Assault engineer have no snares, become weak in late and are doctrinal (this command issue no faction issue).

SP are not mainline infatry due to pop and reinforcement but I would have not problem replacing them with vg as starting unit

Tommies do not have allot less durability DPS, DPS on the move, are cover depend and UKF is messed up faction

Hmg-42 are support weapon they where introduced in T0 because USF rolfstomped Ostheer, they are not really an issue, even if it was I would not trouble swapping them for grens

Interesting analysis and suggestion.

I would like to add factor into to the equation.

Imo infatry have simply too much fire power for their time frame and that bleed manpower making HMG less disable that mostly cost time via retreat.

Making HMG unattractive also make mortar unattractive.

So although I understand the point of view I can not agree with some of the suggestions. Imo earlier Penal in their current implementation is simply a big NO.

Imo one should test postponing such powerful units.

For instance one could change the the OKW starting unit to VG and have Penal built quicker cost less but start with less weapon and having to upgrade.

(I personally would even go so far as to redesign Penal as dirty cheap infatry armed with smgs and having MP-40 replace the STG for OKW having OKW start with VGs. Probably allow the MP-upgrade earlier to keep the "offensive" orientation of OKW.)

Soviets:
I would buff the maxim by making it suppress quicker. I would not change penals coming out earlier.

Ostheer:
Change of starting MP is a good one, but it already feels pretty slow for me as OST player to get units out. I'd increase the buildtime of overperforming tiers instead of punishing MPs

Glad that you agree. If you want argue EHP more I suggest you do it Sander93 since a sense a hostility toward me.


Well it happens and I am ok with it, it is others that have problems with me being right.


If ones has ambushed another squad with commandos one should make full use the nuke grenade and then finish the squad, taking advantage of the "first strikes" bonus when available and thus take minimal damage which can then auto-heal available at vet 1.
