IR HT requiring muni to function is like conscripts requiring fuel each time they throw a molotov. Imo it's a very bad course to follow

why though? you have to pay muni everytime you call in a recon plane or activate partisan network, not sure why the same logic shouldn't apply to the IRHT. that aside, and to use your analogy, i'd say it's like conscripst having to unlock molotovs for mp/fu once and having to spend mu each time molotovs are used.

There are only really a few options:

But of course, make it 1HK, its cheaper than a walking stuka and has more survivability, should be the other way around.

I still don't understand the valentine wasnt allowed it but a non doctrinal unit was.

Why??? then are we going to nerf para signal post thing that has more area coverage and doesn't take pop cap??

What if we remove the exact same ability from UKF instead?

I like stormjager idea, but the IRHT the should affect all the frontal cone area simultaneously

And what are your thoughts on a Muni cost per use? If they change the initial cost I don't see how you can be against Muni per use, it makes tons of sense

If something like the US AT gun costs Muni in order to function properly I don't see why the IR HT shouldn't have one

My idea about IRHT is rework it into something less exploitable, Xray see through vision has proved to be too much but the unit must not become literally useless. The game diversity is at a minimum since its release, i dont want more units to dissapear.

Here’s how you fix the IR HT: It doesn’t reveal units but just marks units for better accuracy of IR STGs firing at them. You can then give a few more units IR stgs to make this an army dynamic.

Would it be possible to replace the current "X-Ray vision" with normal sight? It seems to me that using normal vision would fix most, if not all, of the problems the unit currently has.



This could also work, but "IR Sights" would need to be an upgrade on more than just infantry. Requiring a unit to be both seen by the IRHT and be fired on by IR-equipped squads would make it incredibly niche. Adding an "IR-Sight" upgrade for the Panther (this was a real thing) and possibly the JP4 would give this new roll a bit more utility.
