Give RETs the ability to build sandbags.

Change tank traps to yellow cover.

And I think this shouldn't be green cover.

Lol tank traps providing green cover is one of the silliest things in the entire game

Sandbags should only be built by engies and conscripts. Everyone else can lose them imo

Worked perfectly fine on Omaha beach, however it wasn't placed by allies back then.

How about no. USF is the most aggressive faction and doesn't deserve all of the perks of more defensive factions. They already get non-doc mines, and normal mines in HALF of the doctrines. Make do with tank traps.

If you weren't so drunk on your one-faction balance crusade you'd know tank tanks are better than sandbags because of the build speed.

But I'd rather face tank traps because a 5man squad can't use them effectively enough to prevent suppression.

If they only build one tank trap.

You don't only build one tank trap if you're using them for cover.

I would say make the field defense give the built option to RE and wire/Tank traps to riflemen.

Imo mainline infatry should not be able to build heavy cover (or they should so is very low speed.)

Conscripts might be an exception unless they continue to receive buffs.

Change tank traps to yellow cover.

Agreed and have made the same suggestion many times. In addition increase build time reduce size and maybe add resistance to ballistic weapons. Currently a tank can easily destroy them with its main gun.

IMO REs should be able to build sandbagsconsidering every faction but USF can build sandbags. Tank traps are unreliable compared to sandbags.

If you only have the time to build one tank trap, you don't have time to build a sandbag.

Your assertion that it'd be a buff to USF remains ridiculous.

USF is in a very good spot right now, there's no need to do buff anything for USF. Where's the pak howi nerf, where's the officer fix for the unintended rifle buff. Who gives a shit if usf doesn't have sandbags. It's winrate, like hte Soviets is above average.

Also infantry sections since their snare are in the hand of royal engineer.

As i see, this is more of a QOL improve. As USF will have ACTUAL cover, and tank traps are better in stopping tank.

What about OKW, they are a very aggressive faction, too, but still, they event have sandbags on mainline, MG and AT at HQ, stock mines, etc.

I wanted to get rid of volk bags. I don't think they deserve them either. Bal team, as usual, doesn't listen. Instead buffs rifles to the point u can charge volk bags with rifles in the early game.

Jezus why are u so against the sandbags? Unlike the difference between other factions each give each a sense of uniqueness. I am just saying RE should be given sandbags and the tank taps turned to yellow cover.. im not asking to buff pack howitzer AOE or buff jackson range.
