Since there are a pair of these of d-day map it would be a nice addition to make them working for the players and making the first objective part more realistic, with artillery pounding the beach and not just mg nests. (of course there wouldn’t be a single man for turret, at least a gunner and a loader like on the pak)
Also adding 5 cm guns like this would be neat:
It would also be not unbalanced since attackers now have smoke artillery in order to advance in cover.
EDIT: I realised that the first guns are for anti-naval duty so I pretty much messed about them still would be nice some kind of indirect artillery or other fixed positions like the 5 cms guns
You mean on artillery squad that is almost not used at all as far as I can see in the game?
You mean the smoke artillery that literally no one (except me in Tunisia… rarely) even uses, and when it is used, not a single monkey at least tries to utilize it?
Yeah, what a perfect counter balancing things out huh.
That might be somewhat true, but what I´m saying is… that reasoning behind this idea is rather fishy.
And, since allied population is also dwindling in Normandy, giving axis one more toy to pound yankees on the beach even harder is not going to do much good at the moment anyway.
Also, Let the Allies call the destroyer shelling support, and each player can call individually to blast the Panthers and FG42 German Superman on the beach.
