Demos are flat out one of the worst and retarded mechanics in the game for the simple reason that there is so little counterplay to them, and that they can decide the game in one fell swoop for 90 munis, and I say that as a fanatical demo user.

I'll repeat: If you blob, you deserve the wipe.

We do have counter play for Demos, minesweepers. This might sounds odd, Whermacht/OKW has to adjust their strategy with infantry pushes supported via mine sweepers. CAS has no counter play what so ever, but that is another topic.

I'll rather have it reduce munition cost and allow some counterplay (ala S-Mine field) or having it reworked and give the Soviets some late game scaling munition dumps.

I myself bought 14 OKW factions during a Steam sale last year for alt accounts

This may be hard for some of you to understand, but demos actually (imho) encourage blobbing because you can protect your whole army from demos with 1 minesweeper. If you didnt blob you would need to buy a sweeper for every unit that moves on its own.

Yep, that's sadly the truth. However relic won't remove units/abilites from the game, so we better just deal with it.

They don't have to remove it completely. They could just turn it into the paratroopers version: A cheaper demo that works on a timer instead of remote activation. This way they can still be used to blow up bridges, key buildings or defensive structures, but can no longer be used for easy no-skill wipes.

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

You'd just see three times as much mines then.
Soviets have literally nothing to spend muni on and doctrinal options are either, cheap, broken UP to the point of no one using them(IL-2 loiter anyone?) or super expensive and non valid at all in vast majority of situations(bombing run, button, prop arty, booby trap).
All factions have potent muni upgrades on both, infantry and armor.
Soviets have what? Flamer and Quad. ZiS barrage? Not really.
Demos(and mines) are being spammed all over the place, because there is no other way to not have 500+ muni flloat as soviets.
