whenever my Royal engineer squad is reinforced, new member is equiped with mine detector so eventually my royal engineer squad has 4 mine detectors and 1 bren.


this is screenshot. i quit game after feb 25 patch.


edit : grenadiers mg42-upgraded get additional mg42 whenever they reinforce. this is another balance patch?

I guess this is the "unintended behavior" they were talking about

I wasn't able to repro this with Flamethrowers (any Faction) or the Boys AT. Which units were you using?

I don't know which/how many upgrades are affected by this.

However, Heavy Engineer Anvil upgrade is definitely affected; each reinforcing engineer comes out with a free Vickers.

Somebody also found that Rear Echelon vet3 bonus (5-man squad) actually allows the squad to grow to infinite sizes:

Volks: duplicates a 2nd shreck
Ober: duplicates a 2nd LMG34

RET: with Rifle company, duplicates a flamethrower. At vet3, you can keep reinforcing increasing the squad size.

Guards: from the little test i did, duplicates PTRS, not sure about DPs

Grens: ... LMG42

Anyway it should be tested with all squads which have droppable weapons.
-Should be worth testing: squads with 2 weapons after dropping one (LT after picking, PG with shrecks, Paras...), Stormtroopers with AT upgrade, AT Partisans, etc.

A few other Vet bugs:
- Tommies keep replicating their Scoped Enfield rifle when reinforcing
- Royal Engineers no longer benefit from a reduction in their reinforcement cost at Vet3
