Unit suggestion thread:

[IJoe]

  - this ain't no balance thread.
'Though the suggestions above are funny.

[Max 'DonXavi' von B.]

IJoe, I think you know best that such suggestions are not what the devs consider as good for balance. That's the reason why I wrote that line of text.

How about an observation post that spawns 4 volks like the repair bunker spawns pios?  Just call it the sentry post instead. Or maybe it's a 50 munition upgrade to the normal OP. I see it as a way to drive off ninja capping conscripts.

[IJoe]

Nah,- that's gonna be either too expensive, or a bit OP.
Oh! And it sounds rather boring as well
Besides, it's going to lead to some lack of micro and constitute to bad field presence, or even favor it, which is bad for game-play, IMO.

Imagine you just have to click on your OPs to prevent the enemy from capping..

I thought Jaegers light infantry high trained infantry while Gerbirgsjaegers are mountain soldiers, or are they the same?

Gerbirgsjagers are highly trained. I don't think the Germans really referred any soldiers of theirs as simply Jagers during the war. Schutzen might be what you're looking for, but they are the equivalent of privates. In addition, Fallschirmjagers were paratroopers.

Could be wrong, though.

There were Jägerdivisionen. Basicaly they were light infantry with equipment smiliar to the Gebirgsjäger.

I remembered 2 years ago, the devs have 2 concepts of the german truck, one loaded with ammo, one loaded with fuel tank. I have the idead that they could be use as  sector secure, with a later upgrade the ammo truck can decrase cooldown of skills and the fuel truck can has more fuel boost. Additionally, if a fuel or ammo truck secure a strategic point, the strategic point will work ammo/fuel point depend on the truck secure it. And again... It just poped up in my mind.

I'm surprised that no-one suggested the Flakpanzer IV Mobelwagen, yet, suggested the Gepard, the Flakpanzer I and even the field-modded Flakpanzer T-34 (searched the thread).

The Mobelwagen is very unique, seeing that it needs to have its shields fully down to even THINK about fighting infantry, and it uses the same 3.7cm FlaK as the Ostwind (prototype had the 2cm Flakvierling), but I don't have complete knowledge of its usage, except for the fact that they were built on damaged Pz IV chassis from the Eastern Front.


Keeping up with the previous topic, I like Stavka's idea, each faction usually has a different way of securing points (PE have the 223, British have their HQs, Axis and US have the Observation Posts), it might just work.

[Desert_Fox]

This one?

[S1lv3rWolf]

Yep, that's the Flakvierling variant.
