We’ve already seen it with bikes: these squads are pretty gimmicky and mostly a ticket drain. Doesn’t mean they can’t be fun, and while cap ability gives them more tactical possibilities that’s still pretty niche.
Turning the rider squads into proper recon units might increase their utility, even without a vehicle, while kind of matching their theme.
What I would suggest is giving these units the ability, while using binoculars, to auto mark enemy tanks, guns, emplacements and maybe even infantry if they are spotted in the binoculars.
This way a player using this class to scout could be very helpful to the team even if the map doesn’t support vehicle play or try to kamikaze the point.
