Low-tier weapons/tanks/planes you still use besides bolt action

For my germans I always give them Walther P38s or Lugers as opposed to the C96 because Lugers are the OG gangsta gun and the P38 is one of my favorite pistols ever, I also love giving my guys shovels not to dig but for the meme of beating some sap to death with a shovel

Mauser C96 - 1896
P08 Luger - 1908
Walther P38 - 1938

The real OG is the C93 Borchardt in 1893

Gotta love the box :joy:

Well Japanese ones are new it’s true… But the others can be found in Normandy and Tunisia already. I do have 2 or three Japanese semis, but I really like the Ari 38 rifle :stuck_out_tongue:

Edit:
I completly forgot because it started as a joke… But in Moscow I ditched my Stuka for…

… The event Fw 189. Just because it’s fun and because nimble biplanes are powerless against it (it got 2 defensive mgs, poor biplane can’t get near.)

Not a good tank buster AT ALL tho :laughing:

fair, i mostly use the type hei and m1c though i do have a jap squad with 1 type hei as squad lead, the type 11 and everyone with 99s

Bf-110 in Normandy. I think it’s one of the most fun and versatile multirole planes around.

Mp38/40.

The japanese starter at rifle. It’s the best semi auto rifle in the campaign.

Ah a fellow PPT-27 enjoyer

MP-40s, they are “good enough” for use on minor roles(pilots, tankers, medics) and cheap to both buy and upgrade

T-34-85(Berlin) - Level 12 tank even had a gold order version where it can still fight Tigers and King Tigers despite it cannot take a good 88mm shot.

M1891/30 Sniper- I prefer this sniper rifle over the SVT and AVS

M38 and M44 Mosin Carbines - secondary weapon for my radiomen where a bolt action do better than AVT or AVS in long range

IL-2 1941(Moscow) - I don’t fly much but the rockets and bombs are relevant even with the Pe-2’s FAB-100s

SVT-40(Stalingrad) - for those who are not engineers

DP-27(Moscow, Stalingrad) - Allows the machine gunner to run faster than with the DT-29

T-34 1940(Stalingrad) - a reserve tank I have with the main being the gold order STZ

Kar98k(Normandy, Tunisia) - Radiomen in Normandy and most rifles in Tunisia except engy squad with Gewehr 41s and those who are using Gewehr 98 wartime mods

MP40(Tunisia) - The only German campaign that don’t have Mkbs or STGs

Type 99 Late - Way better than the Japanese semi autos and I do use the long version event squad too

MP-28. I don’t know why but its more accurate than the mp40, it doesn’t have that crazy spray when firing at a medium range
