The MG Team is espacially effective for defending your base. These units can entranch and thus take less damage. In offensive situations I only use a few of them and only for mowing down enemies who have a short range (Like the flamethrower unit).
Overall I would say they are worth what you pay and they excel in defending your base when entranched. A couple of them is nearly equal to a French pillbox. (Nearly)

If you are making a battlefield of trenches, then the MG team is what you first look upon (or the german gun team with triggers). To hell with nationality of the units.

Well I concur vs france you would be better off making siege, thats how I beat them back, VMG build to slow to be effective, and cost wise severly lose to the cheaper flamers, they are a good support unit vs france, but not a unit you can count on. Vs other civs they are very effective, but still better off as a support unit, your monies are better spent else where.

Flamethrowers are cheap for a reason- tanks kill them so quickly that they are only valuable against noobs. Vickers mg teams are also excellent with the mass production, however it is funny how bad they are when you see how good mg42 teams of Germany can be.

By the way, the USA is best used with huge numbers of infantry plus AT to take out tanks. With large numbers of infantry and ambulance/AT the USa is almost unstoppable

Apparently killanoob, you do not realize that any USA army is owned by planes, because the USA has no mobile AA remember?
