They're making Fallschrimjagers (1)cheaper, better and available sooner. (2)Okay, are they at least going to make USF Paratroopers available at CP2? Nope you still have to depend on lame Riflemen.

1)No they just arrive sooner with worse stats.
2)6-man with x2 almost MG42s that fires on the move for 2 CP. Ughhhhh.

They are complaining Strums don't "scale well into late game" (3)ugh who the hell cares? Its an engineer unit? How well do Rear Echeleons or Soviet Combat Engineers scale into late game? Do they get buffs? Nope.

3)Everyone cares when they repair faster and safer. Rear get the 5th man and will get the zooks ,Combat Engineers take 0 bonus damage while repairing (at vet3) and is easy as hell to vet with the flamethrower. Royal engineers get the heavy sapper upgrade. Against all those sturm was getting nothing but an absurd amount of veterancy requirements. Last week I had a game with Sturms getting 42 kills but still being only vet3.
(If you are gonna say take the Pschreck then good luck with the mines)

And a 10 MP increase to Volks minus 50 MP starting for OKW I doubt is going to make a huge difference.

What else do you want from them ? Take the unit and make it Riflemans mop ?

Wait, you're saying that they need a survivability buff then proceed to say they need a survivability nerf to gren levels?

Was trying to say Pgrens my mistake thanks for that.

And 2 FG42's deal higher damage than 1 MG42 and it gets higher the closer your enemy gets to you.

Just 0.05 difference at 35 range and whopping 6 at 0 range.(Sure that is intended) But don't forget LMG42 is only one weapon and as the total DPS grens will still be better at long range and same at mid range untill the falls get their 3rd and 4th FG42s. Also don't forget that grens get the beautiful Rifle Nade without risking themselves but falls will need to get into open to use theirs.

We by all means could have pushed them into the full on infiltration squad role (see commandos and stormtroopers)

I seriously wished that you have pushed. Their current camo is only working either you are there before your opponent (which in many cases won't happen since you will want falls behind the lines and those lines are closer to your opponent) or your opponent was fallen asleep on the keyboard and you got there.

I think they will not be overpowered or anything like that since they don't have the chrushing power of commandos or stormtrooper in CQC and are as you say glass cannons.

With the current changes they will be even harder to use IMO. Let me explain why :

1- They start with Kar98s so at first they will need to fight at long range or will get destroyed by many allied units. (So at first they are bad right ?)

2- When they get their first upgrade they will want to fight in long-mid range still. BUT a 4 man squad with identical survivability with Volks. We know how Volks face IS, Penals, Rifles etc. but that is 260MP spammable Volks not the 320 (with current changes) "Elite Infantry" Falls. And also to close the gap to throw the infamous grenade they are not durable as PGrens or Obers to do that and will definently drop at least 1 model before throwing the nade.

3-When they get their second upgrade it is the Falls we currently know with a little harder punch. But I still
seriously doubt will they deal more than the Ober. (That must be the trade off right ? For survivability you get better aggressiveness.) Thus Obers still will outshine and outperform Falls IMO (And with changes Obers are also coming faster so I definently see no point of Falls).


I think for those reasons they need to get the commando camo without any changes to current survivability and be deployed at 3CP. Because it looks like only this change can save them from being an inferior Ober.

Lately I was thinking about keeping their current RA with commando camo. They don't have the demolishing power in close range like commandos/stormtroopers but will be more of a all-rounder specialist/infiltrator.

Could be fun.

Still no love for grens (meme)
