Double post Yay!

anyone have a list or know off the top of their heads which weapon upgrades can be used while moving and those that need the unit to be stationary?

Stationary
- LMG42
- PTRS41
- DP28
- Browning 1919 (except on paratroopers)
- Bazookas
- Panzerschreks
- Flamethrowers

Moving
- G43 rifles
- PPSH41
- Thomson SMGs
- BARs
- STG44 (both IR and non IR)
- LMG34 (on obersoldaten; can't fire on the move if picked up by another unit)

I like these ideas a lot.

For the Brumbar, it might be nice to make it function like a mini ISU152. Give it more range so it can effectively engage entrenched positions and give it an ammo ability to load AP rounds.

Soviets are currently overpowered. Their base army is balanced but they have a lot of overpowered commanders and call-in units.

Guards slightly over perform.

Shock troopers don't require you to do any creative flanking as with panzergrenadiers and these squads are too powerful in general. You can just bum-rush squad in green cover, even panzergrenadiers/sturmpioniers, and force them to retreat. A grenadier squad or volksgrenadier squad in green cover can be forced to retreat without even killing a shock trooper model in the process. Combine shock troopers with For Mother Russia and there is nothing your opponent can do except just mass retreat and stay in his base for a minute.

Stalling for call-ins is too easy and too rewarding. This puts a very large risk on getting light vehicles as axis because you are going to need all the fuel you can get to counter the extremely potent T34/85s and IS-2s. (this problem of course also exist for Wehrmacht mechanized assault)

PTRS conscripts are extremely broken. You can just blob these units and win. They can't be countered by HMGs, light vehicles can only be used against them if you are Jesulin, and they will wreck AT guns/mortars/leIGs in 1 burst if you have 3~4 PTRS conscript squads. Utterly ridiculous.

Demo charges need to be removed from the soviets. There used to be a time where you needed them to even out the score against superior german infantry, but this time has long gone. Soviets no longer need this crutch; especially with everybody using the powerful soviet commanders 99.99% of the time.

There is this small death trap where your units will get stuck on retreat near the east fuel. I saw it on Lovenest stream. It was in that small corner of the castle where you can walk up the ramp to the elevated shooting position. Once his unit retreated from that position, they got stuck in the corner instead of walking down the ramp.
