Maybe I was not clear enough having flat weapons profiles does not make weapons bad, it makes small arm fire fight "bad" and that is why weapon profiles where introduced.
The only one preaching on flat weapon profile is you.
You repeat it over and over like some kind of holy mantra, saying how bad thing it is, completely and utterly ignoring the fact that this is how weapon profile of MAJORITY of axis rifle infantry looks like.
Wanting to equip a "Soviet" unit with "USF" weapon ignores faction design.
Putting 100% resources on OKW ignores OKW faction design.
Making a light tank out of 222 ignores Ost design.
Nerfing brit emplacements and heavy armor ignores USF design.
Allowing OKW to have flamers ignores OKW design.
Tiger Ace ignores whole vet design.
Making volks stronger then cons and grens ignores OKW faction design.
Giving volks inc nades ignores OKW faction design.
Putting OKW P4 in T4 ignores OKW design.
Giving USF pershing ignores USF faction design.
Changing tier structures for OKW and Sov ignores faction design.
Guess what?
If faction design clearly does not work, no one gives a shit, its balance that matters.
We have broken unit, we have simply way to make it into working unit without imbalancing its performance or scaling against anything at the end.
Riflemen have a very good weapon and great weapon upgrade because the whole faction is designed around them, so giving the same weapon to a Soviet squad is not necessarily a good idea.
Like.... Ostwind, P4 or Panther for OKW? These are ost units, why OKW has them? Who thought it was a good idea?
Trying to "fix" SVT by increasing the far DPS is actually turning into a better version of guards Mosin, (the number you suggested are close that weapon) so:
Guard mosins are long range weapon, just like gren Kars.
Guards are doctrinal.
Guards scale better.
Guards are NOT dedicated, stock AI squad, but "medium tank" of the infantry, good vs everything, excelling vs nothing. Penals are dedicated AI squad that is not doing a good job at AI.
6 SVTs would still be WORSE then 6 guard mosins on long range.
And since you hate overlaping so hard, why weren't you raging hard when storms were implemented?
Stock they are just grens.
With upgrades they are just PGs or volks or G43 grens.
I don't see you losing your shit over that.
Do I smell... double standards again?
Its just so hilarious to see you literally crap yourself out of fear of penals becoming a valid AI squad with clear, unique role that still can not replace cons or even be compared to rifles in ANY way due to lack of flexibility.
