I agree, since AA was basically the best anti-infantry unit, I think the MG nest should be given to Engineer I, but then what would engineer II get? Maybe the ability to put cooler fortifications like little pillboxes or something

Unfortunately switching the AA gun from Eng I to Eng II is impossible because you have to be able to shoot down planes

no.

i rather not see them nerfed more than those were just because everyone will start using them at lvl 1 for then people complaining about those instead and nerf them too.

I would give enginier level 2 some kind of artilhary. maybe a hotzier. since staying in a fire base crewing your AAA is very boring, not metion how you can make a diference in a infantry squad in frontline instead in the fire base.

I don’t even know how to nerf them more.
Decrease the damage to be on pair with SMGs?

decrease the already decreased rate of fire, and increase the already questionable dispersion :wink:

there’s no limit for nerfs my friend.

oh yeah, increasing the heat speed of the weapon. ( which… was previously increased exponentially ).

So basically make it fire one bullet in a 360 arc before overheat? I guess even DF is not crazy enough. Although I may underestimate their capabilities.

do i have to remind you of the current overheat system?

lmg & SA rifles dispersions?

( luckely not anymore ) “castrated” rate of fire of Semi Auto rifles?

etc, the list is kinda long.

we can reach new low levels within each update.
do not forget that.

( can always be wrong, and always love to be proven so. although… it’s kinda rare )

I think this’ll be a bit too OP.
Instead I’d give them a few upgrades to the existing one for instance,
in Berlin, the lvl 1 engineer gets the 20mm kwk for AA and 75cm PAK for AT.

then, the lvl2 engineer should get an upgraded version of both things maybe the famous 88mm FLaK for AA and 88mm PAK for AT

The same goes for MG nests for instance, the lvl 1 gets MG34 and the lvl 2 gets the MG42.

to be sure, i would make Stationary guns to have the same system that tanks got, you got a Engenier squad and you unlock new AT guns, AAA, HMG. and have diferent guns for diferent theaters. 88 Flank canno would be OP in moscow, but agaist a well armored IS2, i would be OP.

got it?

I base my suggestions on Moscow campaign:
Level 1 engineer gets:
AT gun - PaK36 (the 37 mm gun, pretty much the same as on Pz3 B & E). Another alternative are captured French AT guns…
AA gun - single barrel 20 mm flak gun. (Maybe some folks know of French/Polish-made AA guns, as captured variants?)
MG nest - either MG34, or some 1st world war-era machinegun
Level 2 engineer:
AT gun - PaK 38, 50 mm, the one we have now.
AA gun - vierling 20 mm - the one we have now, OR 37 mm, single barrel flak gun.
MG nest - one we have now, or MG42.
