Title: Descorver-er unit
Post by: Polkovnik_Petr on January 20, 2010, 04:34:32 AM: Just curious, the US have the jeep, the Wehrmacht have the motorcycle (or schwimmwagan), the PE have the Kettenkrad (also or schwimmwagen) to discover enemy snipers. What do the Soviets have?

Post by: Newcomer on January 20, 2010, 04:40:32 AM: methinks the conscripts, what better way to spot snipers than being bait?

Honestly though, perhaps the soviet command squad or the light tank?

Post by: ford_prefect on January 20, 2010, 04:42:12 AM: eight conscripts ;D ;D
I charge a sniper with American infantry may loose 1 or 2 or 3 but in the end I get him. So why not with Soviet conscripts!

Post by: Loupblanc on January 20, 2010, 09:42:05 AM: Well soviets have to retain *A* vulnerability to snipers,
SOMEHOW... Me thinks it's not by amount of kills that
german snipers would be feared here :)

Thus, as rear scouting, picking off the AT guns, Mortars...

Post by: WartyX on January 20, 2010, 10:06:54 AM: The sheer size of Soviet infantry squads means that they are most effective at countering Wehrmacht Snipers.

Post by: Crowsabove on January 20, 2010, 01:03:42 PM: my guess is youd want to keep your command squad away from them above all. be nice if the downside of not being able to cloak for the sharpshooter team was a large detection radius. but theyve got quite a few ablities already. Conscript bait it is :D
