How about giving a an m1 carbines like doctrine to the airborne instead of bars? Call it Fast Finger and give it a shorter cool down.

and the paradropping in support weapons idea is really cool and could be useful, especially if it included hmgs, mortars and snipers but as a t3? that's a bit steep. In the old eir it'd be fine but since t3's cost 75pp it's just a lot.

Another idea would be to have a doctrine that gives the Garand to the AB instead of carbines (which suck btw) even the webley does more dps than the carbine.

maybe even the grease gun, which does more dps than the carbines (engineer gun)

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

I play vs good players most of the time - if someone has half an idea how to counter rangers, they can counter airborne with thompsons.

That's a costly support team to be honest, unless you have all the PP in the world to spend.
And it wont give you a sniper rifle.

Airborne Squad and Supply Drop call-in = 280 Manpower
Aerial Support Teams Mg and Mortar call-in = 500 Manpower 70 Muni
Flexibility to call in supply Drop or not depending on circumstance = priceless

Raid and Supply Drops are much cheaper than Aerial Support Teams.  I have Airborne reinforcements, so that's 9 Airborne, which is four sets of two Airborne call-ins with one spare, which can use the supply drop for the Mg and mortar... AST is useless, even if Raid and Supply Drops didn't make it redundant, it would still be a poor T3.  TBA please.

I hope you mean you'll be nerfing the axis supply drop severely so they're at all in line with allied supply drops?

Because a forum post should be like a woman's skirt. Long enough to cover the subject material, but short enough to keep things interesting.

Like I said, the 'updated' version will include the sniper and new skins.
Supply drops will also not be as common as they are now.

On the topic of the original post, Airborne really don't have a need to paradrop a mortar. .30 cals, yes, mortars no.

Supply drop was an awesome idea for a t1-2 as airborne (not even being op), don't remove that too because of your stupid idea of "a whole paradroppable force", please.
Other supply drop which gives a free schrek and the awesome axis mortar could use some balance.

Allied supply drops don't need nerfing, they need to be limited to one drop per player, and then supply drops removed as noob advantages for both factions.
