pioneers currently cost 6 pop, but it was 5 in the previous patch. The 200 mp Rear echelon currently sit at 5 pop.

Panzerfusiliser currently cost 6 pop, but it was 5 in the previous patch. the similarly priced rifleman cost 7 pop. (and an up sized tommies is 8 pop...)

shocktrooper currently cost 8 pop, but it was 9 in the previous patch. The similarly priced ober cost 10 pop.

Obers were always 10 pop before that pop change right? Don't remember them being different.

I'm beginning to think sturmpioneers sit better at 8 pop now than 9(9 pop sturms is just lulz if you compare to pak 43/ostwind pop).

Pop need to need to looked at:
Sturm officer 8
P.F. 6
Jaeger 8
Grenadier 8
Pg 9
Field artillery officer 9
assault grenadier 5
Strom 8
Conscripts 6
Partisan 4
LT 8
Ranger 10
Assault engineer 8
generally it seems messed up...following little logic...

Are you sure that Grens are 8?, they should be 7 since the patch that messed up the pop caps had 8 pop Grenadiers and Obersoldaten

I took the numbers from :
http://www.stat.coh2.hu/index.php

and they seem to have a different number if hover over the icon or open the units page...
In game they seem to be 7...

They still remain a mess 8 for assault engineers and 9 paratroopers make little sense.

It makes no sense to increase poineer pop cost when decreasing the pop of the Tiger. It's ridiculous that poineers cost 6 pop while stocktroops/guards cost 8.

Relic let me tell you what the pop cost between faction:
4 model conscripts, 4 pop
4 model penals, 5 pop
4 model shocktroops/guards, 6 pop
Now 4 model poineers, 6 pop

So the poineers perform well enough like shocktroops/gurads? GG relic.

A lot of infantry units' pop cost should be reworked slightly. I'm pretty sure it's relic's mistakes when they changed call-in infantry pop cost last patch.

Why decrease shocktroops from 10 to 8 while rangers/commandos still cost 10?Because rangers/commandos have 5 models but shocktroops have 6?

poineers 6 pop (should be 5 like previous stats)
pfusilier 6 pop (should be 7 like previous stats)
shocktroops 8 pop (should go back to 10 to match up with other elite infantry)
Assault grens 5 pop (should be 7 like previous stats)
Artillery field officer 9 pop (should be 8 to match up with other faction officers)
120mm mortars 13 pop lol(should be 8 or 9)
Assault Guardtroops 6 pop (should be 8)
6 pounlder ATgun 7 pop (should be 9 to match up with pak40/zis3)
MG34 4 pop (should be 5 to match up with other HMGs)
Partisans 4 pop (should be 6, this unit performs very well in close range it can camouflage, throw 2 kind of nades, plant mines and come out from buildings, should be 5 at the very least)
