Axis infantry and bridge demolition

I feel axis infantry cannot effectively destroy bridges (as they lack demolition or satchel charges).

Currently the best way to destroy a bridge is by attacking ground with a tank, however, all races can do this and it is only the axis infinity that cannot plant charges.

This could be over come by giving axis infantry the ability to purchase demolitions. Maybe just a kit that could only be used on bridges.

If you have any tips on how axis infantry can blow bridges please let me know as I would appreciate any advice on the topic.

I always found it funny that the Germans are supposed to be the more defensive faction yet they can't blow bridges while the Allies who are more offensive oriented are able to do so.

Plant 10 Tellermines on the bridge and bomb them with 3 Stuka zu Fuß

A single tellermine plus riflenade will demolish any bridge that goes down to a single demolition charge, as the teller combo actually does more damage.

If you're OKW, just stuka to fuss or sturmtiger them.

Well everybody knew in 44/45 Germans were desperately trying to preserve their Rhein bridges, while the US Forces were mercilessly trying to destroy them to hinder their advance into the Third Reich.

Well at least what I suggested was for Ost though.
