It’s quite unfortunate that Japan doesn’t have a Sniper 3. It’s not the only nation that is missing a squad, for example Americans are missing Attacker 3, and Japan and USSR are missing rider squads, but I have a simple solution to fix this Sniper 3 problem.
Add the type 97 LMG.
Yes it is already in the game, but Allow me to elaborate.
The Type 97 LMG is basically the FG 42 II Sniper that Germans have with some minor tweaks. And it comes with a scope which is another plus.
However, it’s clear that some people will choose to complain about having 2 of the same gun/model. So I suggest adding a Type 97 LMG with a barrel shroud.
It’s certainly odd that the Fg 42 II with scope is considered a sniper weapon and the Type 97 with scope a machine gun, but honestly I’d like to keep it that way. Back to the “sniper 3” for Japan, the Type Hei rifle has a scope mount on the left side (I’m pretty sure it’s for the Type 97), and this mount remains on all versions, including the automatic version.
To summarize, the Type Hei automatic version of the Type 97 with telescopic sight can be a good weapon in the pumping branch with the “3 snipers” squad, as a counterpart to the Fg 42 II with telescopic sight.
Because the FG42 is battle rifle.
The type 97 LMG is a machine gun.
Look at the facts, FG42 has bayonet, early version could attach grenade launcher and had small 20 round magazines while Germany MGs usually used 50, 100 or 250 round belts and had no bayonet or grenade launcher attachments.
it is
excesive scope for something so range limited.
i prefer a kar98k
the gewehr43 scoped should be buff as all the semiautos
except the M1carbine
the carbine only needs more rpm.
