I point out the problems but I dunno how to fix. This leave to the discussion or Relic. I didn't say removing it, but currently it is way too insane.
I legit dont know how to fix this either. Distributing weapons for USF must have sounded like a cool idea, but its simply ridiculous. You can simply upgrade your rear archelon with two m1919's and beat obersoldaten - if youve got the munitions, then who needs riflemen? USF doesnt need a core infantry - upgrade any squad with LMG's and bazookas and you dont need support weapons. Its just easy to blob all your specialty squads and practically any squad that can upgrade to a weapon - and give them all weapons. Blobbing at its best. Or you dont need to blob as any squad with two m1919's can combat any two of the enemy's. Why shouldnt Ostheer get to upgrade panzergrenadiers, grenadiers, and pios with two LMG42's/schrecks, i mean its that ridiculous. Just my two cents in how American infantry can overrule most support. (You can practically win with only riflemen with BAR's and bazookas, as well as their smoke grenades)
When i first used infantry doctrine, i thought it was proposterous that at 3 CP your base gained the ability for free and m1919's cost the same as BAR's. Nice job COMPLETELY skipping BARs. It needs an upgrade price and its price per m1919 jacked up high - for starters.
