Guards assault group - completely useless. it comes to 5 CP, it didn’t even become cheaper after the M5 was cheaper. I have been saying for a long time already that the Guards Assault Group needs redesign: my proposal to make them as Rangers anolog: come with Guard Mosin / SVT-40 can buy 4 Thompson and 2 Bazooka.

The thompsons and bazookas would really fit the theme of Lend lease. Also a 0.50 instead of the dshk

Do what relic and all others did - just forget that unit and commander ever existed.

Was hoping that they would count the Airborne Guards as Assault Guards so that the Assault Group Guards could sneak into scope but alas it wasn't meant to be. Sucks because with the recent changes to DSHK and M4C Lend Lease has the chance to be relevant.

It's beyond unlikely we'll see any redesign at this point in the patch. Price cuts are possible though.

Stick it at 450 MP: then you're paying 240 MP for the halftrack and 210 for the Lend Lease Guards. That makes it a highly cost efficient midgame bundle like Recon's Airdrop Group, but the bundled halftrack and late timing makes it highly inefficient to spam.

Just tried them out, I like them but seem to die too fast. And yes, sucks they didnt get any changes.

Prioritize vehicle dosnt work on the Sherman.

Yea I agree - Thompson would be really cool but was this historically correct?

Kind of, Red Army got afaik 100 000 SMGs by lend-lease, but they didn't get widespead usage becuase of limited 0.45 ammunition. The bigest part of them was M1928 Thompsons, it seems little bit different from M1 Thompson, but mainly the same thing.


IMO, if assault guards was just call-in unit unit with exclusive upgrades (you can give them 4 Thompsons OR 2 Bazookas) and started with Mosins Rifles or SVT-40, it will be much more interesting choice.
