Cons should be able to beat Sturms 2 to 1 at least right? I'm pretty sure I've had success doing that at least, get a squad into cover and draw the sturmpio fire, then flank with the other either to focus fire or chuck a benzine bomb at them.
All depends. I would say they can RETREAT them. But they cant be used consistently nor cost effectively. If say you get lucky and get a good bleed on them and cause the spiraling out of control Reinforcement instead of buying new squads then yeah but you need to keep mass producing your scripts.
But even if you field a TON of them if they get anywhere around 2/3 your force size you are going to bleed MP like a stuffed Pig.
I would say that for cost Scripts are 100% not viable against them. Maybe VonIvan or Jesulin can do it I dunno. But why would you bother unless your trolling someone much worse than you? Especially once Strums start getting Vet. And the worst part is for poor scripts Sturms are the LEAST of your infantry woes.
Its sad Scripts are the worst infantry now IMHO due to the factions they have to face. Its like saying Sorry OST you need to fight Vanilla Riflemen with Pios and if you dont call in Agrens at some point then you are stuck fighting Airborne with M1919s!
