So USF's Recon Company is widely regarded as being very lacklustre. While that is a discussion fit for another topic, I just wanted to share a small suggestion on how to make Recon more enticing by giving I&R Pathfinders more utility.
So I&R Pathfinders are unlocked at 2 CP and cost 280 MP for a three model unit. They are a fragile recon unit that can call in an effective quick-strike 155mm arty barrage. And that is essentially where their utility starts and ends.
So my suggestion is to add the "Assassinate" ability to them from AA, alongside a single scoped M1 Garand so that this ability can be used. This Assassinate ability is a single shot that kills one model of your choosing, and could cost 10 or 15 muni with a 15-20 second cooldown (up for debate). This would grant them more utility and give USF a makeshift marksman. It might even entice more Recon Company usage.
Thoughts?
