Naval Infantries in next patch ( i hope so)
« on: August 01, 2011, 12:48:23 PM »
There is nothing wrong about the NI mode supplementling they all look good but something make me concern is their equipment. In my mind a start, the NIs should have only 5 Mosins and 1 PPS-43, because NIs are not marines, they are just sailors who fight as gruond troops and so that their equipment and experient should be as equal to strelkies and their call in price should be reduce to 300-320. Then to the uprade, in the Armory you should change the Petrobomb upgrade to Individual weaponry supplement (of course cost higher than the Pbomb the price should be 75 ammu and 25 fuel)which allow the petrobombs to Cons, strek, NI, F-1 grenade and smoke grenade for the Guards and open up abilities like conscript ( 0 vet) will shoot faster, Streks will be able to upgrade to PPSh(reduce to 40 ammu) and PPS-43(45 ammu) for NIs. Secondly, you should add the Support weaponry(75 ammu) that will unlock the DPs(50 ammu) for the strek and 2 DPs, 4 SVT-40(75 ammu and rename the heavy weapon pack to support weapon pack) for the NIs and finally Tank busting in the armory will allow 2 PTRDs in tank hunter squad and RPD-33 AT grenade for NIs, guards and remove the 1 PRTD of the NIs.

This is all very complicated...

NI have already been adjusted for the next patch.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

IMO their armor type should be the main concern. No other fraction gets elite infantry at 2 CPs. Airborne are harder to hit while running but they suck at holding ground (they suck at allmost anything) and their RR upgade is expensive. Their elite armor should be gained from vet.

Yes, i think the Naval infantries should be set like the Strek in skills and so that their price should be reduce as well.

That won't work. Naval Infantry is a special force and hardened as hell, they need to be good, Strelky are (more men but less hp per man) as good as American riflemen and you want something like Riflemen as doctrinal call-in?
Their role is fine now, they just need minor adjustments.

Ok so the NI is an elite force so in the next patch their CP will be pushed up to 3 CP and plz remove the PTRD, it cant against infantries or tanks even light armor... its so insuffecient. I think the NI shouldn't start with SVTs, the one who should start with them are the Guards.

We will see what is in store for the NI in the next patch. Mr.Q is correct about the PTRD's utility. If the next patch is unsatisfactory consideration should be given to providing NI with airborne armor and Krak AT grenades at start.

IIRC Airborne and Stormtroops are both available at 2CP. I would like to see all Elites come in after 3CP.

Yep, +1. As you said Storms and Airbornes arrive at 2CP, elite units 3 and paper armour units like Luftwaffe ground forces at 1CP.

Paper armor XD? Exactly what type of armor do luftwaffe ground force have? Maybe the NI should have a PPSH. I would imagne that what you would bring on a boat since its small + compact.

I don't know about their armour type but hey have just 55 hitpoints while the German Leutnant has e.g. 140.

Wehrmacht engineers have 70 hitpoints but that's enough OT.

I guess that makes LGF the weakest unit in the game health wise :(. Its probably best to leave them in your Inf. HT so they can fire but be protected.
