Im not to impressed with the New G43 Grens For a 60 munition g43 Grens as shown in the video below are easily beaten by single bar riflemen, and struggle hard against 7man cons. I think giving grens access to a 3rd g43 will make this upgrade more viable
then just make them a 4 model squad and give gren kar98ks, that way OKW players have a choice to go with Volks a more durable 5 model mid to close range squad that can build sandbags or go with Pfus a more fragile 4 model long range squad that can get access to LMG42 or Panzerschrecks
I think Panzerfusililers should lose the g43s and 6th model upgrade, and get a LMG42. OKW already has good close to mid range infantry, but it lacks long range infantry firepower until they get obers.
Making commander superiour to others does not make it better.
Do you have any suggestions that for something that would work better? I was thinking giving the doctrine a Panzer II instead or the OKW Panzer commander upgrade instead. (the upgrade would be for P4s and Panthers only)
Some Ideas I have for the next patch focusing on Commanders.
USF-Rifle Company
(0CP)- Sherman "Easy eight"
(0cp)- Riflemen Field Defenses
(0cp)- Advanced Infantry Equipment
(2cp)- Fired up! (removed)
(2cp)- Master Sergeant (replaces Fired up!)
Riflemen Squad size increased from 5 to 6
Riflemen Squad Reinforce cost reduced from 28 to 26
Riflemen Squad Gains Fired up!
Upgrade takes up one wepaon slot
(6cp) white phosphorous Barrage
Ostheer-Lighting War
(0cp)- Panzer 4 J (Replaces relief infantry)
(2cp)- Jaeger light infantry equipment (reworked for all commanders with this ability)
When Grenadiers are upgraded with G43s their rifle grenade is replaced with Model 24 Stielhandgranate
(4CP)- Tactical Movement
(6cp)- relief infantry (removed)
(12cp)-Stuka Close air support
(12cp)-Tiger tank
Soviet-Conscripts Support Tactics
(0CP)-KV-1 Tank
(2CP)-Conscript Assault package (reworked for all commanders with this ability)
When Conscript are upgraded with PPsh submachine gun their Molotov Cocktails is replaced with RG-42 Anti-Personnel Grenade
so the patched vsl is going to be worse than stock rifles/bar.
thats before rifles get vet or double bars or both!
Yeah whats the hooha about vsl?? It was supposed to be too oppressive?
I do agree the VSL STG needs some finetuning. However, Its important to keep in mind that VSL gives Grens a STG44, increased squad size, Free medkits and other bonus. Unlike Riflemen which just get a BAR when upgraded.
