StuG 3A buff - Replace the 80mm penetration HEAT with the new 115mm HEAT from the panzer 3, or replace the APCBC shells with HE

I dont think the later war shell is needed tbh, the B model still can get the job done, and I think its a nice trade for what is otherwise an extremely powerful anti infantry tank.

But the E and the F1, or at least the F1 need the B model shell.

My solution would be to add a new BR between BR1 and BR2, lets call it BR1.5 for simplicity now.

BR"1.5"
Would have Panzer III J, T-70, M5 stuart moved up from BR1 and Pz III J1, T-50, Crusader moved down from BR2.

This way 75mm+ cannon tanks could no longer bully BR1 and BR1.5 would have tanks necessary to easily deal with them.

(No japanese tanks were included for now, I would need more data to comment on those).

Conviniently I would also move all bolt-action rifles to BR1.5 from BR2 and slower firing SMGs (standard fire rate less than 600) such as M3A1 grease gun, M1 Beretta, Mp38 ect.
Also the stronger SMGs from BR1 to BR1.5 like the Beretta 38A (20) and Sten mk.II

I dont believe this statement - just like people who claim there aren’t BR4 matches.

I often get matched with BR3 players when playing BR4, when you pick BR1 you get not only no chance at fighting BR3 which already gives reason to play as BR1 - but you often have more BR1 players aswell.

I have had pure BR1 matches before - they exist, even when rare.

But open top and terrible turret rotation speed.

I mean that just brings us to the classic WT issue of decompression, it will absolutely work, teh easy way to do it is add a BR6 and move all of BR5 to the new BR6.

Your experience is much different from mine, while for me 80% of BR4 matches are uptiers. So yes BR4 doesn’t exist for me

Pure BR1 matches are even rarer than pure BR4 or downtiers.

Doesn’t matter to me as it’s a much more agile tank that you can spam constantly. It’s not hard to move your hull to aim quicker.

Another coward. Reported my post and removed by staff. You hate discussion. I’m done with you both. It’s good to know that Arhaon65 is your alt acc.

BR1 is fun, Ive been playing BR1 allies recently to grind out some of the early squads I skipped over when first playing the game.

I will say though, the Ithica at BR1 is pure nasty, dare I say borderline OP, its only limited by the constant reloading. certainly would work in Valkay’s BR1.5 concept.

BR1 vs BR2 is fine most of the time, the only time they get painful for me now is when soviets PPS spam and cycle assault squads. I think the easy way to fix this is just make it that you cant take the same squad type twice in a row.

Well okay that’s true I guess - however I would argue that Panzer III J is also crazy strong for a BR1 vehicle ( can reliably take on T28E, has the same armor as all German tanks up to BR3 and is quite agile) by your own logic it should be a BR2 vehicle since it isn’t much weaker than Panzer III J1 - however its turret rotation is a noticable disadvantage, it can be really difficult turning your MG fire quick enough to catch up with infantry up close.

Also M8 has no coax MG - only top mounted.

I actually prefer M3 over Scott because of equal HE vs infantry and a more functional MG.

This is the dumbest suggestion. This means you have to use a squad that you don’t like once, and it may bring more p2w.

I mean only if you only like 1 single squad type in the game? Not to mention if anything its anti P2W since it massively discourages the likes of those who run a deck of 3 vehicle squads or 3 assaulter squads, something F2P have no chance or either doing nor competing with on an equal playing field.

Your suggestion will only force people to play with weapons they don’t like.

Just equip your other squads well too? I mean thats what any F2P player has to do as well?

Again though, unless you only like a single squad class in the entire game, this is really a non issue.

Just because you’re willing to do this doesn’t mean others are like you, it’s that simple.
Being good on a tank or plane is already valuable enough, why do you continue to demand meaningless restrictions for infantry players.

I mean thats the standard way of playing the game? Do you just not equip your other squads or something?

Why am I forced to use another squad after using the same one?
Your suggestion is more like: You have already used 2 infantry units, it’s time to use tanks or planes.

I dont know if I am misunderstanding you here or vice versa but,

Do you think my suggestion is that you have to play the same types of squads over and over?

Or is it that you think you need to play 2 infantry squads then a tank squad and presumably vice versa?

My suggestion is more, If you play a tank squad, go pick an infantry squad and let other people have tank slots? Or if your just cycling assaulter squads, take a chill pill, help out the team maybe with an engineer squad?

I mean if I really wanted to see any variant of it added, it would be limited to vehicle squads, tank and plane.

Preventing players from using the same squad itself is an unnecessary restriction.Besides, your suggestion is more likely to affect infantry players.
