Ive been looking at a few premiums for germany and ive decieded on 4 potential squads,so here they are

1.StuG 3 A- a BR 2 casemate TD with HEAT shells,and seems to be on par with the normal short 75 on the panzer 3 N from stalingrad. I’m not as sure about this one because I’m pretty sure I’m just paying the equivalent of $35 for a worse panzer 3N

2.Bf 110 C-6 (30mm mk 101 cannon)-its a 30mm at BR2,which is great,but its armament when you run out is a measly 4 7.92 MGs and no bombs,so ammo conservation is a must.but I would really like to get this one,but its roughly the same price as the StuG 3 A

3.BF 109 G-14 (underwing MK 108)-a BR 5 BF 109 G series that is better than the K4 in armament and 1 second better turn time but slower.it has 2 30mm cannons instead of 1,2 MG 131s,and an additional MG 151.i am just not sure about this one either because it is 5000 gold and is slower than the K4 while having just a slightly better armament.

4.MG 42 early-a BR4 uniqe MG 42 variant that can do a lot of damage like its tech tree counterpart,but had a few differences,4.5 second reload instead of a 6.6 second reload,a higher damage of 13.2 instead of 12.0,and a lower recoil of (what the statcard shows) 11 vertical and 14 horizontal,compared to the tech trees 15 vertical and 16 horizontal,which makes it a lot more controlable,and thats still while having a 160 RPM increase from the normal one for a total of 1060 RPM.and there are 5 soldiers in total,2 engineers and 3 machine gunners with 40% vertical recoil reduction and 35% extra vitality,but the one huge downside is that ammo pouches are absolutly necessity because you only have one spare magazine.I would say I am looking at this squad the most because it is only $40 and not $50 like the BF 109 with underwing cannons,and seems a lot more useful.

So these are just the squads that I am looking at,but if there are some squads I should definitly get before some of these gimmicks then let me know.the squads I already own are the:MP18,flamepanzer 2,suomi kp31,kreighoff FG,WZ 28,TZ 45,STG 45m,panzerwhefer,G41 squad,and the MG 30 (I spend too much money on this game help)

Premium squads don’t have much of A use except for the odd few but overall I would say you should buy extra slots because they’re the most valuable things in this game.

Problem with those premiums is they require a specific taste and style.

Img 42 early is the most effective “general” choice there.

I have the bf110 c-6, stug and g10 (same as g14) and i love them, but they are specialist squads.

They require a taste for certain styles. Certainly not for everyone

I was looking at the stat card for the tech tree,enlisted stats go brr

Mg42 early. One of the best. 3 gunner and 2 engineers. All 5 men come with the lmg.

Second choice g14. Because it’s a beautiful plane, and I like those. Possibly the best fighter axis can get. Other best was g10, not available anymore.

BF109 with the 30mm cannons is the best fighter for Germany. Low ammo count but if you tap fire the 30mm, they shred. Only con is low perk points and low ammo.

MG42 early is also nice but low ammo even with ammunition pouches. Seems to be lacking ammo compared to the tech tree MG42. Good perk points though.

Ooh really? might have to get me, that squad :smile:

I have the ME109 G-10 premium with the same armament as the G-14 you’re looking at, and I can tell you it’s really good. You will gain air superiority with it and shreds those pseky P47s with ease.

The tactic with it is to sneak up behind a plane and get really close, then unleash the 30mm tl demolish them. It’s also decent at strafing when no hostile planes are present. Just lacks bombs.

I’d say it’s worth it if you want air dominance.

A better tactic:

Be a bird of prey. Stay high. Find the rocket spam. DIVE. Watch the fireball crashing down.

Mg 42 early squad gets also insane drip

There’s one very annoying thing about Stug A, pretty low ammo capacity for it’s high fire rate.
I don’t even understand why it has AP option,I would gladly swap them for more Heats. They’re obsolete in basically every way. At least I wouldn’t have to hi back to refill point so often.

You may want to wait for the next sales, in May.
