Why are people hating on Riflemen so much? They literally melt to obersoldaten, regardless of vet, yet people still call for nerfs.
Yes, Obersoldaten need a nerf too. Just because OKW has ridiculous infantry doesn't mean that riflemen are balanced. Plus riflemen being so dominating early game leads to far bigger balance problems in 1vs1 than the obersoldaten purely because of when they come onto the field.
Problem with USA is that it's very much a one trick faction right now. If/when the AA HT rush gets fixed, volley fire gets changed to single target and riflemen (&lieutenant) are made to perform more to cost, I'm not sure how exactly USA is supposed to actually win after the first few engagements where they can outnumber their opponent easily. Their AT gun is bad, the infantry howitzer is bad, their tanks are bad, they have no snipers (pathfinders really don't count), they have no non-doctrinal mines on infantry. Their light vehicles are pretty good (Stuart, M8H, M20), but those aren't going to win games in the long run especially when their atgun can't realistically hold off tanks due to the bad penetration on it.
