yeah german snipers are so powerful and annoying to soviet players if the guy is halfway decent at keeping him alive. i find the best thing to counter them is the Zis gun. Its good since it has the barrage ability which has a decent range and will kill sniper in probably one of the first shots. Mortars are decent too especially the heavy mortar but they are hit or miss (literally) and usually take a good while to kill the sniper. Also any vehicle ofcourse.
LMAO @ both of them really but the german one especially.
Its like they thought "okay guys what can we do to make the most hilariously overpowered commander in the game and put it in the store... hmmm okay purchasable veterancy, yes good idea! hmmmm what are some of the best commander abilities already avaliable... OH YES YES panzer tactician and jeager infantry upgrade, awesome throw them BOTH in there with it. hmmm now how can we top this off...? OH NICE YES LETS MAKE A PURCHASABLE VET 3 TIGER TANK CALL IN. MUAHAHAHAHAHA SPLENDID!.................. then... when its all said and done and a few weeks after we cash in on everyone buying this commander, we will nerf it to the ground to save our game, then make another one in a couple months, hell yeah geniouses! NO one has ever thought of this before i bet!!" all this in conspiring Mr. Burnes voice (from the Simpsons)
start at 1 hour in to hear the official red army decree
'The hour of revenge has struck,
do not count days,
do not count miles,
count only the number of Germans you have killed
Kill the German
this is the cry of your Russian Earth,
Kill the German'
those soviets were PISSED!
crazy shit.
Do your Soviet faction honor, against suspected LMG gren spam or Assgrens, build T2 immediately with your engineer while you make one conscript squad. This will slow your map control but soviets have the upper hand here anyway, the worst that will happen is you will be on even terms with the germans. Use your conscript to start capping and you engineer as well once the building is complete. Then start making maxims. Our conscripts are too weak and thier upgrades cost too much fuel to slow us down. Make 2-3 maxims then make another conscript squad and research the AT nade if need be, or, if not taking any loses and can afford the manpower, make an AT gun instead to speed up your tank production. Lock down your side of the map and your fuel point immediately, take advantage of your maxims extremely quick set up and surpression time. It suppresses multiple squads faster and at greater range than the MG42 now. Keep the german grens at bay with these as your conscripts cap the map and back them up. Once you have the fuel, go for the quick t70 or if things arent going as planned, skip the t70 and go straight for t34. If your opponent decides to waste the fuel and munitions on a flame halftrack or scout cars, call in the Gaurds Rifles to keep them at bay until your tanks come out. Spam the t34's to death, keep 3 maxims and 2 conscripts on field at all times. Win the game. Make an AT gun if needed, use ram every single time you can against german armor. For the Red Army!
informative video of the rise of the third reich from the eyes of germans, without allied bias. (somewhat)
hate em or not they were the most powerful and sophisticated army the world had ever seen. Kind of like America today...
Whats crazy is about at 27:00 mins in, it goes into how the German parlament was burnt down, and the government blamed communists (terrorists), and invented the threat. And used it to pass laws that they can now tap phones, open letters, and invade privacy........
...... just like today...... in america... The NSA.
all so familiar.
I just cant beleive the parts about how they were breeding the children in the youth camps and making the arian super race... and sterilizing all non arians in germany.
is it too late to sign up/participate in the first cup already? date says it was the 20th of october but you can still sign up on the site, idk if its already been done tho.
A maxim spam --> quick t70 or t34 strat ive been using lately as soviets. Tired of how bad conscripts are against LMG grens or Assgrens so started using this and trying to perfect it. Works pretty well.
This game is between two decently ranked players. I think Immortal is ranked around 100-200? Anyway GG and quick watch.
