Thermite grenades and M1941 LMGs... Kreygasm

What about having Rangers fight harder when they take casualties? Think of the Soviet Zeal ability in the beta.

This would fit the overwhelming offensive force theme of the commander really well, and makes sense considering how insane Rangers were IRL.

Volks and Panzerfusiliers use the Volk rifle.

I like all but Recon company. To me:

0 CP Scout Training

Reworked to an active, toggleable ability that makes a Rifle squad stationary, unable to retreat, for 10 secs while they scan an area. Think like IR half track, if it couldn't see through objects and only had lots of sight range.

0 CP Greyhound

Greyhound is now built from LT tier, under M20 just like EZ8 is from M4A3 Sherman. Greyhounds price decreased to 30 fuel, and crew renamed Greyhound Crew. They can lay AT mines when disembarked.

2 CP IR Pathfinders

IR Pathfinders reworked, reinforce costs reflect what they are. Reinforce down to 25.

5 CP High Altitude Recon

This is a teamwork ability. It's fine imo, especially as it can't be shot down.

7 CP Air Dropped Combat Group

Drops 2 Elite Paratrooper Squads and a manned AT gun, is a 720 MP purchase still. However:

Elite Paratroopers default weapon are Thompsons, can sprint, and have 1.25 armor. At vet 3 they can camo. Basically, Paratroopers on drugs. This gives the ability some real teeth, while still retaining the high cost. Dropping the AT as manned is a quality of life changes that encourages its use more.

You would give abilities a point value, max 100 points per commander. You could have discounts for having sets of abilities-say Stuka Dive Bomb is normally 35, and recon is normally 20- you could a tactical combination or something that lowers the price of each if you have both in one commander from 55 to 40, or something.
