Planned changes to the paratroopers' supply boxes

@MajorMcDonalds

seems good but i dislike the type 100 mg on japan due to its terrible accuracy, i’d prefer either the TE-4 or the tokyo arsenal smg for the BR5 para assault kit

OR they finally give us KE 7 with 50 round mag its the best high BR LMG Japan can get.

Give “ALL” the paratrooper squads through “ALL” the factions “INTERCHANGEABLE” weapons, like for some odd reason was “ONLY” given to the soviets. :thinking:

Nah, will be a GO.

Good point. Currently there are only two options; a set of 2 flame guys at low BR, or all 6 at high BR. Should add an intermediate of 4 flame guys in there somewhere. Their particular flamethrower is pretty weak compared to normal ones, wouldn’t be too strong

You might notice that developers are trialing a pattern for the “assault” set of either…

  1. assault weapon - MG - assault weapon - MG
    OR
  2. MG - assault weapon - MG - assault weapon

… for different factions to spice it up in terms of heavy weaponry. Opinions are welcome on this idea, of course it does create situations where, if you really compared them, certain nations would have the “better” paratrooper kit for a certain BR and maybe a bit worse for other BRs, which can be beneficial and interesting.

Also, Italy/Britain don’t have enough yet to make all of their equipment Italian or British - so for now at least until then, these are the proposals.

Well you know what, Im glad we are being asked first for sure.

Honestly seems mostly fine for me, I think the only think Im iffy about is the Panzershreks for BR3+ for the Western Allies squads, I would personally rather they be M9’s, if only for the fact that paratroopers should be landing with lighter equipment. Not to mention while flanking, M9’s are more than enough to take down any enemy tank.

Okay, I want to add a digression. I have recently heard some rumors that the Soviet Union’s battle with Japan has been abandoned. I want to know if this is true?

Very cool as they are universal now. It was too messy with each of them having different boxes.

RIP BR1 Italian paratroopers i guess, they had MG34 at BR2 and it was their only saving grace.

At least BR5 German paras will get better with their STG44.

I’m glad that American high BR paras will finally get their good rocket launchers it was so annoying spawning and getting M9 when you have KT in front of you.

And great that BR5 Soviet paras going to get RD-44 as DP-27 was too weak at that BR.

How did you solve the issue of German paratroopers getting second FG from box (=>shared ammo reserve with primary FG)?

How does this even work?

Italy has only 1 paratrooper squad - the OG on BR2.

Am I supposed to bring them to BR5 and they get STGs?

I wouldn’t advise in general listening to rumors. :wink:

If anything comes from us ourselves, then it’s trustworthy. There’s a reason we tend to say “soon™” and use careful words, until we can say something. :slight_smile:

British high BR paras seem to be stronger now than American paras as M1919A6 is nowhere near competitive when compared to Hyde or MG42 100. After last buff to Vickers that gun is just amazing and i would rather spawn them than Tommy 100 especially since it’s Vickers + Hyde vs Tommy 100 + M1919A6.

Well justice … finally justice not only they have to pay for their squad but ours is better ahahah cant be more capitalist then this xD

i mean ideally i’d like to just be able to put my own equipment setups in the paratrooper box but i know that would take time to development

Its fine, just please change ZB-26 for MG13. other than that cool changes

Italian paras:
Why ZB-26 and not Breda MG?

American paras:
Why Lee Enfield sniper and not M1903 sniper?


Besides, can we remove prototypes from para boxes?

I don’t use Hyde 1944 or RD in normal matches, I don’t want to get them in boxes either.

I would even prefer Tommy 50 and DPM instead.
