I remember in the older mod versions a good song which isnt there in the newer versions of the mod.The song tune seemed like it was sad but it had a distinct humming kind of tune.It ended on a positive note and there was an instrument being played.Does anyone remember it? It would be really helpful if anyone can find this song.

if you consider with snipers around.you just need to kill 1 of the pio and he has to retreat.but with ingery since its a 4 man squad.it would be problem.

actually kt is slightly better then is3.is2 could knock out a non vet panther.but vet2 panther and is2 are almost at same level.

this is a strategy i would follow as a wehr player.
get two pio to cap and build wehr quarters.one volks to cap and fight infantry,mg42 or volks will be second squad.if i don't have enough fuel another volks or a bike.
now i go t2.get a mortor or a pak depending on the scenario next get grenadiers.i can get one or two of them depending on the ops i have built.if i take blitz doctrine i can get storms.now shrek upgrades if i see a t-90s,t-70s.if i see infantry mg42.
next i go for panzer command panther if i see t-34s.now in this scenario Russian player has to get at upgrades as he wont have enough resources to build an is2.in this case either kch or vetrancy for grenadiers.he would get red banner sterelky to beat grenadiers.so he will be short of fuel to get guards upgrades.
if i see mass russian infantry of p4s or ostwind.since i have infantry to support it against tank hunters and at gun.in this scenario the Russian player would've spent a lot on his infantry upgrades munitions wise.and he might not have enough to upgrade for at guns or tank hunters.
i haven't tried is2 against entrenched positions or tigers i will check it. if it fares well in these scenarios then yeah the game is pretty balanced.

you go for a at gun.but you need the zis and tank hunter upgrades to beat a panther.you will have to sacrifice on sterleky upgrades and shock guard upgrade.but with his infantry of grens he can get vet for them and easily kill your at gun and tank hunter.

I'm not sure of the exact prices for Soviet tech so correct me if I'm wrong, but to unlock the IS-2 you need the light and heavy tankovy upgrades, right? And to unlock the T-34/85 you need the heavy tankovy upgrade and the 85mm gun upgrade from the armoury. I think the 85mm gun upgrade is more expensive than the light tankovy upgrade, so it's actually cheaper to unlock IS-2s than T-34/85s. That seems about right.
I got to admit I haven't used the IS-2. When I find myself with that much fuel I just get T-34/85s. And if your Wehrmacht opponent is able to rush to vehicles as well as buying vet then he has a hell of a lot of fuel points and you shouldn't be trying to get your own vehicles anyway.
is2 is good against a panther one on one,but it wont fare well against a vet 2 panther.as mentioned the wehr player will have grenadiers with shreks and paks as backup.with these he can easily beat an is2 and base rush.
And this doesn't mean anything. The vet 2 panther supported by grenadiers with schreks and paks will defeat an IS-2? So what, are you saying it shouldn't? Why is the IS-2 unsupported?
if he ops one or more fuel sectors.he will get a resource bonus.since there op costs 200 manpower,whereas russian op is 250. if you spam t-34s he can use panthers agaisnt them.i know that is2 should be supported by infantry but they are better with there upgrades.guards are good but by that time he will have kch. im not emphasizing on my suggestion.i just want the modders to consider such a scenario.

but in most maps,there are usually five fuel sectors with one being 16 fuel other being 6 fuel.now if he controls two of them and ops one of them because he has extra manpower skipping t2.there is an addition of 10 fuel.the point in skipping t3 is to create a defensive line.im not saying about building bunkers or wires.you can use a mobile force to defend like a force of grenadiers,paks and volks.bikes against ingery.the situation is aggravated in 2vs2.where one player can go t4.while other keeps pressure using all tier units.

my concern is its faster to build a panther,actually you can get a vet2 panther faster then an is2.
suppose the wehr player skips t3 and goes directly to t4.
i have divided the panther fuel cost as follows
skirmish phase 35 fuel
krieg barracks 25 fuel
assault phase 50 fuel
battle phase 50 fuel
panzer command 50 fuel
building a panther 110 fuel.
the wehr palyer gets an initial fuel of 20
15 fuel is spent on wher quarters
wher player will have an extra 5 fuel.
so the total is 320-5(initial extra)= 315 fuel.
i have divided for is2 fuel cost below
tankhall 55 fuel
light tankovy upgrade 55 fuel
heavy tankovy upgrade 80 fuel
close range support 35 fuel
medium range support 35 fuel
is2 135 fuel
total cost of is2 will be 395 fuel.
this is ideal condition where you don't spend any fuel in armoury.
the difference is almost 395-315=80 fuel
you might think that instead we should go for t-34,t-90,t-70 but the strategy of skipping t3 is to hold you're line with grenadiers and paks.if blitz doc then storms.you can get shreks or mp44 or mg42 upgrade to hold out against infantry and tanks and then go full offensive with t4 tanks and kch against infantry.
suppose we get tank hunter and zis upgrade then we will waste 80 fuel.he can get vets for both his infantry and tanks and if he sees tank hunters and zis he will use his infantry to beat them and get infantry vet.if we get infantry upgrades he can use the panther,p4s to kill infantry. we can not roll out is2 cause we have to get upgrades for infantry like sterlky and guards which is another 100 fuel.there is no way to roll out an is2.
t-34/76 and t-34/85 are not as good as is2 against panther i have checked it t-34/76 can reduce the panther's health by a fraction in a one on one battle.
t-34/85 is better it can reduce it to half health in a one on one battle.
is2 is good against a panther one on one,but it wont fare well against a vet 2 panther.as mentioned the wehr player will have grenadiers with shreks and paks as backup.with these he can easily beat an is2 and base rush.
i suggest that the armoury upgrades be changed with tank hunters and zis2 requiring manpower+fuel.
shock guards and red banner requiring manpower+munitions.
i love to play as Russians but for some reason most of the time they seem to suffer from a resource shortage (fuel and munitions).

your first question was asking how to counter panzer grens. if you want to take on ac's, i think that the t-70 is better vs light vehicles.
why does it mention in game that t-90 is good against light vehciles and infantry.

i played with t-90s.tried it against ai and even human players. it doesn't damage pe vehicles.is it a bug?

i agree mines,dugout are good when being defensive.but i want an offensive unit.i tried t-90 but it sucks it pins them but for some reason it cant hurt the armoured car or scout car of pe it can only damage kettenkart.i watched it shoot an armoured cars but it couldn't even decrease the health of the ac.snipers are good but if the pe player has too many pg squads its no use.
