hurr by that logic okw and ostheer should get demos to deal with rifle blobs.

daspouos suggested, Solomon-approved.

Again, apart from the SU-76 NOTHING on your List really underperforms. The 34/76 can arrive very early and take your enemy by surprise and you can build them in swarms and overrun your enemy. SU-85 does its job really well and the T70 fucks shit up left and right. Also you didnt even mention the Katyusha also a Soviet stock unit that does really well.

They were referring to the "lategame" effectiveness of the units, I'd pretty much agree with them on all of them save for the SU-85 - T-70's a bit of weird one since of course no light tanks are intended to be great lategame anyway, and it does have a very good scouting ability to prevent it being a waste of fuel if it lives anyway, but it's definitely not something to bank your lategame on.

Then don't give volks grens mp40s without a sprint ability.

I'm just getting the sense from ya that AEs are completely useless in combat, who are also a bit poor Demo Charges-aside, but I'd remain not agreeing with that concept.

With Ostheer/OKW the munition sinks you have are basically 100% required. You have to get medics, you will have to make a large amount of use of grenades, you need to have shreks, you need to give your Obers LMG34's. Ostheer relies on munitions to effectively operate at all stages of of the game. The reason the fuel to muni conversion is so powerful is it takes away one of Ost's biggest limiters

You're basically telling me USF will win without throwing grenades, buying MGs, armour skirts, using smoke, buying mines, or buying the weapons that is literally a design point of the faction. Everyone spends munitions a ton outside of commander abilities aside from Soviets when they aren't using Guards. Some use it in a far more linear manner than the others, but they're going to use it because you kinda have to win the game.

And I just you about USF units that are gigantic munition sinks, right? And not from one upgrade, constantly to use them at all. Only the Major out of all of them have much of a purpose without spending.

This sentence doesn't make any sense. USF has a fraction of the munition sinks Ostheer and OKW do and you yourself said we see few demo's from them.

What? No. USF has weapon upgrades like Ostheer and OKW but up to two, static MG upgrade like Ostheer, pintle guns like Ostheer on their medium (though less overall on their tanks) which cost 10 more, and some units that are walking munition bleeds to function in addition to a bunch of smoke abilities (none of which are free).

REs: If you're using them in combat regularly, you're using suppressive volley 'cause it's not like it does damage.
M20: Armour skirts and if it lives long enough, it exists for placing AT mines because it dies in two AT hits while requiring close-range to do damage and losing it costs you these mines.
57mm: If it's at least a PIV, the 57mm needs to chug AP shells.
Stuart: Basically the only thing really good about it is has a bunch of abilities (which are a bit poor themselves but that's another story).
Major: If you're using him as something other than a retreat point, you're using his (mostly horrifically overpriced) call-in abilities.

Additionally, Rifles' vet basically requires munition spending to be useful, as they get less accuracy from vet 3 than other combat infantry while gaining a large decrease of their abilities' cooldowns.
