Ranks on soldier uniform, depending on stars
For example:
- Private
- Corporal
- Sergeant
- Lieutenant
- Captain
Medals and Badges for different reasons that you can give your soldier:
For example:
If you kill 30 enemies with a single soldier you can get German Iron Cross II class and “equip” your soldier with it and you would see ribbon on his second button hole on uniform.
Or if you spend 3 hours playing tank you can get Excellent tanker badge like Soviet one.
Yes that would be really great.
I really like your suggestion!
I like this idea generally. I think Private, Corporal and then the various Sergeant ranks work better. So PVT, CPL, SGT, SSGT, TSGT
Each Class up from lvl 1 starts a “rank” higher too maybe? So Rifleman 2 maxes out as FSGT, Rifleman 3 maxes at MSGT. Then Rifleman 4 gets to Lieutenant? I feel like that’s a good way to denote some of it. Also add placer to the different Star ratings.
I don’t really want entire squads of captains and lieutenants.
I like the idea of having squad leaders (Officers or NCOs) but I really don’t want whole squads of Captains and every soldiers decked out in every medal imagineable.
Most people try to optimise and would use the best (as in highest level) soldiers availiable and a game with 80~90% officers would just kill any historical immersion for me.
We could limit the number of officer and the number of medal per squad.
Two medals per squad and one officer
Yes me too it was only a example to start a discussion.
One officer is good byt why medal limit per squad not per person?
Because they were very rare. For example 2. SS Panzer Division “Das Reich” had 69 soldiers with the Knight Iron Cross, over Thousands of Soldiers. Those guys were veterans who was known for their bravery in combat and their brutality in general.
