OR you should, because all things are related and don't work in isolation. In your POV you think B is fine, but maybe B is not fine at can be one of the reasons that by comparison A is been bad, even if against C is fine.
...
We both can agree with all the things are related. But in order to solve a single problem, you dont bring into the table other problems aswell, and make a mess of topics and no problem gets solved. I mean, B can/cannot be fine, but definitely A is broken, focus on fixing one problem at a time, cons in this case, i gave many suggestions but the hate towards enemy inf is too hyped and mainstream. Believe me or not, but this kind of discussions remind me of kids fightings. Cons can be fixed with a steady step, later volks get toned down, or OKM starting MP reduced, they are offtopic and their relation to this problem im particular is minimal.
Cons are expensive and not that useful. But everyones like to blame on axis inf. If you tone down volks, the next patch rifles will get toned down too, since balance there got broken for a stupid cons argument. Later grens/pzgrdiers too get toned down and so and so on. This logic is repeating itself so much i'd rather take the risk to do a diferent approach.
So what you suggest?
-Reduce power level of BAR rifles, STG Volks (they should have access to faster Obers) and not sure IS double bren (i don't know as much it's current situation).
-Make conscripts start with molotovs but lockdown Penal PTRS (maybe vanilla satchel) behind current AT package and rename it AT and demolition pack or something.
At this moment with current Oorah and molotov cost, i don't think of this as such an issue but i could be wrong.
-My fear with reducing reinforcing cost with tech, is that it could make PPSH based strats too spammable even if they are now at 60.
IF you can make a believable reason to exclude it somehow from PPSH conscripts, i could see it working with -1mp per each of the first 2 tiers and -2mp for T4.
-Don't give them LMG. Don't give them PPSH stock. I don't want a late game DPS upgrade. But if you suggest something, i'll rather it be a SVT pack or better, just Guards Mosins. You could call it training or something like that.
Great ideas, imo giving lmg upgrades to cons is not optimal too. Cons are not a ostruppen clone.
Maybe making reinforce cost really cheap can help too, they become "extra dispensable" this way.
If cons could trade effectively manpower maybe they could find some use in current game.
Free Oohraah! sounds fine. Having them with a cheaper molo and free Oohraah could give a shock value for cons and fight and use garrisons earlier than any other inf.
As no one really wants to give a detailed 1v1 matchup of current infantry balance, but all SU fans rant about cons sucking, i ask for Vipper or Katitof to raise some light.
