Ostruppen With MG42's

This is exactly why I think that Ostruppen should have a different LMG upgrade. I have suggested multiple times that Osttruppen should use BREN guns, BARs and DP-28s to represent ZB vz. 26, 27, 30 and 33 Czechoslovakian captured guns (the design that would become the BREN Gun), Polish Browning wz.1928 (BAR copies) and Russian captured DP-28s.

The Germans captured lots of these guns and issued them to rear area troops such as Ostruppen.

By using a different weapon there would be less confusion by players as to why Ostruppen LMGs are vastly weaker than Grenadier MG42s.

Replace the LMG42 upgrade with “Captured LMG”. More historical accuracy and more importantly it is easier to understand why Ostruppen LMGs have different performance.

I agree it can be confusing, Mabye they could add a UI indicator much like Ranger bazookas, Commando brens or Paratrooper bazookas to indicate to players their inefficiency with the weapon if they do not implement a new weapon.
