Profile of Aarotron

the combined arms was trully gutted. for effectively 30 munitions cost reduction you lose half of the benefits it provides and further halves what remained. If point of this is to standardize it with things like fml or valiant assault its not really good, as combined arms requires more effort to make it work compared to other 2.

Id like if the foward observation post for 251 would camo infantry in its near vicinity. It should NOT give ambush damage, but work as way to regroup to reinforce near front and reward soft retreating when its used well.

Compared to cost of combined arms, its not worth the trade off, removing half of the benefits and halving rest for mere 35 muni decrease is not any more worth it. Smoke drop is still pretty bad as compared to other simular abilities it cant cover anything other short of single weapons team, it should get few more shells and get way bigger scatter so it could provide effective smoke screen. Cp could be ramped up if its too effective early on.

Not sure about pershing. Repair speed increasement through lower health with damage resistance is decent but it alone does not save unit. Speed increase by vet is handy but it could use something else. adding pintlemount mg would be intresting test, as its main cannon does not wipe infantry same way it used to and it could add more reliable source of anti infatry damage.

Barrage for dozer is welcome. Range and mobility buffs i dont belive it will save ez 8 as its still stuck in subpar commander. Rangers getting garands is welcome change, although i wish they could received some upgrade for longer distance combat, like inbuilt buff for Bar to get better accuracy from ranges like the bazookas get buffs with rangers.

RE rifle grenades become effectively weak now. They had meager damage from the get go and the redeeming quality in them was that they could autofire them at buildings.

Falls in their current form, Stuka smoke drop + recon, Valiant Assault, Airborne Assault. Fallschirmjager camo and heavy fortifications are the only abilities that make the doctrine "defensive".

its more of a well rounded doctrine with little bit of everything. Buffs are certainly more oriented towards the aggressive parts yes but repair ability would give bit more support oriented function. Also it would help leviating the lack of repair units.

I’ve crossed out the abilities that are so bad they are rarely used with black, as if an ability is not used it is not contributing to the commander feeling unique in use

Mortar halftrack is not exactly bad. It performs admirably but its held back by being located in one really bad doctfine and one actually decent one. It would only require addition to third doctrine and maybe small cost decrease to 30 fuel as with usf counterpart.
