If the relic gives the Grens a one more model and gives them the same statistics as the Riflemans currently have, I honestly wouldn't mind if the mortar and the Pak (which I consider currently bad) receive a Nerf, and put the mg42 in t1.
Why would Relic give Grens one more model? Do you realize how unskilled or inexperienced you sound when you compare Axis infantry to allies and claim Axis infantry to be weaker?
Grens vs Infantry
240 vs 280 (1-0)
4 models vs 5 models (1-1)
Long range vs Medium range (2-2)
Rifle grenade vs Mk 2 grenade (needs research which costs MP and Fuel) (3-2)
Panzerfaust at 0 vet vs AT nades at vet 1 (4-2)
Free lmg upgrade vs Bars (needs SEPARATE research which costs MP and Fuel) (5-2)
More accuracy vs Less accuracy (6-2)
Can make bunkers vs can't make shit (not confident on this might have changed) (7-2)
can heal other units on frontline vs can't do shit (8-2)
All these above comparison was on non doctrinal basis, still think Riflemen are superior? Fire away. Also Idk how you got around how the Ost support weapons are superior when I did mention how US falls short.
