I agrre that the Brummbar MUST BE in the Ostheer. However, I do disagree on including Sturmtigers, Sturer Emils and other Uber Tanks. The vehicles that are almost an "obligation" for the Ostheer are, for me, these: Panzer III, Brummbar, Wespe and Elephant.
total agreeance

PE have a massive weakness against vehicles. This is true against all armies and is a deficit in the PE faction design. I personally think marders are absolutely awful so I go T2-4-3 usually, getting AT halfs crossed with shreks in halftracks. It also puts me on an excellent path for Panthers in the long run if I need them.
marders locked down will absolutley destroy russian armor. Its as if they get a special bonus or something? Anyways an unsuspecting is-2 is no match for 2 marders. It will kill him before he even knows where its coming from...........

whatever medium tank we get it needs to be able to stand up against the t-34 both early and late game because im tired of these bs russian tanks
That was a thing most Early-war panzers couldn't do. So, we make the PzIII/IV Avainable Earlier than the T-34 [Maybe T2 with a Fuel-Muntion upgrade to make them?] Late game won't be a problem, Panthers, Tigers, Elefant will stand up to the T-34/85, until they get IS'2.
bingo, i mean panzer IV does really well early to middle game and deal with inf well too but with the t34 upgrade it becomes a joke, with the wehrmact anyway, the panzer with the pe is a joke againt any tank

this is true. However the russian infanrtry is much cheaper than the pe infantry and i agree entirely that the g-41s and mp44s are an amazing beast by themselves. I think this whole thing relys on relys to much on rushing for the assault grenadiers and getting the g41 upgrade that cost 50 munitions a piece. Not to mention if the pe blob was hit my the amazing russian mortars then their would not be much left.
This is a silly statement. The mortar statement is a complete "what if?" and the same could be true for any AOE weapon. Saying that it relies on rushing for their advanced techs is also obvious because that is the way PE is designed to tech. PE can get any 2 of their buildings within 5 minutes. Going straight for your best AI weapons would probably be a sound plan if you were currently being beaten by infantry I would think...
MP44s aren't the only effective weapon against Russians anyway. You could instead go a heavy T2 with luftwaffe, using falls as your mainline infantry (which are cheaper to reinforce than PGs, have better guns and start with 4 men) and use various halftracks to supplement your force. If you reinforce on the field you don't need to give up any land to the Russians. Armoured cars are also excellent against the Russians, so long as you have good micro. A P4 rush can also work.
There are certainly other ways to fight the Russian blob as PE, MP44s are just among the most effective.
I see what you mean entirely however Ive seen russian mortars in actoin and they do scare me. I have lately been playin with pe alot and I do believe I have underestimated their inantry especially the g-43s which seem to have gotten better. Tank wise thoguh the russians have a very huge advantage over pe with tanks if it came don to tank to tank battle. Unless you can prtect your marders then there wont be a problem lol. The panzers though just wont cut it agaisnt is-2s and t34s.....

As far as i know King Tiger Has little measure against infantries getting too close or try to capture it, so I'm suggest that some infantry have the ability to capture armor or emplacement with time as the cost of the work.
...would this even justify hordes of untrained, vodka-swilling and screaming conscripts swarming over my hard-earned Panthers and KT? NOT. 
Amen

in the beginning i find mixing volks with mg42s and some bunkers with medics can hold them off till i can get mortars and flak panzers

the problem with everyones strategy is that massed produced conscripts and later with the added rifles may and will overrun pe infantry especially when their with the more advanced infantry with their smgs and lmgs.
Nothing ingame is more advanced than MP44s and FG42s.
Once you beat a Soviet (1.11 Patch) blob theres no way they can recover becouse their infantry are all dead (no reteat) and youre infantry are veted (MP44 should be veted defensivly).
Reinforceing 3 PE men costs 135MP. Strelky squad costs 280MP.
Just dont run into a russian blob with 1 or 2 squads. PE infantry is the ultimate blob forming unit.

Not to mention their very cheap and very easy to replace with doctrines that benefit them. The pe infantry while very reliable is expensive to make and replace. but The flak 36 will make short work of the russian infantry too....

The reason why i liked the whole no retreat thing is because it made them easier to kill with the mg-42

its really unfair that the soviets can build as many is-2s as they want and 2 bein more than able to take out a king, when we can only get 1 tiger, or 1 king to combat the is-2 not to mention the other 3 tanks they have thats way to beasty. I say panzers, panthers, tigers, and the elefant. Just my thought.....
