Oh don't worry about that, due to cost, time to build and T1 cost you will always have better field presence.

And no, it will not beat LMG gren. It could if 0 models died, but it will loose models rapidly, loosing dps just as fast.


i dont have time to argue with you, it wont MVGAME (and pros usually put penals in m3 to be more efficient for this reason)

I don't see a reason why I would want penals in M3 over CEs with flamers.

sigh, dont upgrade flame. and reason is, you wont lose models while the penal dmg output is still high at long range

+ you can go baserape and use demo, or flank hmg etc...

6 DPS is hardly high.
But if you take conscripts or weapon crewes additional models as a comparison base to say its high, they maybe you're right.

This forum needs a psychedelic drug limit before posting.

Bunch of theory crafters up in here. Penals have a ton of potential, it is entirely in how you use them. No other infantry in the game is capable of pulling a move like that. Seems that most of the posters on this forum actually disdain the 'S' in RTS and would prefer to cry op/up and compare numbers instead of trying to outplay their opponent.

Great.
Can I exchange that potential for actual unit usefulness?

Even friggin Osttruppen have a clear role and they do it well.

That's a question you need to ask your self, can you? I'm guessing no.
