volks are the toughest infantry unit? first time ive heard that one.

That is their role. They are tough screening troops with a great AT weapon. After tier 2, What do cons do? They oorah up to tanks and throw an AT nade that will most likely fail to pen.
you said it yourself, volks arent offensive powerhouses in late game, but they fill a vital role. i would say cons do the same thanks to their abilities. merge, oorah, molotovs and AT nades are all still useful in the late game. without an lmg, grens scale just as well (or bad, if you want to look at it that way) as cons. would you say a gren without an lmg is completely worthless late game?
Why would you even post this? Why would anyone deliberately NOT use their unit to their potential? Such a bad argument I'm not even going to bother.
saying you get elite infantry IS an argument. they are meant to replace conscripts. if you keep your cons alive, then keep using them to merge and harass. if they die, replace it with an elite squad. okw build volks in the early game because they have to. once okw get access to stronger infantry, they would rarely pick a vet 0 volks for late game.
So is that what this game is supposed to be? To be Elite means to be rare, but due to this games oversight the only option for a soviet player is to spam maxims/snipers until you can unlock elite infantry? If all I'm doing is throwing bodies into a meat grinder until CP2 to unlock viable infantry, why would I make Cons that are shit, when I can spam Maxims that remain relevant all game?
Wouldn't it be better for the game and make more sense to have conscripts be the bulk of the infantry (like in their description), with a few elite squads thrown in to deal the damage? You know, like how OKW plays with Sturms/Volks + their elite infantry?
