Even fight: UK vs Italy

I hate 1:1 balance, having different nations play differently make the game more thoughtful and unique

Huh?
How do you think the Austrian Mannlichers made their way to Africa?

I appreciate you trying to find reasoning for Mannlicher, but let’s be real:

Soviets - Mosin, Germans - Kar98k, Japanese - Arisaka, Brits - Lee Enfield, Americans - M1903/Garand, Italians - Carcano

I remember, some guy was asking me to give the Germans more guns in one of my mods because “The Kar98k is boring and doesn’t compare to the Garand”

Give him kar 98k kriegsmodell and kar 98k prewar

These guns were captured in WWI and made their way to Africa far before WWII broke out and used during Italy’s colonial wars.

Sure, I don’t think many frontline troops used them against the British, but they had these guns.

And what would stop the Italians from sending send Carcanos before WWII broke out as well?

They had millions of those. Even decided they had enough stockpilke to start switching to the new cartridge Carcano.

Exactly, so while they had access to Mannlichers, I’m sure most Italians used the Carcano. Again, it’s just there in the game now to “balance” out the Lee Enfields.

Don’t think that was used in Normandy

That is the only Kar98 variant I used

Because they’re basically garrison troops, why waste the good shit on them?

You do know Italy sent more troops from homeland to Africa after WW2 broke out right?

The “garrison troops” who were stationed there were so second-tier that the Brits captured over 130,000 of them in 1940.

So overwlehming majority of Italian soldiers who fought in 1941-43 were sent from Italy proper and with Carcanos in hand.

I love the fact that I can upgrade my squads even though I’m actually playing a different loadout. And miss a list for this event like this one to know if it’s worth researching a few more squads…

They should also remove the heat mechanic for these types of machineguns, tanks autocannons also need the same.

Just laugh at me, we all know this isn’t going to get fixed.

I just don’t want my balance to be a fictional version of segregation, different but not equal
German everything is good but planes
The insane reload time of the g41 is on rare exception
Us has a few good weapons
Br4 smg, rifle, mg, sniper, all br3 weapons at br4
Has good planes most players can’t or won’t us

Jonson mg vs German 75 rounder goes to Germany
Kiraly is a better Thompson
Germany with a ten round sa sniper vs US 8 rounds and 2 second vs 3.3 secondcreload
Super Pershing as good as the worse tiger 2 weak hulk armor and a shield that at best covers half the front and sides and none of the rear

Yes that’s all get together and gate open ussr
That has a br4 rifle at br3

But it goes ussr
German
Us
Japan for tech tree weapons

Germany has worse smgs. If you don’t include Austrian, Hungarian Italian smgs that’s true
And those are only ,worse, then ussr not us

The t20 is fake but the fg42 paratrooper lmg is a great ,infantry rifle,

Yes if free players were not limited to four squads you could
,balance, the game without giving everyone everything

But giving Germany assault rifles, select fire rifles, big mag mgs, and telling us to pound sand is not balance

The mannlicher M95 can be understood as being captured by Italians from Austria Hungary during World War I, and also equipped by Italians. However, the PZB39 is really incomprehensible. Why not replace it with the WZ35 or S18, as well as Italian transport vehicles and mortars? I really doubt the production team’s disregard for the Italian faction, from the Battle of Tunis until now

I legit just played a match, got around 2500 points and said to myself: Okay, doable, just another good match or two.

Then I realized it’s not 5000 points anymore per level.
