Question about the 5th Pioneer Battalion (GER)


How many men can this squad equip? I like Fallschirmjager squads, but using nerfed squads with bad weapons to boot is just not a great combo deal.

Also: Is the switchable weapons bug still a thing?

It’s not a bug, it’s on purpose, which is stupid in my opinion and should be fixed to where we’re able to swap thwir weapons out

But it still can be done, right? And the squad can have 5 or 6 men?

For me, i cannot change their weapons. You have 4 engineers and can add one additional anti tank gunner.

Well, that sucks ass.
If it’s so random, then I guess I won’t buy it and I’ll wait for the Kiraly 43M

It’s already fixed.

Well, then this squad is double-decker bad.

It seems they’ve completely abandoned this squad. Right now it only comes with four premium engineers, plus maybe one anti-tank soldier at most.

My suggestion is it should at least have one more slot than the regular silver-line squad, extra spot for an AT trooper.

This squad has basically turned into nothing more than a collectible. Its primary weapons can’t be changed, and you can already get similar loadouts on TT. It’s just like the premium medic squad—totally neglected by the devs. It only exists to trick new players into buying it, and they’re never going to bother touching its code to fix it.

They should honestly atlest make it to where premium squads with TT weapons should be replaceable.

I totally agree. The devs already made this kind of squad with their new code before—the Soviet paratroopers.

Old legacy squads like this that already exist in the tech tree deserve a proper rework and revival, yet they just keep ignoring them. Such a total waste of potential.
