Why do you keep acting like Thompson Paras and stormtroopers are the same type of unit? One has 4 men and stealth, the other has 6 and no stealth...
You're literally comparing it to an assault squad....

Because the commandos which ARE comparable to storms get a ambush bonus for free.

I never said to use them like an assualt squad. I just wanted the tac assault ability to be a bit more potent or less counterable, because u can just hit retreat and the enemy squad will suffer little damage while even hitting retreat from a thompson para squad using tactical assault you're still likely to suffer a wipe.

If the counter is to run a way its a pretty fucking good ability...

The thing is, if you attack normally, the squad would run away anyways. Except when thompson paras pop the ability, you'll get basically a guaranteed squad wipe regardless of what the enemy squad does. Meanwhile, mp40 storms might get just an extra man killed compared to just normally attacking the squad. Essentially u pay 25 munis to kill an extra man, while thompson paras pay 20 for a squad wipe. I've done it so many times with the paras, it's almost unfair, I just get them on your retreat path, wait for the retreat and pop the ability on even a fairly healthy retreating squad, then squad wipe. It's pretty damn easy to get on a squad's retreat path.

So the complaint is that the 90mu upgrade is more effective than the free one...?

Are you guys drunk? Why the hell is there a thompson paras and Stormtroopers comparison? These two couldn’t be any more different. Stormtroopers are a fragile ambush squad while thompson paras are the best/2nd best assault squad in the game. Muni investment in upgrades is completely irrelevant, different factions/roles/designs.
