What exactly does 1, Hit and Run Do and 2, Is it a free ability? I'm asking because I'm going to make the jump from Axis to Allies after being told that going Asymmetric Warfare is completely fits my playstyle (Volk spam with Fausts or Inf spam ect). So I'm going to take the guys word for it (since I need to learn to how to play allies anyway) and work my way towards it because I love everything in the way of it (the T1>T3) so it would make sense even more to go for this. Just, help

It's basically free assault that pops smoke once it's done throwing the grenades, and can turn into zooksault if used on a vehicle. Oh, and if used on a building it throws a satchel instead.
Yeah, it's getting nerfed soon enough.

Yeaa, if it does come back I think we'll need to go find another lead balance dev, delegating Bob to doing purely the RGD monkey stuff.

Oh wow. That sounds AWESOME ...So its literally a one button does everything thing? So depending on what I click, makes it do different things? How many nades are thrown (2 nades from each guy like a normal assault?), and what about the zooksault? Same idea, different weapon?

This could easily be compared to a Blitz T4 granting all infantry squads a free use of assault on cooldown, that alternated between the regular assault nades vs infantry, faust shots against armor and bundle nades against buildings. Current ability isn't as good as that, but its pretty damn close.
If such a T4 had been proposed publicly, it would have been shot down instantly. I would have personally pushed the retarded T4 economy buffs argument, and that is a complaint that has been aknowledged through the reduction of carabine % bonus.
Internally there were complaints about AW but they got ignored
Hopefully it will be adjusted or removed

I have aysemetric warfare.
Yeah, I get it, you get what could be considered 100munitions worth of upgrades for free on a cooldown, but god dammit is it fucking fun to use.
It's themed, which is why I like it. Not that it's overpowered, but you are getting upgrades for free. It should come with a price cost and be a lower tree T3.

Problem is; abilities from the top list (Doctrine specialisation) aren't supposed to have upgrade costs.

I will join you on your quest Mys Maybe we could join up and show people the meaning of PAIN! But yeah, learning to play allies is...weird. Things always feels different on the otherside. Like, learning that 4 squads of RR's actually take a while to kill RR's, and Wehr MG supression is a bitch. Oh, and having longer range on a mortar sucks when your trying to have mortar v mortar battles. Also need to learn to use AP rounds. I keep forgetting I have them
