Average number of squad members for axis is 5(sooooo many volks).
Average number of squad members for allies is 5 as well, because soviets are not the only allied faction in game.

Both snipers shoot often at 4 and 6 man squads.
Also, both snipers were normalized long time ago and shoot pretty much just as often.

And yes, you SHOULD include scoped G43, because squad is NOT meant to be used without it, its gated behind upgrade to keep the squad cheap mp-wise and to not allow quick stacking of potent AI weapons as scoped G43s and volk STGs are brutal combination.

To ignore Dostrofio's self aggrendising posturing for a moment:

The ostruppen comparison is a very valid point. Late game vet 3 ostruppen, an even cheaper unit with an at snare, already scale better than conscripts. They were always intended to be a cheap, fodder like meatshield unit with utility. Just like conscripts.

Sure, cons do a little more than Ostruppen in the utility game. But they also fight worse in the long run and cost more.

There really is no argument for anything besides letting Cons have an actual late game upgrade. Whatever they are CALLED they are the core infantry unit of the soviet army and there is zero reason for only one nation to have a core infantry choice that arbitrarily is useless in the late game.

Every other core infantry can weapon upgrade one way or another. Even if the only change is an SVT upgrade package available from T4, they need something
