Western allies only?

-Moroccan riflemen are great and will be removed.
-Boomerang will be removed but it’s not very good.
-NZAC Snipers are good and will be removed.

For some others (not sure if they’ll get removed or not, you’ll have to check if it matters):
-Tempest is my favourite aircraft.
-Mosquito my 2nd favourite.
-US Premium para’s are absolutely insane.
-Tunisia Sten gun premium squad is pretty good considering it’s really cheap. Also allows you to add 1 of your own engineer.

The enfield p14 sniper is worse than springfield m1903a3 because slower reload and the squad is overpriced. Only reason to buy it would be the uniforms

I honestly wouldn’t recommend you buy any premiums at the moment because we don’t know what tier or maps they will play in. Given the backlash against the new system and many premiums being put in maps they shouldn’t or not usable in maps that they would normally.

I’d advise you wait and see how the games balancing fleshes out in the future. There will always be more sales but I doubt you will be able to refund something if you buy it.

I understand you DON’T play west allies much, so I assume, axis squads?

Get the mg45 squad in Berlin. For 2 reasons:
It’s good, and it’s getting removed from shop forever.

Or be a Chad sir and get the Lebel squad. It’s not very good… but it’s fashionable, cheap, gives bragging right when using and also is disappearing from shop.

Depend how much money do you have.

  • Flamethrower Squads of Tunisia that are going to disappear you can equip them with any eng/rifleman guns so you can make them even more op. It’s the most op squad in a game 100% worth it, 4x flamethrowers + 1x engineer.
  • Fedorov MG which behaves like usual Fedorov auto but with even better accuracy and great dmg per shot and also zero movement speed penality as with usual mgs.
  • Allies paratroopers with 100 mag Thompsons are just damn op with their gun and BAR or rocket launchers that you get from the box (they even have even more rockets than actual AT gunners = total power creep)
  • MG 42 Early which has the best accuracy of all Axis lmgs you can even murder some camping snipers at mid range
  • AS-44 it’s great but soon we should get new soviet paras and they may have similar weapon so maybe skip that one since it may get power creepeed.
  • Jumbo that has APCR which is deadly even for Panthers and Tigers while you retain great armor.
  • Calliope/M3 Medium are great against swarms of infantry but are very vulnerable against tanks, at guns, infantry, planes and even flamethrowers.
  • Jagdpanther is insanely good against t-34 spammers they won’t be able to pen you no matter what i have destroyed 4 of them in a row few matches back. However panzerfausts, demo packs, planes and is-2 gonna wreck you instantly so better keep your distance.
  • Colt Monitor that is all around good lmg and has less weight than usual BAR so you can sprint for longer and flank people much easier
  • Kiraly or Suomi KP if you need some SMG assaulter squad in your lineup.
  • Pz 38(t) F if you want some low tier tank with really good armor and mediocre gun
  • Re 2001 if you need fighter plane with capacity to destroy tanks and small groups of intantry (it has 250kg bomb)
  • PZ IV E if you really want that Heat to counter t-34 and KV-1 and don’t have PZ3N from Stalingrad then maybe? But it will struggle against anything with over 100mm of armor (T-34 STZ has additonal armor so forget about penning it’s hull focus on the turret)
    I’m not sure about Firefly and it’s post merge power against Tiger 2, in current meta it’s not really worth buying since any 76mm can destroy Tigers with only a bit of aiming required.

thanks,I think I’m going to get either the MG42 early or the Fedorov MG,mabey the lewis gun squad or MG13 drum squad

Every time i picked up Lewis from dead Soviet i liked it for it’s look but it feels just dreadful to shoot, sights are also bad they obscure too much of your screen. But still it’s still more accurate than most Soviet lmgs (Fedorov is still number 1), MG13 drum was op for a long time but since they added mg 42 it’s nothing special and post merge you could get drum lmgs for free like Mg34 Patronentrommel or mg15 both have less recoil than that premium pack. Only way it could get saved from obscurity is lower br in future so you could play against low br players.

If you could only pick one of the four you’ve listed then get the mg42. Two engineers, great gun, and cool uniform

The reload speed is still very special.

Oh yeah i forget about that it’s super quick if only recoil would be a bit lower.

I love all boltie riflemen squads. I’m glad they get removed, also the Marrocan one, so we hopefully get another one as replacement and I’ll get that one too!

Yes!

That’s the right attitude!

I got both in Berlin (red guards, Lebel)
Both in Tunisia
And I got some in Moscow but forgot if they’re bolties or some obscure semis…

I like 9 men riflemen squads. Just spawn them to flash my fancy uniforms, (or civilians clothes) :stuck_out_tongue:

Moscow is G41 and a Russian full auto.
Getting the G41 next discount because it’s going down in price…and then next discount hopefully half from that.

I got all premmy boltie rifleman squads though. Hope we’ll get a Western allies and Japan one because they both won’t have any post merge.Ger has the Italian squad and Russians the mosin squad. Obviously have blth already.

It depends, 9 men are semis. Old 4(5 with engineer) men are BAs.

Yeah the 4 engy huys are some of the few I’m not really interested in…

They’re GREAT for new players, thought, they can build everything.

By apart from that, they don’t give much.

I got both from Berlin, thought. Because they came with unique weapons.

Wait, are these squads engineers? That would meant they’re just 4. My bad.

Did you get the “flag rifles” Japanese event riflemen squad? One of my favourite. Rifles pack a punch.

Can charge mg fire with pride and fall for the honour of the Emperor.

Since i picked up all meta powerful and a bit meme squads like Calliope + Pzwf42 i could get something less of a meta should i pick one from this list:

  • Kiraly 39M / Suomi KP
  • Dickus Maximus
  • 2x Bolt squads (Volkssturm and Moroccans)
  • Gerat 03 (it probably sucks due excessive vertical recoil)

If there will be a real BR matchmaking i could use Volkssturm with my MP18 squad. I want Dicker the most but since it will get cheaper by default and next sale will be -50% as usual i see no reason to pick it now.
