Played against his PE yesterday. I don't play as PE so I really don't understand the timing, teching, game sense etc. so i don't want to say for sure, but there were definitely a couple sus moments because of the exact timing of what I was doing in FOW and how he reacted. I'll try and make a video about it but was curious if anyone else had any hunches first. Don't want to turn into a witch hunt because I'm not totally convinced, but more importantly, like I said, I don't play PE so some of this might be part of the usual play style, tactics, etc.
I was playing typical Bullet proof strat on Langres. I'd say I had a pretty good early game. Held 2 fuel points, he never cut me off for more than 10 secs. Both of us had great unit pres. No units were lost until like 14 minute mark. He went 5 PG - 2 Ac - mortar
1. About 9 minute mark, he tries to do a base scout with AC and Ketten. He doesn't spot my SY because it's way in the back, but immediately starts upgrading shrek on a PG unit. I could say it was somewhat understandable because he didn't see any tech from me all game except triage, so I would chalk the first one up to being cautious and getting ready. But then 30 secs later, I started building TD and almost instantly he starts shrek to 2nd PG. Extra cautious? Normal PE play if you don't see tech from US player, etc? to have 2 shrek squads?
2. About 10 minute mark, he had been aggressive with ACs all game long. Advances on 3 of my units which I was using to bait him into a mine. He approached with AC and 2 or 3 PGs. Parked very close to mine and stopped advancing. He was in middle of pumping out a 2nd AC, as soon as it deployed a few seconds later, he instantly tech'd field craft. Once Field Craft was finished teching, he then shot the mine, and then advanced on my units and other points. BTW this was only mine I had placed. And my tank or tank tech had not been revealed yet. If you were worried about my tech (having built already 2 shrek squads), is Field Craft normal tech before I reveal?
3. Mortar half track. Usual OP BS LOL, so some mega hits. A few times shells were in the air the second my units came out of FOW. I'll chalk up most of these to him having good micro and some game sense of obvious pathing of where my units might be. The last one though was a bit sus in that he did a fire barrage in my base on a FOW unit. It was pretty much at end of game, so maybe he had munis to spare and was going for kill, but again, since I don't play PE, is this something you would do - put down a blind fire barrage into the base? It was right in front of my HQ, so normal place for me to be reinforcing etc. but he had no idea I had a unit there.

Hello buddy, if you upload the replay i think it will be easier to track these suspicious moments that you comment about. Personally, i've not faced this player much in my coh history. When we did i didn't notice any weird movements, but it was long ago since we last played. Cheers!

Re: Snk12Hd
thank you for this. After re-reading my post, maybe I'm getting ahead of myself. Was more of a suspicious feeling than a definitely he is cheating kind of thing. Like I said, I don't play PE and most of what I noted is related to timing, game sense, etc. So maybe there is logical explanation.
My post was more to feel out if others were starting to sense something might be off. I remember the crazy game Statement played against him, he was Brit and Snk was Wehr. A few times, a single shreked gren squad went behind enemy lines and appeared from nowhere to kill off trucks, emplacements, etc. The timing was interesting as he was very behind, so I don't know it makes sense to separate your units. But maybe he was being very aggressive as a last hope kind of thing. Again, that by itself is nothing too crazy or proof of cheating, but if there's a lot of other instances like this from many other players, it starts to build a case.
I keep trying to add replay as attachment, but I'm getting an error. If I figure it out, I'll post here later.
