Pilots should be allowed to use the M30 Drilling

pilots can already take the kiraly and PPSH with drums so whatever

Danke Danke.
I been here since Normandy, just never much of a forum visitor.

  • Pilots should be able to use the Luftwaffe M30 Drilling, as was historicly intended.

  • All troops should be able to use M1/M2 Carbines, as was historicly intended (issued to and designed for, amongts many others, vehicle crews and truck/APC drivers, unsure about pilots but the more the merier).

  • Guerrillas should be able to use the VG 1-5, as was historicly intended (TT guerrilla squad is Volkssturm after all).

Others have fought the hard battle previously for M30 being useable on pilots, I have chosen the carbines debate as my battlefield, I hope both will get implemented at some point: Introduce a "Carbine" Weapon Class

Yay! Tysm!

I mean as a Rifle class weapon many classes can already use the M1.

Honestly I’m starting to think we should just give the Tank/ Pilot class access to the Rifle family. It may seem odd but some crews did carry infantry rifles

The M2 though should be moved to the Assault family

The correct statement is that Guerillas should be able to use semi-auto rifles as that’s what that is

And? Are you stating that tankers, drivers and pilots can in fact use them? No? Then what worth is this statement? I already know this, that’s why I’m asking for it. I’m clearly aknowledging that the things that already exist does in fact already exist by the virtue of asking more.

I don’t mean this directly at you, but whenever I state something should be expanded upon, like “we need more British squads/weapons/vehicles”, there’s always one guy throwing himself headlong to say “but already are some of these in the game in some capacity”, like its some sort of counter. Am I missing something? It’s utterly meaningless, unless you’re telling me to shut up and accept what we’ve already got? What is the reasoning for putting down a brother in this way?

Maybe, I think it would be more interesting letting the US carbine family have this unique feature would be overall more interesting, not to mention the most historicly grounded way forward as it was its intentional role.

The M2 is not a Assault Rifle, and I’ll keep repeating this til my dying breath. In WW2 terms (and older) it is a Carbine weapon (a weapon smaller than a regular rifle firing a pistol to intermediate rounds), post-war it’s a “Personal Defense Weapon (PDW)”, it’s something soldiers had that was more effective than a pistol but less bulky than a full-sized rifle.

Both in real life and in game people have critiqued the carbine family for being “too weak” and not a effective replacement for the service rifle, despite the fact it was never intended to do that. People forcing this weapon into roles it was never meant for will always be disapointed at its capabilities, the only “buff” the M1 and M2 needs is more situations where it can be used, for example yes Assaulters, but also vehicle crews, drivers, medics and pilots. People will shut up about how “weak” it is when you can give it to tankers.

The correct statement is that every class in the game can (could*, considering the new information given above) use the VG 1-5 except the Guerrillas, a unique feature of this weapon compared to all others, and again something I think should be given to the US carbines too. It’s also listed in game as a “Volkssturm Rifle”, the only weapon I’m aware that does so, rather than a “Semi-Auto Rifle”.
