Allowing units that were never meant to receive weapon upgrades to purchase weapon upgrades because they are partnered with a USF player is simply unbalancing. The soviet army is designed to play a specific way. Their tech, units, and commanders take into account (or at least should) the lack of upgradable infantry. This is how they are balanced. When you introduce weapon upgrades into the mix the entire balance of the faction gets thrown out of order. Having access to bazookas alone would completely change soviet early game by giving them reasonably good infantry based AT. Even if it could be balanced somehow it would require balancing for two different scenarios; those in which soviets have access to weapon upgrades and those times they don't. I agree that team games, particularly 3v3 and up, need better balance but conscripts with bars or bazookas is not the way to fix it.

I'm having difficulties with the soviets. But I suck, and don't do meta strats (because I don't wanna and I suck, not specifically in that order)
