- Yes, add rocket artillery to all current/future radio squads that are premium or event
- No, do not give them rocket artillery
This is basically referring to the 35th Infantry Regiment “Pistoia” squad (legacy Italian radio operator premium) and 34th Signal Company (turner SMLE premium squad) and allowing them to call rocket artillery. This is in addition to any future premium/event radio operator squads.
Why? Rocket artillery is available to very few squads so expanding that pool of eligible squads, even slightly, would be ideal.
It could also be possible to allow paratrooper squads to use rocket artillery when they equip the sniper loadouts from the supply boxes. This is because the supply box grants them a radio operator. It could make underutilized paratrooper loadouts more appealing.
I only disagree because I feel Rocket Artillery should be freely available. It should be an upgrade for regular Radio squads, and I guess by extension special Radio squads. But it should be an upgrade ability first and foremost

If it was it would get nerfed…you can call it a lot quicker than regular artillery. It would be constant HE spam everywhere.
I disagree with your opinion because normal artillery was certainly more common in the war than rocket bombardments. Rocket artillery should be limited in some capacity so normal artillery is not completely phased out
I just don’t like an entire mechanic, feature, whatever being locked behind premiums or event. Imagine if APCs got the same treatment. Paratroopers are already locked behind premium and event. Or future mechanics and features
There are certainly ways Gun and Rocket Artillery could be tweaked so both have their pros and cons and don’t outshine the other
I’ve thought Rocket Artillery can have a larger area but it’s not accurate while Gun Artillery has a tighter bombardment
surely rocket arty should be in regular ussr squads as the sheer amount of katyusha’s that were produced?
nope, it should just be a premium
