And the speed and health now even not low enough for Allies players?
Really?
It shouldn't be a viable tactic at all. I personally know how to counter it, like I said I keep my squads together/close early and leap frog/keep range if I think the opponnent is even gonna try it.
But the fact it can be done isn't right. Its a free unit, even if you lose it, the 3 minutes you are waiting for the next one in the first 5 minutes of a match is next to meaningless since T1 units are all you need at this time.
e: I strongly disagree with your post below but whatever, I'll agree to disagree. Despite the fact losing the first truck probably gets you faster to 1 CP and calling in MG34s and backing up with volks/raketens for AT.
