yes but it’s u could just mirror an already existing balanced unit, like the commissar , right now it has less ability and utility and worse performance for the price (for reference commissar beat volks at 5 men)
That's a good point, but the Soviets rely much more heavily on doctrines for good infantry. To have a Commissar, you have to give up Shocks, for instance. Context plays a role in how effective a unit should be.
That said, I do think you're right that the squad needs something more. I'd suggest better RA to reduce his MP bleed and make his bodyguards more consistent with regular Obers. But how much improvement is needed isn't quite clear yet.
EDIT: Actually, it might be cool to see him at CP3 with real Ober bodyguards, .7RA. The late timing and high power would be more unique.
