My only idea here is to give the commander the Forward Supply Station ability, it would even out the playing field with the Soviet Airborne because now they get a forward retreat point and the much needed repairs which the Ost is lacking, especially with the health of the Tiger and more so with the PZ IV H/J being added now.

Just a few items of feedback I noticed while briefly testing last night.

- Airborne Guards feel pretty strong with 3X DP but need to have their veterancy redone as they currently have the crappy PPSH Guard Vet (Trip Wires and nobody wants Grenade range at Vet 3 for smoke grenades lol).

- SVTs Drop either feels like it does not work or doesn't provide a meaningful DPS boost for Cons. Might be a little weak?

It simply needs the ability to upgrade to a 5 man squad like the Brits, which should be limited to only Grenadier and Piooners. Should be available at Battle Phase 1 or 2. Same cost as Brits or more if neccessary. Squad wipes occur too frequently with Axis as Allies have mortars that are more overall devastating and tanks against AI.

That is what it simply needs, Like German Infantry Doctrine, simply a default version but nerfed in performance a little. That would be a balance. Brits counter Wehrmacht much more easily than Wehrmacht does. Brits Tommies although a bit more, performs better overall than base grens. I am not saying that they should exactly be the same, but survivability of gren must increase.

If you compare the utility available between the two classes, in the long run Tommy will be twice as efficient than single grenadier with all upgrades.

Brits counter Wehr easily in comparison to Wehrmacht since they have more or less similar units that Brits overall performs more consistently and better.

Wehr just needs Infantry Bolster Squad, restricted only to Piooners and Grenadiers, solve survivability and repair issues. Should be avaible either Battle Phase 1 or 2, same timing as Brits or later. Better keep Panzergrenadier the way they otherwise they will be too strong.

Is this a good idea?
