You could try playing as British, the officer radius is small, it forces you to blob

they can kill falmmenwerfer in a few seconds, also they have some kind of good suppresion resisntece + fireup + the best infatry weapons + captains leutenants etc...
actually, british infatry blob is by far the best british strategy.

He's right, shreck blobs are annoying. Offmaps on both sides stop blobbing to be honest.
Two things are encouraging blobs atm:
Lack of on map artillery (often)
- lack of resources makes costly artillery less common
Lack of RB's (resource bonus's)
- Inability to customise more completely leads to exaggerations of more cost effective strategies, more unique strategies often require more of a specific resource, as a result blobbing too becomes effective.
Lack of off map artillery
- Speaks for itself, the fear that death could rain on you at any moment tends to make one spread out. Since off-maps are gone, the quality of axis opponents/allies has deteriorated substantially.
And if you need help against blobs as a wehrmacht player...really cry more. Nebelwerfer, stukka, mortar, hmg, kch, ostwind, p4 etc etc etc. So many options, so so many.

oh noes, blobbing!!! you mean one of the major mechanics of coh since its inception somehow made it into a mod...if you're having issues with it, find a way to counter it, seriously. Its so easy for an axis player to try and say "stop blobbing" when they've got way more units to do "combined arms" with. The allies, both factions, must blob sometimes, its the way that their units can be most effective, especially tommies.

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

Tommies are just as easilly suppressed as any other infantry.

I would LOVE to see you try to play brits if you actually think this combination of units is effective...

What's the difference between a tommy blob and any other blob? Lots of people blob, the problem isn't the unit, it's the people playing.

Blobbing is getting stupid since all the brits do is spam infantry. Kinda getting old fast.
Don't come up with stupid "try countering it". You can't counter 500 units charging down a road with heroic charge.
Try using MG's jus get ran past and killed from behind. Same with any other infantry unit. Even the KCH and Stormtroopers and Grendiers with MP40/44s can't stop it. All way to stop it is with tank and they get buttoned by the bren then out of no where comes the "tank" spam.
"Hint" Let us snipe the LT n CPT as a counter measure. At the moment it takes 2-4 hit with a sniper to kill them.
