Commissar PPSH

Saw Tightropes game with Soviet reserve but no commissar. Decided to try PPSH with commissar since the attack buff should in theory make them put out a decent amount of damage. Since their reinforce is so cheap the rec acc nerf isnt so punishing. The game itself wasn't that great, my team won by a large margin but I just wanted to give the combo a try in the name of science.

I suck with conscripts so my opening was very passive until I got my molotov and then blob going. Luckily I was on the city-ish side of the map which would allow for some PPSH shenanigans. Got a couple good attacks in however I did keep my PPSH in a a team of 2 so extrapolating performance is a little hard. There were 2 "skirmishes" with vetted PPSH around 15-18 min mark where a bit of damage was done solo before 2nd squad helped. The damage done even while retreating was huge, didn't get the wipe but in team games were more is going on it might be a great way to get that dreaded off screen wipe. The rest of the commander worked out fairly well, weapon drop is cost efficient and howi is always good for team games. Didn't use rapid conscription since I was extremely focused on trying to get a good battle between a PPSH squad vs anything.

Couple random thoughts:
I thought the commissar wasn't supposed to be able to pick up weapons or crew weapons? Picked up flamer and crewed at gun.
When my HOWI got decrewed I couldn't see it, it looked destroyed but in replay it is there. Weird.

For the math wiz like MMX(wink wink) could you do a calculation of what the DPS would be for conscripts,7man,PPSH,Penals to see how big the benefit is.

Thanks for reading.
