The MP 18 is currently in BR 2, while being almost identical statswise to the MP 34(o) in BR 1.
When compared to the MP 34(o), the MP18 has
The same magazine size
The same damage
The same bullet velocity
The same rate of fire
Slower Reload
Worse Recoil
Worse Dispersion
Slightly Better ADS speed
BR 1 Germany doesn’t have any premium assault squads, this squad should fill that gap.

I never noticed that that has a BR I price point. Huh… Usually a lot of those are under 1000- 1,500 gold for BR I.
If it has identical stats I don’t see an issue, given the BR1 price point it’d be a good entry into the German TT.

Move The MP 18 to BR 1
Reasoning:
I think this one is quite obvious. Everyone who used this weapon knows how utterly bad it performs.
Compared to the other BR I weapons for GER it’s also worse in almost every category:
Significantly slower reload speed
Highest recoil of all Axis SMG:s. On par with Reising and MP 28 (7.65mm).

Furthermore:
The squad itself is nothing extraordinary. 4 Assualters + one normal engineer.
It’s also a cousin to premium squads such as M3 Fiel…

Mp 18 is honestly the worst smg in the game by far. It should deserve its own br due to how bad it is. I hope it gets buffed

Seeing that I own that MP 18 squad and never consider using it as I consider it is by far worse then any of the level one smg’s of any faction . Thus, I would have no problem with this gun being dropped to level one. IMOP the level one MP28, Beretta M38 and MP34 are all better, so the MP18 should be a level one smg. To be honest, there isn’t another level one SMG from any faction that I would NOT CHOOSE before I used the MP18.
So yes, the MP18 squad is a waste as a premium level two squad, where it would be at least salvageable at level one.
Agreed, weaker than the Tier 1 Beretta M38a and no one will suffer from moving the MP18 to BR1.
Likewise, the Gerat 03 should be moved to BR4.
