Remember that at vet2, grenadiers outrange maxims with riflenades. So you are supposed to move maxims before they even fire one round into grenadiers.
Makes sense. So the new Soviet strategy should be to scout ahead of Maxim with other units to make sure that you can move the Maxim back in time before the
Maxim. Running away from German infantry since 2014.
Now, with the sarcasm out of the way, let's reiterate the suggestions that have been made in this thread:
1. Prevent suppressed units from firing rifle grenades
OR
2. Reduce accuracy of rifle grenades fired from suppression
OR
3. Reduce range of rifle grenades fired from suppression
AND
4. Reduce clumping of Maxim crews to prevent squad wipes with 1-2 rifle grenades
