Profile of Mr. Someguy

It's not "bad working pls fix" situation. It's more about standartsization of doctrine unit spawing mechanics. In different period of time diferent method were applied. All of them working, but on the other hand there is a mess with them. I am just asking to bring them to common standart and that's all.

They worked, but they weren't balanced. The problem with call-ins was that it punished you for teching. The entire reason they were tied to tech was to stop people from stalling for zero-tech/zero-build time tanks that were generally superior to standard tanks that you needed to invest to get. OKW Special Operations for example dominated the faction because the zero-tech instant Command Panther. Packaged deals like the Assault Guards in M5 should probably stay as a call-in.

Strongly disagree, I like Crew Repair as it is. If anything, make it free considering the penalty.

The medic and recce sections sound nice, but weapon sections are no different from currently double bren 5 man sections. I suggest the upgrade come with a transferable bren on the 5th man when reinforced.

I thought of that before and calling it Bren Section Upgrade, as the Bren was as centripetal to the British Army as the Maschinengewehr was to the Germans. However that would serve no purpose other than limiting player choice, while 99% of the time players are going to use 2x Brens anyway, I didn't want to limit the one guy that might want 2 PIAT's.

That said the difference between this section and the current ones is that they give up the option for a marksman / artillery or a medic / healing in order to get 2 weapons, rather than the current of Double Bren Medic Section which practically has it all.

Also, in your proposal, sections will hava 2 weapon slot ? So if any upgrade take up 1 slot, they still can have 1 weapon ?

Yes, Sections have 2 slots and each upgrades takes 1 except for the Weapon Section, which specifically takes none so that 2 weapons can be used. It's like this, their specialization is using heavy weapons, rather than deploying a a marksman or a medic.

About medic upgrade. Either self heal or drop medic crates, both is too much.

I very much want to move away from Medic Sections being mandatory for healing by having healing tied directly to them. I did this by splitting the healing into two parts, their medic will heal the squad, but they may also heal other squads by deploying medical crates. This way, they do not need to be present to heal other troops. I do still think healing is inadequate even with this change, but I opted not to expand on it yet and just lay the groundwork here. The simplest solution would be to allow the British Medics to be buildable at one of your base buildings.

That is not very accurate

Combat Engineers have 2
Conscripts and OSttruppen have 1


Ranger have 3

My mistake, I thought I remembered being able to have 2 weapons + Flamethrower, but I might be thinking of Sweepers.

Would you require 2 models for the full effect? So 2 models would put away their weapons and grab a bottle? What about the throw speed boost at vet 2? Would that stay?

Sounds like a large change in my head with a lot of repercussions that would probably require extensive testing.

I forgot about the speed increase at Vet 2 to be honest, but yeah the idea is that 2 men move throw, one quick and one slow. You have the option of waiting for both or just letting the first one go. Since waiting for a molotov to come out feels punishing, the idea was to take that punishment and turn it into a reward of sorts, but still not punish you for moving if you have to. It's an odd idea for but it seems interesting enough to share. 40 damage might be a bit high though now that I think about it, anyone still standing there would have taken AOE damage and 40 might be lethal.
