I know, I'm not the only one who thinks this is really a balance issue.
High DPS, 6 models and extremely game changing veterancy bonuses. They need a build/reinforcement cost increase.

I'm pretty sure my vehicles were hit by AT nades thrown by penals several times untill now. It is because that AT tactics commander that soviets have? I don't own that commander and I don't use penals. I am a Maxim spammer.

This happens when you play against a dropped player and the CPU merges a conscript with a penal squad.
Quite a funny bug

Fight them like they were poor mans rifles, which they are.
They arrive later, scale worse, are helpless against vehicles, MGs, simple focus fire.
And if you want to talk game changing vet, I suggest opening thread on OKW.

Stop bullshitting, thanks for proving you've never even used the unit in your life. At no point ever they had any AT capabilities.

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Noticed Sarantinis response and was about to edit mine(I'm hard to get along, but not afraid to admit to mistake or not knowing something unlike a bunch of people here), but after reading yours, I don't feel like it anymore.

If someone defeats you with Penal spam, they could have done the same but faster with con spam.
My controls weren't working
And if they were, you were playing dishonorably,
And if you weren't, you were playing without skill,
And if you were, it's not fun to play that way,
And if it is, you only care about winning.

There are so many options available to counter this, especially for a unit with 0 AT abilities
