CODGUY finally has made a valid point that isn’t just trolling. Lol

10 popcap is quite a lot for what you get. Rangers are fine but could use a slight popcap reduction from 10 to 9.

They really cost 10 pop? End my life.

That must make it the highest popped infantry squad in the game.

For comparison sake, most elites squads are 9pop.

Commandos, Obers, Falls, PG, Guards, Paras.

My controls weren't working
And if they were, you were playing dishonorably,
And if you weren't, you were playing without skill,
And if you were, it's not fun to play that way,
And if it is, you only care about winning.

Bible of Scrublord, Psalt 3:16.

They don't need anything, the "problem" is that they are bland. But some would argue that there is beauty in simplicity.

It's rough that none of their first game identity aside from Thompsons could make it in.

No other infantry units start with actual AT weapons, and so neither do they. Zookas are already available to potentially literally every American infantry unit anyway. Fire Up's suppression immunity is dead and buried 'cause that was goofy.

Yeah but at least they get the elite zooks now, and they can equip 3 of them if they want

If all 3 penetrate thats 300 dmg, the most AT damage any infantry squad can do at once i believe

Well if anything i still think they need something even if its the sprint like the capt, lt, and major. Once they reach vet 3 they are able to sprint out of combat.

I think they should be able to, once they get vet upgrade their Thompsons to IR stgs (for free, they alredy paid for the thompsons) and it also comes with 2 Ober lmg34s for the remaining models (not one for each, each gets 2) do really set them apart from rifles and paras as elite infantry

Ironically, this distinction is also technically not according to their first-game identity since Zookas mostly just friggin' sucked there against even medium tanks

I mean they had the accuracy of a dart in a hurricane but they did a lot of damage if they actually hit and they were rear armor shots (because they'd never pen the front of anything lmao). Also fire-up let rangers outrun a lot of tanks lol.
