As many as you want under this mathematical condition:
Penals=<0
Penals=<0
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.

Hi,
There is no particular minimum or maximum for cons. Most of the time people have between 3-6 squads sometimes much much more, sometimes none. The right number is the one you feel comfortable with. This number can be affected by the doctrine you choose (conscripts tactics).
About Penals...you should avoid making them most of the time. There only use are close combat specialist with the flamer upgrade and only in very dense terrain with very few LOS (stalingrad? oh wait..rip little map). And there is very few places like this. Even the "town part" of the lienne forest does not justify building them over conscripts. If you see you'r gonna have to fight in close combat often, your better with a doctrine that include shock troopers (there is plenty) they are much more cost effective (and there is no german units that can beat them at short range).

The paradox is that Penals cost more that shocktroopers. Penals have THE WORST ARMOR IN THE GAME, and a rather unimpressife firepower. Which mean you'll spend a lot of money to reinforce them very often cause they die like flies.
On the other hand, the Shock are the exact opposite.
