Actually no mainline infantry should have access to sandbags unless it is really crappy.

Then it should removed from them also, as it should be removed from tommies, and ppsh conscripts...

I would be cool with rear echelons building sandbags. The other way of doing this is fixing tank traps. You have to lay tank traps sideways for full protection, but you cannot drag two or more together like this.

Sandbags for Rear Echelon troops seems like the way to go to me. Buildable cover should look like cover.

Would be nice for all sandbags to use the Conscript model too while we're at it. It looks nicer and would make it substantially harder for Volks and Tommies to make it monodirectional by using a territory point as a barded wire substitute.

They just need cover that will protect them from suppression. 2 sideways tanks traps does the job, but it is a pain in the ass laying them.

But for rear echelon the sandbag is useless why cuz tank traps get build faster

Sandbags are in a pretty good spot right now. Let me explain:
1. Okw sandbags on volks are a must have, as sturms are already an overburdened unit.
2. Soviet sandbags are plentiful but weaker than other sandbags. They also take lots of space, which makes them ballanced.
3. Ostheer sandbags are rightfully on the pios, who are a cheap but not spammable squad. Grens are too cheap and spammable to get the good sandbags so instead of going the way of soviets they less but better sandbags.
4. Usf sandbags are doctrinal and REs actually got better buildable green cover in the form of tank traps which means its pretty much oke.
5. Ukf is the only problematic one as they get sandbags on a squad that benefits the most from them (its like if soviets had sandbags on guards), but on the other hand that is what they need to stay competitive and also the faction as a whole is hugely based around terrain and cover modification. So on in all they are the worst implementation of sandbags ballance wise but still pretty much ok.
