As you can see it can be perfect event squad or premium or even paratrooper squad for Japan. Since Japan has very few event squads so far the lowest of all the other nations and most of the times is just lazy squads. The only unique squad Japan got was the paratroopers only 1 squad and the worst ,the rifleman with the flags and the flame planes. All other event squads Japan got where lazy radio operators ,combat engineers, Apc squads and the Tiger 1 squad where all lazy ways the devs to say ohh look we are making squads for Japan but non of them where unique. So far Japan has the worst event squads.

I even suggest it

its not even a Chinese rifle, its Manchurian.
Besides some communist spies being in the region doesnt change the fact that the rifle was NOT used by the Chinese People´s Liberation Army during the Second Sino-Japanese war, especially since most of the rifles were deployed elsewhere by 1945.

it was a guerilla squads not a spies. Recon squad will be a good reward - even a new type of squads
They use all Mukden arsenal gear

NO Chinese stuff for Soviet faction, period.
Simple.

I dont get it, why do you want Manchurian weapons for Soviets so bad?
They make 101% more sense historically with Japan and its not like Japan does not the these guns more than Soviets. Even before Japanese occupation the Fengtian clique was closely aligned with Japan and hardcore anti-communist.
The claim that the weapon belongs to SU because Communist Chinese troops have maybe captured a handful of these rifles is just ridiculous on all levels.

Literally just two weeks ago I offered a bunch of guns on silver plate to SU faction, pick some other gun and stop your nonsense.

I like some good uniqe stuff for su. Chinese is closer allies. There was a joint operations with them - so gain hundreds of chinese uniqe guns is a great idea

I like yo have as more chinese squad as we can

Also we can have mongolian troops, polish patriots, 1st Czechoslovak Army Corps in the Soviet Union and many others

A respectable point, but you laid your eyes on a bad gun.
There really is no point for Soviets to steal this rifle from Japan.

I have suggested other unique rifles for Soviets and I still have one up my sleeve, not to mention that the topic I linked {firearms used by communist forces} is full of interesting and unique guns.

not a good idea if they have Chinese weapons, we would end up with Chinese troops running around in Stalingrad or Berlin, unless thats what you want.

So far all Czech weapons got added to Axis, which is the most historically accurate choice.

in the Western Allies.
Unless you are also fine with adding Russian Liberation Army to Axis since Polish Army in the east is just controversial for Polish people.

Well here he has a point Polish army in the east was part of the war and its not controversial. History is what it is if we go to controversial part Churchill said “Poland is a greedy hyena of Europe” so you cant change history cuz its not fitting your political view. Poland participated in Berlin offensive :

First Polish Army (1944–1945) - Wikipedia

As you can see its a real thing. As much as it can be added to the west it can be added to the east. But for sure it cant be added to Japan :smiley:
