Paras are 28mp to reinforce. That's what I crew them with, just cuz it's nice to be able to reinforce from the beacons after you get pushed by inf a bit or a leig hits the crew or whatever. On top of that, you don't have a lot of cheaper options as usf for weapon crewing; the only thing cheaper than 28 being rear echelons, which aren't that much cheaper (25mp). I think the airdrop reinforce is worth the 3 extra manpower to reinforce, considering the pack howie won't be losing a ton of crew members like a real infantry squad, but when it does, you can stay on the field for that much more time instead of pulling it back.

Riflemen buffs would completly brake the game at this point. USF was weak before all the changes but now they are actually the best allied faction for 1v1 and 2v2 (depending on map and match-up). No way should they get a buff to their mainline infantry.

I Agree, having simple things such as Cav riflemen or (which is literally rifleman with better CQC and a snare) mixes things up a little, its honestly just what was needed.
I like the revamped mechanised in general, it Feels like it covers most bases, up until mediums hit the field. I honestly dont think they need a buff (rifles), because even though they come online at vet 2, the bonuses received make it worth it. if there were a buff, i'd really only want a slightly lower reinforcement cost, because its biggest weakness is manpower bleed, but every faction has to have their downfalls, for USF its inft cost and limited lategame (but hey, at least I can still be competitive in the late game).



To be honest, I don't rely much on Cav rifles. Yeah they have great CQC, but closing the distance to use that power sometimes proves troublesome, unless shotblockers are involved. I usually only have maybe 2 at most in my lineup, rifleman can engage earlier, and usually trade down less.
Ass Engies were never really intended to take into late game inft, and were usually better suited for utility roles. Mines, demos, repair speed and critical repair.

Yeah lets just forget that this commander also got overpowered Jaegers and busted Stuka loiter. Oh and how nice of balance team to bundle 3 abilities into one slot (forward receivers, goliath, flares). Totally not biased btw.
