Gewehr 41(W)

[GamblerSK]

Hello,could ostheer units use gewehr 41(W)? some earlyer troops later they can be upgraded to G43 or have them both (G41 can be cheaper 50muni and G43 75muni but i don't know if there will be the old concept of buying upgrades or something new just like russians) the G41 was used in eastern front and its not so often used rifle in the games (i know they wasn't so reliable but this is a game:) so a lot of people would like to see this piece of history

piece of history more like piece of crap. Sorry just had to say that I have seen it in games like Red Orchestra and it works just like the M-1 grand. you Can not reload it until both clips (yes it has two) are used (or just one) and it takes forever to reload and by then your normally dead

i know that it use same stripper clips as mauser and took more time but still you hawe 10 rounds then kar98 with 5
but i just like to see it in CoH more weapons is always better then less...
btw RO is good game and the G41 was a good rifle i used it every time when i could...

I would choose the G-43 any time I could over the G-41 same clips as the regular rifle and takes a decade to reload

those rifles can have troops as you buy them and can be upgraded with G43 later (just like Rifleman squad with their M1 garands and later BAR) i think its not so bad as you think:)

touche I like that but would you think they would be a tad to strong?

sure it use the same 7.92x57mm Mauser and barrel is long enough too,so strong at least like the G43
