I never really use it, but was wondering if it's something I should be using.
The only time I do use it is on a minesweeper moving into an area i suspect has mines; as they will auto clear them then

Against many T34s, Pagdpanzer backed by rakkettens in building and some shreks as flank protection, thats your best bet.
For pure cons, Fussilier spam with G43s isnt bad, match them man for man with higher DPS. |
Problem with luchs or puma is the several squads of guards he will usually have.
For that reason, maybe a quick stuka could be better, backed by said rakketens/shreks.
OR,
How about a fast AA HT and be really defensive and careful? So long as you support it against guards he shouldnt have too much before a T34 to bother it? Just dont go anywhere you could get flanked and use your force as a screen. |
Not to mention the puma and jagd fill totally opposite AT roles.
If its true that the puma really is over performing, dont judge it vs a sherman, because it SHOULD counter tanks. Maybe tweak its anti inf power. But not too much. |
Might not be the answer you are looking for, but... sturmtiger?
iS2 is slowish and big, so easier to hit. And sturmtiger works well with defensive units like raketens cos u can strike with the strum then fall back to a defended position which sometimes causes the enemy to try chase it down.
|
Yeah!! Its def useful.
Its easier to hit with than a stuka, and deals much better damage to vehicles.
Use something to scout the FoW and use it at its max range to make it more of a surprise.
I love the fact it can hit HARD, yet is pretty durable. OKW is good at defending, so you can always have a nice spot for it to fall back to and reload.
This unit is soo good at destorying whole units, regularly. |
That bonus is a pretty big deal on maps like semois. |
and 9 times out of 10 with maxim spam your looking at T34s.. so maybe Jagd's are best in most cases so long as you give them a nice base of Rakketens and shreks to protect them. |
like a calliope( non doctinal) as the USF stuka
none doc Calliope? lolol |
Stuka is going to come too late to be your 1st counter to maxims, you will want an ISG, which even that comes kinda late, but if you can hold onto a corner of the map then get a flak HQ to further secure your territory, Obers will kill maxims quite well at max range. |
