Regular rifle squads kill the flakvierling gun, not sure if this is intended, but seems a little silly.

Pak36, as described by Ray- you get a unit that only kills light vehicles, for a faction made up of light vehicles...its basically there to die and be recrewed so the enemy can slaughter you with it.


I realize its supposed to kill stuff like t17s/stags/etc, but nobody uses this unit, and after trying it out tonight in a 1v1 vs Ray, I have to say it needs some love.  Give it some sort of buff vs infantry or the possibility to buy treadbreaker or something, but right now all it does is die and then get recrewed to kill you.  No reason whatsoever to buy it.


As for the flakvierling, no complaints other than those noted above, although I think it should be paired with the wirblewind in an unlock(t2) while the pak36 gets a buff and is moved to t3 with the 88.  Right now the groupings don't particularly make a lot of sense...in order to get vierling/88 for a fortress europe company with the associated buffs, you have to spend 5 unlock points, whereas if you aren't using fortress europe, it makes no sense to get the t2 unlock when the t3 unlock is clearly far superior and contains the same sort of units.

To be honest what i think is that the 36 needs a pop reduction, maybe increase scratch damage a little. I keep one of em around on my luft.

Anyway, It makes no sense for the 36 to be more pop than the latht
