Then lets limit SU stolen MGs crews to 4. If that is not a bonus. It shouldnt hurt in any way. What do you say? Certainly MG42 doesnt "need 6 man to work" it can do its job with 4 already
Sure, don't care. That has nothing to do with my point
I think it's a solid ability. It's not like valiant assault/for mother Russia levels of good, but it can definitely be really strong
Very helpful for your tanks, especially if they are lower veterancy. The only negative thing about the ability is that it temporarily cancels out veterancy bonuses on your units that are being buffed by the ability
So some vet 3 units perform slightly worse (Pershing is one that i know of) when the ability is active, but most of the time it's very useful
The reload+range bonus can really be ferocious on Jacksons
Youre the one who brought up USF vehicle crews lol
Both Pak43s should get brace but shouldn't auto-fire through shotblockers imo. Attack ground would still pass through anything, just shouldn't auto target
Feel like that would make the unit more fun for both sides, could be wrong though. Imo the 5 vet system was always a terrible idea, they've had to change it extensively
Maxims slightly better survivability against explosives is pretty meaningless. The death loop ruins pretty much any advantage the crew size gives you. The 6 men is necessary for it to work, it's not a bonus
Bunker will still be worthless vs Penal with no tech satchel charges.
Well it literally can't be worthless if it's forcing them to spend 45 muni. And that's only against Soviets who went t1, they still have 2 other factions to play against
Still haven't played enough as or against brits to make up my mind. They are still by far the faction i encounter the least, for teammates or opponents
And looking at the faction. Zis mortar su76 t34 have vet 0 abilities to help them early on overcoming low preformance or scaling without being op. So vet0 sustained fire fits the faction nicely.
Yup fits in with the rest of the support tier. A lot of reasons making this a good change
