Soviet doesn't, hence smoke grenades on the Shock Troops themselves.

Permanently BannedRangers are fine if not even a bit too good

I was always amused by the description of the Rangers - specialists of precise sniper combat, without sniper guns. May be an M1C/D as an alternative for the Rangers would be nice. In general, the Rangers are units of close reconnaissance and sabotage, so they must be an analogue of the German Jaegers or Stormtroopers: they appear from a neutral building to have camouflage and diversion abilities. Because in the current state it is 5 people Paratrooper clones with the simultaneous possibility of having the Thompsons and Bazookas.
I've always thought they should spawn with a beefier Garand (maybe 10 damage and better accuracy at all ranges) compared to riflemen, and good enough that the thompson upgrade is a considerable sacrifice of long range dps.
As it is them spawning with carbines is silly, and even sillier since said carbines are identical to the paratrooper ones. The carbine itself is superior to the Garand for whatever reason, except at very long range.
But as far as rangers exist now idk about giving them any abilities. Maybe sprint would be nice. Other than that I think they're fine.

They should get an ability with their Thompson's though. Maybe tactical assault but that's kinda boring to just copy it from tommy paras. Using the third weapon slot with tommys is too risky for dropping

American WW2 films are not a valid argument as a balance opinion.

Result Vote and this moment Garand win for now
if i remember Reason is Loadout Change it Hard ?
and Garand Stats Should Better Than Normal garand like Obersoldaten Kar98k ?
edit I Find Mr Firesparks Answer About It
the carbine on the ranger are actually the same elite carbine used on the paratrooper. It's an elite carbine that's actually one of the best rifle in the game and better than the rifle garand in every way.
the ranger carbine have a dps profile of 1.8-9.9. That's around the same as the volks stg44's 1.9-8.0. 5 of them on a squad is amazing.
the rifleman garand have a dps profile of 1.67-6.76. It is strictly inferior to the elite carbine in.
switching the ranger to the rifleman garand is a straight nerf
is it misleading for an elite rifle to use the same visual model as the rear echelon carbine? yes, but the other choice is to just use the garand model.
interested that over 50% of the people vote for to switch the ranger to a garand, a straight nerf.
Or Carry BAR Stats better than normal bar like Commando Bren LMG ?
only Ask

Rangers description changed to paras with the lmg upgrade locked out
5 models w. 0.8ra = 6 models with 1 ra
I think 5 with .8 RA has more EHP than 6 models.
