Just to clarify, M1A1 Thompson has the stats of:

  • 6.8 damage (8.2 upgraded)
  • 600 rpm (690 rpm upgraded)
  • 86 dispersion
  • 265m/s velocity
  • 40 vertical recoil
  • 15 horizontal recoil

Uh, hell no. I would much rather a blend of Sten Mk II, Lanchester, and Owen stats:

Sten Mk V stats (proposed):

  • 5.7 damage (6.8 upgraded like lanchester)
  • 700 rpm (805 upgraded like Owen)
  • 32 vertical (with 70% control ike Sten Mk II)
  • 19 horizontal (with 70% control like Sten Mk II)
  • 400m/s velocity like Owen/Lanchester
  • 84 dispersion like Lanchester

I’d prefer it as a Paratrooper squad since it was primarily used by them

But a compromise could be…….RESEARCH TREE PARATROOPERS

Add the Sten Mk V to the RT AND RT Paratroopers alongside it!! Boom!

The dev’s would have to up the damage for me to use the Sten at level two or three over the Thompson.

I was just making it based off pre-existing 9mm damage values for the British weapons. Considering the MP35/I is 9mm as well (although I’m not sure if it’s 9mm Mauser or 9mm Parabellum), I could buff the damage to be in line with the MP35/I.

I just checked and the MP35/I just says 9mm (without clarification), so we could essentially buff the Sten MK V damage to 6.0 base (7.2 upgraded). Perhaps that would be better?

That’s too good of an idea, Gaijin won’t add it.

Actually, it’s so good of an idea Gaijin will add it.

All I want to do is replace my Sten mk2s with the MK5s in my british squads… but instead of getting actually good content (I’m going to predict the future here) we are just going to get another unneeded soviet buff and more unwanted slop for the soviet TT :sob::pray:

:rofl: It should be somewhat accurate to the real gun, but I was just saying that I personally wouldn’t use it vs the Thompson, especially since they have one at level two now. However, I love my Allied level two lineup, but I rarely play them because they are always the sacrificial lamb when I play with them. :joy: I can win with level three and level five Allies, but NOT level two.

Thank you for your post.

I support this idea!

Allies need more SMGs other than Thompsons and actually good ones.

Just found a leak by Gaijin, they are planning to add LAD to BR I as first unlock for SMGs.

We can dress our soldier as Para already, all we need is unlocked uniform selection for all squad.

As far as I know Sten Mk.V had a fire rate of 600 rpm

I only found a ROF of 600

Overall, I see the Sten Mk V becoming a straight upgrade to the Mk II in all other ways but RoF (some say it was 600, idk if that’s true I think it was the same as the Mk II, the Brits liked their ca 500ish RPM on their SMGs, the Patchett was deemed “excessive” with only 600), we just need to make sure that these upgrades make it worth its placement at Br II so it could serve as a alternative to the Lanchester.

A great British BR III alternative would be the Patchett; 600 RPM (some sources say more, but most agree on the 600 number), then I’d give it great recoil (very low horizontal, okay vertical, very little visual, average or better control), low dispersion and same 7.0 upgraded damage as the MP 40, and of course a bayonet. Essentially I’d turn it into a laserbeam of a weapon, fit for our “Imperial Stormtroopers”, hehehe.

And of course, BOTH PATCHETT MKB AND STEN MK V SHOULD BE IN THE TECH TREE.

Sten mk.V (and maybe Patchett as well) can accept 50 round Lanchester mags.

Great GO or event weapons in the future, because yes, all Stens, the Lanchester and the Patchett used interchangeable magazines, the 50 round Lanchester mags are theoretically compatible (just like how the 30 round M2 Carbine mags are theoretically compatible with the M1s).

50 Round Sten Mk II (BR II), 50 Round Sten Mk V (BR III), 50 Round Patchett (BR IV)…
