As someone who got tired of going T2-T3 i´ll tell you a couple of things.

With Guards Motor (T34-85s call in)

-Option 1: Check "Akosi" strat or sniper spam.
A) Con Con T1 Sniper sniper
B) Sniper sniper - Sniper/Guard/Con AT nade

You may use similar variations but it goes around doing hard mp damage, getting couple of cons for AT nade any AC/FHT or guards and waiting till you get T3485s. Mark vehicle any T3 unit to quickly gain domination of the map.
You can also fill a 120mm if mortar spam.

2- 3xCons
A) Retreat CE - ScoutCar - Penal/sniper - Guards
B) CE - 2x ScoutCar - Guard - Sniper

On both cases if you really fall behind on denying fuel to your opponent or dealing MP drain, you should get T2 for Zis or you can always backtech into T2 if you need extra AT.

Without Guard Motor
3- Any of the strats before but teching into T4 Su85 or if you are a bit more hipster and need some early AT Su76 (if you can manage to use them).

To be fair this is a tongue and cheek response and to buy 4 commanders is $20, which is quite a bit.

I do agree that there has been a lot of complaining about DLC material, but I think its fair. The customer did not want the game to be implemented this way and they are voicing their concern.

Your currency
For some people you need to multiply that number by 10 (Third world problems)

Live and let other live.

PD: why can´t we just take the best of both worlds?

As RU:

-Why not filling some scoutcar into any of the strats? I feel like a quick 3rd sniper is a bit of an overkill and on that moment you stale a bit for the 1 CP to hit till you get your first Guard.
It adds an extra layer of micro to manage but it helps to easily deal with either 222 or FHT an also lets you quickly harass/chase retreating squads or support weapons.

As OH:

1st part: dealing with sniper early-midgame. First of all, dont drain MP. Retreat/softretreat and dont engage unless you know you can chase them and get a retreat/kill.
If you manage to get the early retreat/kill be as offensive as possible. This will prevent any offensive mining.

4 T1 units at best (5 if you go for a mortar. Pray the RNG gods)


Midgame aproach: if you go for the AC dont show it inmediatly. Go for the flank n dont overcomit on the chase (if it stays alive it will keep being a menace during the game).

2nd part: dealing with T34-85s.
-If you go for quick Ostwind you need to be extra carefull with the CPs. If you dont deal damamge you are going to be on a pretty hard situation. Since your next unit is going to probably be a P4 take in mind you need 2 extra AT (either double pak or adding some PG shreck).
-Going P4 first its more safe. Once you are near 6-7CP get a Stug + Pak. How you deal with the first Mark Target n rush from the T34-85s is key.

Lategame: if you manage to deal or trade with the T348s you are fine. You can either keep P4spam n get him off map, try to tech (this will roughly give you an edge if the game goes for a really long time, since you can try to filter n Panzewerfer into your army) or get a Tiger (micro friendly).

Commanderchoice:
-Lighting: G43-Sprint-Tiger. Push with 2-3 grens together. Ignore any other infantry besides snipers.
-Pak43: more defensive mindset for midlate game. 120mm is going to hurt you nevertheless.
-Elite: sigh. Vetted Stug with weakpoint are quite cost effective against T34-85s.

But i can see the average player having trouble with the "unkillable" anti-everything blob of doom.

Barely this with a little fix.

The same can be said for grens getting mowed by 1cp 440 mp doctrinal elite infantry ... But for some reason that sparks a huge QQ thread. Both pgrens and shocks need to be dealt with properly or they will face roll. However I find pgrens a little harder to deal with because you can't just go after them with vehicles because they can become the best AT infantry in game with the click of a butolton (assuming of course that the resources are there).

1- The problem is not the power of the unit, is the quick arrival of it
2- PG shrecks are just a support AT unit unless inside a building. You can kit them pretty effectively. If they ONLY chase you with 1 PG, you can safely eat the first salvo with your T34 and go for the crush. If they guy losses 2 guys he inmediatly need to retreat for the danger of losing n dropping the weapons.

Pgrens can also shoot all Russian Armor (cept IS-2).

SU76 can outrange all german tanks (cept Elephant). So? Going Shrecks is for support AT for a Pak/P4/Stug. Theres little reason to use it as a frontline unit.

Are you hinting at the possibility that mines under certain circumstances may be worth it?

30 muni hitting anything besides 1 pio is always worthy. With 2 kills you are assuring a retreat unit (what generally happens).

as long as there is this huge disparity in the dps of rifles and smg and it isnt hard for squads to close in, they will always faceroll rifle infantry.

BINGO!!
