The only type of conblob that doesnt completely suck hard is if you give all of them SVT rifles... and I see this commander maybe in 1 out of 10 games. So no not really

Not even close mate, conscripts are garbage at moving accuracy.

The only units worth blobing are BARs-Riflemen, Penals, Panzer Grenadiers and g43s-Panzerfusilliers.

Just to add, when you got 50 conscript soldiers in a blob. Conscripts win.

And they don’t have the dps to snipe the gunner reliably

Cons are probably the least blobbable unit in the game owing to their lack of a weapon upgrade

Permanently Banned
Title should be the spam unit of 2020. Cons are best used spread out but in supporting range like all mainlines. Rifle/IS are better at blobbing cuz lmg upgrades so they can just focus fire and mow down a particular squad of their liking (ie. Who needs to flank when u can just basically instagib the HMG gunner with an lmg blob)

I use IS squads and give them all piats and bren (sometimes vickers i feel like they are better) i normally give them weapons when i hit 500 munition and this is something that happens i never intend to do it lol and sometimes i go 2 piats on some squads for ekstra firepower at tanks this can easily take down tanks and because im british i have a field base so when a squad gets to 2 people left then ill retreat so they can reinforce the reason so is so they can make it back (i once got a panserschreck from a retreating 1 man squad)

Tommies are kind of the worst squads to put PIATs on because of the out of cover reload penalty though.

That isn't true, some fractions lack on counters, some have their tools early enough to handle it to bleed the blobb.

The main-problem are mechanics like old Volksgrenadiere, called in German Eierlegendewollmilchsau (egg-laying wool milk pig) have good DPS versus everything while having enough men to stay ground or having unbalanced game-mechanics making blobbing woth it. (like having AT weapons and a snare -> *hust* looking at some fractions).

-> I call that bad fraction-design.

Vet 3 cons get an insane accuracy bonus IIRC
like 60% or something scary like that

50.
They do get hefty rec acc tho and vet2 vs vet3 of any unit will also heavily skew the outcome towards vet3.
