and with what troops (guess by time of game, analying how much troops he could have made , guess his overall fuel income for enemy vehicles and etc.)

U didnt play CoH for couple of years and it usually it takes some time getting in shape , and also transition from CoH to CoH2 takes getting used to
So keep practicing, dont forget to watch streams and replays and visiting forums for updating your strategy and picking few new ones!!
Cheers

take a look at faces of german medics! Its gruesome
