I don't see how gaining DPS from moving makes them "Assault Troops", if anything it should just be minimal loss of DPS while moving.
I agree. I imagine having high dps at short range and poor at long would make them assault troops. This mechanic, similar to blizzards, just seems like an APM dump for players to run their troops back-and-forth at point blank range.

It just makes cover even less useful and detracts from any semblance of realism (I know gameplay trumps realism but c'mon!)
