as long as there are only buffs in a doctrine to special units, no one will use the regular units. if commandos gets +1% more accuracy than tommies, i wont use tommies. maybe there should be more cross....platform? buffs. AB support units get elite armor, and regular support units get nothing... well fuck id be dumb not to get AB support weapons for everything right?

thats my point...but Rangers are the exception to the rule? the other doc infantry units get loads of stuff but rangers, bleh. AB, and Luft get new weapons. SE gets flame grens, mando's get a lot of doc abilities, which are basically the equiv of rangers.

I just dont get why Rangers get no love. Is it the elite armor?

I think its because they dont want lionel happy

[Malgoroth]

My guess would be that the elite armor is probably a factor. Mandos, SE fire-fucker grens, and falls don't have it, and AB only has it when they're moving.

I can see the devs misgivings for giving Rangers suppression-less BARs, but if they were to work MY ideas into the American faction it would allow for wiggle room with that sort of thing.

We seriously considered all your ideas in a meeting. Then we decided you yell too much in game and said fuck it.

[Malgoroth]

What?? Me? Yell??

Why I never...

That's just so...

Goodness gracious!

[tank130]

LOL

elite armor or not i feel that a proper price for the lmg on rangers would balance that? 85-90mu. plus they'd just be getting one.

Remove SF from BARs.

Add a new BAR upgrade in addition to the current one;
'BAR Slow-auto fire': BAR with Bren RoF and slightly increased accuracy. Would be cheaper then normal bars and trade raw close range DPS for more damage and accuracy at med/long range. Would also only grant 1 BAR (or two with Inf Oversupplied).

AB can purchase 3 Grease Guns for 40-50 MU, and the top T4 that currently gives them garands would also increase the number of grease guns to 5.

Riflemen can purchase an M1919A6 .30 cal with Infantry Equiptment.

Rangers can purchase 2x BARs (85 MU) with Infantry Equiptment.

Add a 4-man Rifleman squad with +5 HP/man; armed with 3 BARs and a Carbine (280 MP, 90 MU) with a toggle button locking them down and pretty much granting perpetual SF until the unit is unlocked. "Bipod Support Team".

Why would an overhaul like that be necessary?

[Poppi]

T2 unlock for a game nobody likes on AB. Lol no thanks. Make it free and im sure no one will still like it

[MonthlyMayhem]

Why would an overhaul like that be necessary?

Because LMG's are useless on AB. They're a hit and run unit, you really can't fire on the move.

i think scoped mp44s really changed a lot of things in EIRR. Now seems 90% of axis inf can trololol over Rangers.

[smurfORnot]

Now seems 90% of axis inf can trololol over Rangers.

only terror has them...and since there are 6 faction on axis,you can do the math 

[Poppi]

lets see 6 times .90 carry the ^-2  so divide by half....

+ now that everyone uses terror. 1000%

[Jodomar]

You can not trolololol over a smg ranger squad with scoped mp44's. If so you are using your rangers wrong.

[RikiRude]

my rangers did fine against them, and think about it, if they didnt have mp44s they'd have an lmg on them.

[WildZontar]

Get back on topic you buttheads.

MP40 Volks and LMG grens could already do that. Rangers kind of suck balls.

[Malgoroth]

That is very true. Before scoped mp44s were implemented all my grens were rolling around with LMG42s that could fire on the move. The new terror didn't change my company composition much aside from that.

[jackmccrack]

I really miss using those.
