veterancy suggestion (vet 4 vet 5)

[Trapmaker]

what if vet 4 and vet 5 let you choose from a pool of upgrades that differed from unit to unit and then the unit "type" would change accordingly for example machine guns for machine guns you could for vet 4 choose between an extra crewmember and a weapon upgrade for the crew ie 1 bar for americans and 1 stg/volk mp44 for wehr or being able to cloak in cover and for vet 5 these bonuses could be branched out further for example adding 1 extra crewmember and maybe changing the armor type or being able to get regular cloak all units would have differen upgrades to change things up and it would all be a significant upgrade in some manner which means it would feel like an achievement when you actually killed that vet 5 machine gun and it would give you more of a reason to keep units alive just my 2 ungrammatically correct cents

[Amagand]

Now thats one long sentence... Use these "." next time, ok? And it already feels like an achievement when you kill units that are vet 3+. Maybe some bonuses at vet 4 and vet 5 could be nice, but you are suggesting either op or nearly useless things.

Some of these things are unlikely to happen, because they may require the devs to actually make a new unit (I do not know the exact point at which this is necessary, though).

Giving extra weapons to weapon crews is nice, but it is already something to be added with doctrines (I think some of them change the weapons on the crews for more powerful versions).

the general idea is to keep vet 4 & 5 "presteige" levels for those units, though i'm looking into ways to spruce that up in game at least.

though at the moment, vet 4&5 do give ridiculous amounts of XP to whatever kills them, so feel free to hunt them down =P

I can confirm this.
