At best it was in Alpha. But need to ask Erika or Shi for clarification.
the wiki said “This was a squad type in the Closed Beta tests for the Battle of Berlin in May 2020. It was a redundant Assaulter squad and was removed as a result.” so there we go
They are just assaulter with a fancy name

I think there gimick was small squad size but could equip elite weapons like the STG.
So there are redundant at the moment.
But that was a Alpha iirc because the CBT was in Winter 2020 and the a actual Berlin CBT in 2021.
idk man the wiki is super outdated (and wrong in most case)
it probably abandons tbh
That’s very disappointing, I thought it would’ve been cooler.
If they said the class name without any explanation what would it do, I wouldn’t take this seriously at all. Apparently they have no clue what they are talking about and just like how the name sounds cool.
Guards were assaulter soldiers that unlocked and could use stg and fedorovs on alpha test Berlin.
(this one: Open pre-alpha test in Berlin - News - Enlisted)
They were just called guards. But were assaulter for most part.

This post is from 2021, enlisted was almost a different game back then. It’s weird to read this knowing what happened.
Just an observation.
afaik alpha test berlin was done in 2020.
such a shame that the vanguard class was ditched.
would have been cool to reduce assault rifles presence instead of… some of them ending up being nerfed to the ground.
by no means, stgs are not inherently bad, but they used to be better.
perhaps it wouldn’t have made a difference, since people will always go for meta.
but it might have been a different meta.
at the same time, similar to shotgunners, they wasn’t really a need to be separated.

I do not see issues with ARs but more with stupid SFs.
Could have solved the issue of SF spam and maybe spread them more among BRs as a result.

Unironically, it sounds very interesting. I’m guessing it consists of Soviet Guard units and Luftwaffe Paratroopers units, but what units would be used for the Americans and Japanese?
Probably also Paratroopers, Marines or Rangers for US. For British, I do not know beyond paratroopers (again) or SAS or Royal Marines.
Regarding Japan, after quick googlle, I found Teishin Shudan/ army paratroopers.

Having Army Rangers and the Royal Marines as units for the Guardsmen class is perfect.
They could also do SNLFs for Japan as well.
The guardsman class was the nowadays assaulter class and came with the perk “+7,5% more HP” I think.

Yes. this was among many other cut classes from very very early on, guardsman, shotguner And plenty of other ones were cut.
