There is already a pay-off. Jaegers, unlike other squads, do less damage to the unit the closer they are to them.

What are you talking about? To my knowledge they use Grenadier Kar, so they have a normal damage profile. Only the single G43 performs as you say and that is only once upgraded. So even without the upgrade they get excellent starting target size at .8, Gren guns, camo, ambush bonus, vision and two free weapon slots which are not used even when upgraded.

The damage threshold for JLI sniping should be on par with pathfinders. Also, why they get the sprint? I think sector assault should have less area denial, but not much. on 1v1 without any AA, it is painful.

Their damage threshold isn’t the only difference. JLI also get acc bonus vs cover and amazing acc from 25-35. Both units get maximum 40 range but JLI sniper can’t miss a shot against Soviet units without some type of ability or Guards rifle are behind green cover so it drops to about 94% chance. The only Allied Infantry that has less than 90% chance out of cover to get hit is rangers. Every other short range squad going to at minimum lose 1 model on approach if it has taken any damage and sprint can be used to reposition. The entire design makes no sense.

airborne and overwatch both need tuning.
i feel overwatch has better synergy with stock OKW units, compared to airborne/USF.
JLI+Obers is very comparable to paths/paras. But one needs to sink in huge amounts of muni and manpower in airborne to make it work proper, while overwatch pretty much has what it needs from the start.
perhaps JLI needs an upgrade barrier,like 60 muni for sniping and cloak, to even out the spam.
-goliaths are only an issue when smoked in towards an emplacement.
-For the fatherland is a bonus, but not anything great.
-105 lefh is nice
-sector assault feels strong for sure, is it stronger than its peers? or is it just a copy when it comes to DMG? as allied tanks have less HP?

nerf JLI/paths by max 1-2 units on field, and give upgrade barrier to JLI.
im on the fence regarding sector assault, some commanders always end up on bottom/top no matter what balance department does.

I would hope Overwatch has better synergy, 2 of Airbornes abilities are literally access to stock units while everything in Overwatch is a bonus. How much of a bonus depends on game mode and play style.

JLI already have the sniper gated behind muni and tech. Paths would probably need a buff to JLI performance if they are locked to one squad.

According to COH2 ability guide For the Fatherland gives -35% received accuracy. That is amazing, give that to USF/SOVIETS and blobs of death would ensue. For the fatherland doesn't feel as strong as it should since JLI/Obers have the same weakness of small squad size vs late game explosives so you might as well save the muni for Sector Assault.

I am not sure how Sector Assault compares to UKF planes but its strength comes from the overall situation caused by the rest of the commander. Someone correct me if I am wrong but no other faction gets elite inf/howitzer/loiter/HT as part of a line up in a match.

JLI have great camo so they can be used to spot for the planes. Howitzers can punish blobs, emplacements, base sector and the Loiter can be used defensively if you are caught out of position or offensively to break enemy lines. Stock KT along with spearhead mode is probably the strongest heavy tank in the game.

Aside from matching up well against Tommies and countering snipers, how do they counter multiple builds and an entire faction?

My best guess is he is talking about the cover acc. As tommies are supposed to play behind cover and play a more defensive style it negates their whole reason for being. AssT wont do as well as JLI vision will allow for counter play along with a model loss or 2 on a approach. I would assume the same thing with raid sections but using their mines on usual cover points should help out a lot. Can't speak for the rest of the faction as I never play it.

I have a question.
Everytime i face soviet, they pick a 120mm doctrine.
Why is that?

If you are asking seriously:
One has guards/mark target/T3485/crew repairs depending on situation or play style the 120mm is the weakest part.

The other also has AT overwatch and the DSHKA, AT overwatch is strong enough to warrant the pick on its own and great mg back up by OP mortar pushes it to be a staple amongst most game modes.

The last one you probably hardly ever see as shocks are great but playstyle/map dependent and the arty is great against OKW but lack luster against OST unless there are arty/Pak43.
