Essentially a carbine version of the Lee-Enfield. It would have largely the same stats, but with quicker handling at the expense of damage and muzzle velocity. BR II.
Sure, it would he a great choice if they ever add Paratroopers to the Tech Tree.
But if we’re talking Premium/Event squad weapons I think the Patchett Mk.I (Early Sterling SMG) would be better. It was used in limited numbers by both Paratroopers and Commandos during WW2, so it could work for Para or Guerrilla units.
I am craving more Commonwealth Stuff! All of those are MUST haves (excpet maybe the Hornet, lovely plane but I believe its post war?)
May I also suggest:
Turner 20 round (this one may not exist, the High capacity mag I mean…probably just a Battlefield creation, ) ALthough I dont see why It couldnt take Magazines from the Charlton Rifle. Potentially compatible
Better Gun Valentine (6 Pound or 75mm gun)
Perhaps Event AA
FireFly (in files with Bombs, Id like to see it rocket Loadout)
Operational in the RAF in 1946, although its first flight was in 1944. Its as legitimate as some other vehicles in the game, although I can understand being hesitant.
Yep, that’s what this is. Prototypes of the Sterling were called the Patchett Mk.1 back then. One of the more notable differences was the use of STEN magazines (the distinctive curved Sterling mags weren’t invented until after the war).
I too question the arguments against.
“It will split the playerbase”
We already had this basically pre merge and the game wasnt ruined.
Most battles USA-UK/Commonwealth and Germany-Italy will queue together anyway
Having some US or UK/Commonwealth or Germany or Italy specific maps wouldnt affect the playerbase split much at all. Indeed it would likely attract new players with the ability to for example specifically play as the British at Dunkirk, Australians at Balikpapan or Canadians at Juno Beach
Even if we didnt get faction specific maps, even just having separate trees would help so we dont have this huge crammed full tree, especially for Allies.
Like seriously, why should every single Allied nation other than USSR be crammed into the one tree??
Then weve got the situation of like the new Ithaca shotgun I mean its not bad but youre adding another shotgun (??) when we specifically want the lewis gun, jungle carbine and other content added to the USA-UK tech tree.
There were plenty of good reasons for the merge, all I meant was having UK and USA mostly queuing together but sometimes separately I dont think would be much of an issue.
