Historic squads and weapons on the battlefield

The reason I started playing this game is because it’s fairly historical and not as difficult as SQUAD 44. It’s no longer historical, with the Bersaglieri in Berlin and VG 1-5 in Moscow. I want to go back to the pre-merge environment. I want to use the PPSh-41 with a drum magazine in the Moscow campaign and the Semovente with the Italian tank squad in the Tunisia campaign. Watching gameplay videos of the pre-merge environment makes me want to cry.

It was never historical to begin with. Panzer 3b, madsen, g41 and gewehr 33/40 in moscow and americans running around with ww1 springfields and british bren guns in normandy. The devs always took “creative liberties” to either ensure balance or give new content. I think the best way to keep historical enviroment would be permanent even fight style events with only historical gear. Here the devs could also experiment with asymmetrical balance without messing with the main game

So no FG42s or T20s

Atleast a small amount of Fg 42 where used in the end of WW2!

There are some more Historical mods of Enlisted!
But they are rare!

I argued for a more historical mod seperated from merge in Enlisted Maybe Enlisteds needs a more Historical and authentical mode? - Archive / Suggestions - Archive - Enlisted — official forum

Well, I at least try to be as faithful to reality as possible. For example… Germany, I’ve been playing BR3 because…?

Example: AT soldier with KAR 98 BR1 and Panzerfaust 60 BR3, Assault soldier with MP40 BR2, Heavy Machine Gun with MG34 BR3. If I were to use the MG42, which is BR4, I would still keep the soldiers using the KAR 98 BR1 in the composition. I do what I can… and I tell you… it’s been a lot of fun playing like this.

Another example: USA, the Engineers and AT use the M1 Carbine, which is BR2, the ATs use the M9 Bazooka, which is BR3, and so on… always trying to be as faithful as possible to what they actually used.

I really struggle with the Japanese guys, lol, who used Type 38 BR1 and 99 BR2 models… For SMGs I use the Type 100 BR2 and for LMGs I use the Type 96 BR3 or the Type 99 BR3… I don’t use any Prototype rifles, even playing on difficult difficulty is still a lot of fun.

The Russians too… For example, as an AT soldier, I use the M1891/30 BR1 rifle and the rifle AT PTRS-41 BR1. I could face BR4s if I used the KV-2 BR3, but I still maintain this formation with this “historical” equipment. However, the Russians also used many Panzerfaust tanks left behind by the Germans at the end of the war. Of course, this was in Berlin… but since they actually used them, I also use tanks that vary between the 60 BR3 and 100 BR4 models.
