Alot of people in the multiplayer are playing the soviets against the Wehrmacht--i decided to go the other way. Basically I found that on an open map--russians crush them. The wehr cannot get up enough points and men to make a push or even stand their ground. On a bridged map, its the old block and hold until you get up the men and equipment.
Well today I did it.. I played the Kursk map 2v2 2 russians against 2 wehrmacht and we won. Not that it is a big deal but it was very frustrating getting kiled all the time. I never got to Battle phase and had no armor, while my partner had a king tiger towards the end. I started with mg, sniper,mg sniper, then volk, volk ,volk and finally had the assault squad come in at the very end(used the middle tier--sorry escapes me at the moment). Just wanted to let you know that it is possible , but it depends on the map for sure!!

it depends on russian play-style too, there're pretty much guys who test and produce every unit :P
btw after talks about russians OP its nice to hear.
balance balance and more balance!
p.s. today i played v1.01 and amazed, it damned cool in short time release the fix of some balance issues

Ironically Kursk is the best straight-infantry map due to lack of any mun/fuel. Because the Soviets have access to artillery (through Command Squad), you gotta be on the ball with the retreat button.

Agreeing with Prove here. 1.01 fix a lot of the issues. At his point, its all about tweaking a few things and the Ostheer can start rolling out
