ENLISTED PREMIUM SQUAD SALE! WHO TO BUY?

[@ShaneT.0331]

Yeah the Soviet premium paratroopers weren't on sale. I was hoping they were lol So, I went ahead and picked it up anyways. I think it'll be worth it to me.

[@Bonzomad]

Soviet paras are absolutely cracked. Both premium and f2p combined is just chef's kiss

[@quiteindeed6809]

Typically, it is the cheapest option to get a bolt action premium squad for ~1000 gold and then switch their backpack for a secondary weapon slot. That way you use all kinds of busted weapons that faction has.

I've been tempted to take my lebel boys and swap their packs and give them all fg42 2's but I just really don't like the lack of specialists in rifle squads. even a single engineer would make me like them more. still, I barely run rifle squads as is so ideally gimme 1 engineer and an at soldier and I'll be happy.

[@browning-wz.1928]

Browning wz. 1928 squad is best

[@EvilMonkey403]

the lvt tank needs a buff to add 2 extra machinegun soliders for the rear turrets, its japan counterpart has a massive number of tankers so there is no excuse

[@SerSaucy]

Ty subbing. Ty for being current😅😊

[@mrsenate5269]

would you consider doing a vid on BP weapons?

[@Zaharial]

sure, I'll try to put one out this week, I don't have all of them so I can't test all of them, but a can show the ones I do have and review the stats on the others.

[@blem5376]

Will they come back?

10:41 The main canon of the P-63A-10 and the Yak-9K only shoot armor piercing rounds. The 37 mm canon of the P-63A-10 can destroy German tank up to the Tiger II P except the Tiger II H as the latter have 40 mm top armor. The 45 mm canon of the Yak-9k can penetrate all German tanks from the top. Although both planes shoot AP ammunition for their main canon, they are good against air target as well.

[@Zaharial]

you are right i probably should have tested them, still though a 45mm ap round should down most planes, on a side note i really do hope we get the belt choices from warthunder at some point.

[@quiteindeed6809]

When in doubt, just buy them all, ammiright?

[@GGf-b4j]

I always use the us paratroopers to do a 5 min no stop bombing with the mortars to the point when I’m attacking, and then I use the engineer to build more ammunition for the mortar. I always end up with 20 kills or more, then I build a rally and assault the point. that is the only good use I got for the box of the us premium paratrooper squad

[@Zaharial]

fair enough, i do enjoy the "larger pockets" the paratroopers get, nice to actually have 20 mortars before you need to reload. not everyone is into mortars, but I like that tactic.

[@GGf-b4j]

@@Zaharial i just do it to disconnect from non stop dying and also it stresses a lot the enemy team because they don’t even know where the mortar is gonna fall, not like artillery. If you have a good team that marks where are enemy’s you can have easy 50 kills with 1 paratrooper squad, at least that is my record and was thanks to some random 2 guys that didn’t stop marking enemies

[@quiteindeed6809]

BF 110 C-6 is really a "don't touch it with a 10 foot pole bad" as the 30mm doesn't do anything to ground targets for the most part. So a crappy fighter with a cool camo....

[@overbuljongterning1]

Nice work Z, i really like your contrubutions 👍

[@Zaharial]

Thanks

[@micheletre2074]

Most of them are useless

[@quiteindeed6809]

P-63A-10 & yak-9k are great examples as to why you should try out any vehicle squad you want to have in the test range. P-36A last time I checked, doesn't have explosive filler or very good ammo for it's nose cannon(nearly none of the planes in the game do save for certain german 30mm's), whereas the yak-9k can more easily deal damage to tanks but also doesn't have any explosive filler. To check for explosive rounds effectiveness, shoot those standing targets at different distances away and see if they break or not, the closer you have to be the less effective blast radius. For the AP rounds from nose cannons, just fly around and shoot at the test tank targets, see if its as effective as you would like or not.
