3rd Canadian Division The North Shore (New Brunswick) Regiment they landed on Juno Beach on D-Day and fought all the way to the Second Battle of Arnhem they should be a premium sniper squad armed with the Pattern 1914 Enfield sniper rifle and equipped with High-power Browning.

Not as snipers but yes I’d like them to be present in Normandy and in Italy if at all possible.
this is awesome idea yes please
why the only other one would be assault troops with MP-40s or have them equipped with M50 Reising which already have their own premium squad
Thats what i hope, Premium Snipersssz

Would be cool but Id prefer them as normal squads and not locked behind a paywall. The British and Canadians should just be part of the tech tree squads but instead we get the weapons minus the soldiers

How about free Commonwealth forces? Not like half of the early-game gear is English anyway.

Why assaulter as the only other option?
Canadians were line Infantry, a good 9 person squad which is lacking in Normandy right now would fill that gap in nicely.
Again , just my opinion
Id be curious how well a bolt action squad would sell in Normandy. It just seems very fast paced and bolt actions are quickly left behind by most. I assume you mean a 9 man bolt action squad because of them being Canadian
Hard to say to be honest. There are good maps for BA play still.
Probably be the SMLE and Lee Enfield as the best options.
Would give then a chance to put in a 9 man premium with specialists and good perks.
Add a Bren Gunner and PIAT and you have a perfect squad to take to the beaches.
Pipe dreams, but still.
Canadians were ever present in WW2.

See if it was a more normal squad with 1 sten, 1 Bren, a piat, an engineer and everyone carrying Enfield No4s id buy it. 1 MG, 1 Assault, 1 Engineer, 1 AT and 5 riflemen. Bam

As someone who live in Canada I can’t wait for it!
they need a unique weapons as it seems to be a thing with every premium squad you got the M41 Johnson rifle and M50 Reising and Carcano Moschetto 91
Not really. One squad has the G41 in Normandy and another has the 1918 Beretta. I think a unique squad would be enough

true though the only other option would be the SMLE then

Okay, I will bite just this once.
This game already plays very loosely with historical accuracy so let’s add in something very Canadian and actually an arguably better weapon than the Lewis Gun (only stopped because the war ended in WW1).
Huot automatic rifle.
I rather not have machine gun team premium maybe the Turner SMLE would be good
Why not both then?
Both are prototype and very unique. Give some Canadian Flavor to the game.
And for real fun sake put the Ram II in play with its 6pdr in Tunisia.
Yep but they want the non American Allies in Normandy to be Premium as they made the Sherman Firefly and Churchill
