Storm trooper rework is awful

then they need to be given a 5th man like every other cqc ambushing squad

I tend to lean this towards the L2P issue. Wanting Storms to perform better with their intended role and then defending that saying they can't take on blobs, but commandos can because they have 5 man squads with a good grenade. I'd say if your taking on blobs with any single unit, you're doing it wrong. Even Brummbars should be supported.

Like Partisans or Falls?

Only 1 cqc ambush unit has 5 men.
That same unit has the worst combat vet in game, getting lowest values for accuracy and rec acc.

Commando is already Terminator

if they have more accuracy combat vet, they will take the bren gun and tear everything away

And they already have a first strike bonus (+ 50% sten gun accuracy)

Storms have their own DPS boosting ability at a press of a button.
Ost has ambush camo with 50% accuracy bonus as well, both grens, PGrens and HMGs can use and benefit from it.

Commandos have strong start, but they fall behind with vet(and that's why the strong start).

Their boosting ability is meaningless beacause they are only 4 unit

I like the old Stormtrooper version way better. Currently I dislike the way they are. They are bad. Rely heavily on surprise attacks.

Give them the STG option back. MP40 is pretty crap profile. You have to keep very close range like melee range with this weapon. Unlike shock troops and commandos, medium range works for them relatively well.

Can you please tell me what made old storms more interesting that the new ones. How were they different from pgrens with camo, apart from Tactical Advance, after they have infiltrated and got their stgs?

10 range is not melee range, and I don't see how the fact that they rely on surprise attacks makes them really bad. And it's not like they have 0 survivability and will lose to any squad if they don't pop out of camo in their face. Their mp40 profile is better than what commandos have, have you not seen their capacity to wipe squads on retreat from inside a 250?

There are no other squads like the new storms in wehrmacht, I fail to see why you can't use pgrens with camo in place of the old storms.

I don't mean to offend you, but I just really like the new storms and I think that they actually feel special, while being quite useful, I never used the old storms apart from testing them once or twice, they never felt interesting or unique in almost any way to me.
