RMC Suggestion
« on: June 07, 2011, 02:29:20 PM »
Hi all, one thing I have noticed when playing as the British is the lack of infantry after a certain point in the game. I understand that it is all about quality than quantity with the British but they can be very easily outgunned at times. I was watching a documentary on the Royal Marines and they had a thing called the "mad minute". In the mad minute, they would fire their Lee Enfields at a rate of 30 rounds a minute, an extraordinary volume of fire for a bolt action rifle.
It would be a nice addition if the RMC had this ability in game. A suggestion would be it costing 50 munitions, requiring the second command post and lasting 30 seconds with a recharge time of 30 seconds or a minute, tripling or quadrupling the rate of fire. It would greatly balance the game, where you see RMC being taken on by volksgrenadiers with MP40's and losing.
Thanks all, great if you could make a consideration.

Heroic charge already increases damage output as well as the defensive bonus as well as the offensive bonus given passively by LTs. I don't think this is necessary. RMC already have rather good troops. There's no way volks are dominating you unless you are using your troops wrong.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

Tommies wont loose to a MP40 squad If they have BRENs and an LT behind them and they do have a mad minute (quick accurate fire)  when heroic charge is active. But you cant expect that they will win all the times to Volks. What would be the point of getting Volks and upgrating them with assault weapons?

Ha ha, Brits. That "mad minute" sounds a lot like the suppression volley of PE  :P

However, I believe you are incorrect!

Definitely not my best game but to prove a point......

OIY! Get your filthy hands off the Maus!
