Please hear me out on this one before judging

I have an idea that's designed to keep newer players interested without having to wait for 60 games before they get to level 7. Make the King Tiger/Pershing or calliope/ Tiger/ AVRE + MK VI etc available from the very beginning at level 1 and just allow for the rest of the unlocks to be more battle advantages and/ or buffs for those heavy tanks. This will allow for people to enjoy their heavies from the very beginning but they'll have to wait till they get to level 7 before they get buffs for their tanks or other offmap battle advantages.
I understand that people could smurf on accounts with heavies from the get go, but if everyone can do it with every faction does it matter? Then there could be a new tier 3 advantage to replace the unit that used to be there that may buff said unit ex: better armor, penetration, extra repair etc.

I personally would love to have doctrines have all their unit unlocks at Tier 1, I hate making a company that is going to be based around a unit but have to wait 50 games before I can actually get that.

+1

Having to change what you've been playing with for 100 games just because you got a new unit is annoying. Personally, I don't want to play against those that have units I can't counter so it just ends up with high lvl players playing each other or nobs playing each other or a stomp. Level the playing field.

That's like offering Beer to fuck the fat chick. It will work for a while, but it's not gonna last. Not only that, but there is zero motivation for the Fat chick to loose weight.

The point of heavies/super heavies is they are supposed to be 'rare' or not seen every battle. you make them available from the beginning you won't see panthers anymore lol

i see plenty of panthers out even against upper level accounts they're just more reliable than a tiger or king tiger, plus you can have more than one of them, and they're faster.

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.

How about we let people spend PP to gain XP?

If I really want a tiger, I can use all my PP to level faster and get my tiger, and then spend the PPs I gain later in the doctrines etc...

That's an intriguing idea.
