How about an ability that reduces the setup time of MG42s, Pak 38, and mortars by anywhere from 25-35%?

It kind of fits the Blitz concept and can help diversify Blitzkrieg, so it's not just a tank spam doctrine.

Actually you can code it easilly.  There is a setup value for those weapons that you can change, MG42 for example has a 2.7s setup.

There's even a toggle to allow instant setup.

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.

They even had old veterancy of the MG reduce setup time, I don't see the problem, seems fine to me.

We are serious about enforcing this, and I am sure you all want to be able to have your balance thought considered by the development team with some biased, sensationalist coming into your thread and ruining it.

Seems like a great idea. Defensive *should* get the ninja pak when the doctrine is done...Terror gets 20% damage to mortars/mgs. So why not faster weapon team setup times for blitz? and 25-30% from 2.7 seconds is 1.89-2.025 seconds...reasonable enough.

More infantry spam, more tank spam, this game is about fucking spam. If you don't have a lot of one thing you have a lot of another...

I think jack is right. I also think that if it were implemented, then some mgs might make is past 2xp(death). I also think jack will counter with continued and more intense stacking.

i could see -15 - 20% setup time being a nice T2 for blitz and it fits in well.  Call it Fast Deployment.

Right, I remember now it couldn't be coded through veterancy only.
