Give an Option Not to Take Vehicle in Squad Line-up

I mean they are available but not likely to appear in organised action (specially for Normandy) any more, because of their low effectiveness in battle is not worth for the army to pay the cost of transportation and maintenance.

Vehicles are usually not used as long as infantry weapons. Due to high operating cost, they will not usually be continually used when they show a clear disadvantage, except when the army have no other thing to use. Different types of ammunition also give difficulty to logistics.

Panzer 2 can be a good weapon in normandy

it’s a auto canon whit HEPTi , high RoF , probably was a interesting gameplay of pz2 in normandy

That’s not how real world works, kid. You are being very naive here.

If you really decide to use them, of cause it is possible, and they might even be effective if you have specialised tactics. But my point is most late game players who only have the default vehicles are not likely to use them even they take them into the squad line-up, so why do not give them an option?

Iirc US low BR will only face Japan.

8

Not entirely true. That sentence can also mean US will meet Japan only if US is using early war weapons.

9

Which is usually low BR unless you play Soviets.

10

I mean the condition of US fighting Japan is using early war item doesn’t restrict it to fight Germany with early war item. US can only use early war item to fight Japan doesn’t mean they can’t use early war item to fight early war Germany.

I was thinking the same thing, with the new tech tree being a thing either

A. Go with OPs idea and make it so you don’t have to have a tank or

B. Give us basic default era tanks to use. Someone may want to play on Berlin with just mosins (historically accurate btw) but only has a T-60 to compete with, they should get access to the default tank for the map, which in this case is the T-34-85 DT. To balance it the tank can’t be upgraded, you cant upgraded crew and their gear.

If someone plays Mosins and T-60 and they get to Berlin, Germans will have Kar98k and Panzer II, so where is problem here?

13

People can use k98 and have panther so that logic doesn’t make sense

But they will be putted in battle with T-34-85 etc, not against T-60, it will count your highest rank, not your lowest.

Or do you think vehicles won’t have its ranks?

If you are talking about early war mosin. You will most likely not getting Berlin because you are mostly using early war weapon.

To make vehicles branch in the techtrees more worth to grind for some player who love vehicles, this idea may only apply for some events (maybe try for free in first several weeks of a new campaign release), and the XP gained when trying the new vehicle can be directly used to research it without previous research completed.

That would be most welcomed.

Could mess up the BR. Face Tigers with BT-7 because your inf BA soldiers have the better backpacks.

20

I can say the same about main weapons. Face tiger because ypu equipped one avs.

I don’t see a difference.

21

How are they going judge what is low BR and what high BR? Are Bar low or high br? what about multiple Thompsons? M1/M9 Bazooka? Or that BR rating will be only around few vehicles and M2 Carbine (which is awful anyway but very close range), can i take Browning m1919A6 to Pacific? It was manufactured since 1919. Or Johnson LMG to Normandy/Tunisia?

22

They said squads won’t have BR so most likely pouches, tnt, mines and nades also won’t have BR
