Tactics
- Stormtroopers can only be used with the Blitzkrieg Doctrine.
- Camouflage allows the squad to sneak behind enemy defenses and launch surprise attacks. Especially useful against pesky AT guns.
- Use Bundled Stielhandgranate on grouped, idle enemy infantry for massive damage. One of the nastiest tricks in the game is to use this in conjunction with camouflage to clear out British slit trenches (or any other garrisoned structure). Sneak up on the trench/ building and throw a grenade in. While all grenades are useful against garrisoned troops, bundled grenades are not only much more powerful than any other grenades in the game, the stormtroopers using them can stealth for maximum effect.
- Don't drop any Panzerschrecks to enemy hands. Pick up a dropped Panzerschreck at any cost.
- Stormtroopers armed with two Stg 44 upgrades are some of the most powerful anti-infantry units in the game, next to the British commandos and Panzer Elite Luftwaffe fallschrimjaegers
History
Sturmtruppen (Assault Troops) are a generic term given to infantry intended for assaults on enemy positions. The term "Sturm" was also used extensively for Waffen-SS infantry units, and their rank system used the term heavily. It was also used simply for propaganda or morale-boosting purposes, such as renaming an infantry to Sturmgrenadiers (Assault Grenadiers).
The Stormtroopers in Company of Heroes appear to be Waffen-SS infantry (specifically Panzergrenadiers) based upon their camouflage smocks and speech quotes. The Waffen-SS were a military branch of the SS and fought alongside the Heer (Regular Army), and not to be confused with the Gestapo or any other non-military police arm of the Nazi party.
