I disagree.
The only MG that can be spammed is the Maxim.
The only Mortar that is spammed is the USF one.
Sturm Pios spam? What? never saw more than 2.

Sturmpio spam would break the manpower bank pretty fast. I've not seen it even attempted in a long time.

I have recently seen a new Duct Tape commercial using the following line: "There is nothing in the world that spam can't fix!". Remember, it aint easy being cheesy.

The only units I think should be spammed are units like ostruppen from relief infantry, conscripts from rapid conscription, and t3476s.

What about Shermans and Riflemen? They work best in large numbers.

Ok shermans yes but riflemen no. Sure they work best in large numbers but i dont think that was their intent. Shermans get buffed when used together, riflemen dont. Riflemen are made to flank and hit hard and fast from multiple directions. THis is how people are supposed to deal with mg spam but most people thought this would be too much micro and complained about it hence the mortar.

True.
Shermans however should be added to your list, Radio Net wors really well in large numbers, the 3 Shermans + 1 Jackson combo can do a lot of damage.

If you hate spam so much stop playing 3v3 and 4v4.

I've yet so see radio net have any effect in 1v1 or 2v2 where you won't get out more than 2 shermans in most cases. :/ Is the bonus even worth while? It's also implemented rather questionably. Unlike all command tank auras (my main reference here is the command panther) that span quite far, the tanks need to be rather close for it to activate exactly the opposite of what radios were invented for in the first place :D

Well it's a free bonus you get and stacked it can be very powerful, 3 Vet1 Shermans in Radio net synch have the damage output of four, for reference.

So you are saying that unit/army spam doesn't work there? :D try spamming some guns in europa universalis. The more arty you have in your rear line, the better your stack is in general, even though there are some exceptions.
