The Pathfinder is the American sniper (doctrinal), it is stated in the video. I thought it looked more like a 5 man G43 squad. He mentioned something about RNG giving a bonus with the unit. Still, that's pretty good and the squad wasn't expensive either.

So, if we were having troubles when facing a 2 man sniper squad, and they create a 5 man squad?

You're not listening, they aren't Snipers in the traditional sense. They're more like old Vet 2 Grenadiers with G43 upgrade.

The rear echelon is a tier 0 unit and the american starter unit. It can't lay mines no matter what. The US factions are lacking in mines and their only mine layer is the M20 which only has an anti tank mine. Which means they have no non-doctrinal AI mine at all.

Really some posts before I saw US got the combat engineers armed with Grease gun, my impression is that US will be like the old Brit, u have to tech to T1 or T2 to get Engineer (sapper) to lay mines. No way Relic can create a faction with no access to AI mines.

Or you can listen to the alpha tester who has been playing with them for the past 3 weeks when I say: No, they do not have access to an non-doctrinal AI mine.

They just did... they dont need AI mines. That is what infantry and heavy ai power tanks are for... i dont understand why people are in denial and compare WFA to vCoH factions... THEY ARENT THE SAME. Watch the stream again, and hear it word by word. The weapons racks in the base are there for a reason. Every unit can grab them for a reason.

No they are just like regular upgrades. You can't get rid of them unless they drop.
Okay I see, one question, can US inf unequip their weapons from the rack, like if I have rifleman with 2 BAR, can I switch to 2 bazooka?

Personally, I don't like the idea of not having snipers in american side, it is a mandatory unit.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Yeah, what can I say, Panzer Elite was full of snipers.
