It is better against inf., so it is a very good all round tank now.

Seriously, dude? Can you provide a patch note about buffing centaur in the last 6 month? And centaur is an AI, AA tank that cant fight tank, how can it translate into "good all round tank"

Do you compare it when they are 4 or 5 men?

You can see i write "4 man sections"

in ur dreams

Out of cover, 4 man sections win gren with 1 model and a tini bit of HP, for a more expensive squad and sections is worse on the move.

Tactical flexibility

Terrible on the move
Cannot build free sandbags or trenches
Grenade that doesn’t help when flanking or against charging units
Poor survivability

Infantry sections are worse on the move.
Pio can built sanbags and come in T0. You have sandbags event before you have gren.
Rifle nade have longest range of all nades as a trade off. Gren doesn't good when flanking because they are not designed to do so.
Also, gren come with fause while being cheaper than sections, and they receive weapon upgrade right on the field.

I like the idea of applying target size penalty only with 5 man sections, and want to add some of my ideas to it.

So, infantry sections wilk stat as a 4 man squad, have 0.8 target size both in and out of cover, instead of 2 slot, they have only 1 slot, but have an upgrade give them 1 bren lmg onthe field, like gren 's Mg42, available after platoon Cp. Then, bolster and weapons rack get a rework.

Weapons rack research unlock bren gun and piat to pick up at base. So you can come back to get double bren on a 4 man sections with size of 0.8 full time.

Bolster now an upgrade you must purchase separately for each squad with some munition and have to reinforce to get 5th man. This upgrade will apply the out of cover target size penalty of 0.9 on the squad and also take up the only weapon slot the squad have. So, you can have a more durable 5 man squad but only with 1 bren gun and some penalty.

I hope this can make sections become more versatile with the ability to get weapons on the field, and make bolster and rack become choices to take, each with advantages and drawbacks of it own.
