Battle Order: Give our soldiers one magazine of incendiary ammo for their main weapon and their sidearm each (Mountain troops excluded). Excellent for decreasing enemy morale, inflicting damage, and blowing up flamethrower troops.
Ok

Quote
Production Order: Paint our vehicles in camouflage colours.
OK

Obsolete the 1910 Mag, the MC16, the AS-A19C, and the AS-HF-24.
1910 Mag : Ok
MC16 : OK
AS-A19C: NO. We still have no cheap planes. The AS-A19C can continue to serve as such behind frontline positions.
AS-HF-24 : OK

While we're designing the assault rifle, should we add anything to the muzzle? A flash suppressor perhaps? We have the technology for sound suppressors already.

Glory to Arstotzka.

I was thinking about suggesting a wire-guided ATGM this turn...
We're doing absolutely fine when it comes to anti-tank. Our infantry, our land vehicles, and our planes are all capable of killing enemy mechanised units.
Hence why I have not suggested it, simply mentioned it. Perhaps we will need it next year.

Despite them both being 7.62mm, the bullets they fire are actually larger than our assault rifle bullets. It's also lighter than an LMG but bigger than an SMG and still automatic. Do I really need to explain the difference between a battle rifle, a light machine gun, and an assault rifle?
There are ARs in 7.62x~, along with pistols and SMGs. Please, please, PLEASE say the length of the round. Its confusing and aggravating. At the least say something like 7.62 rifle. Thank you.

As for the Nutzi ore, I dont support going and getting it. I do support denying it to the foe... Perhaps naval presence (as in our warship updated?) or a spy action?

Get that Nutzis ore and generally support Germany until we see how things shape before WWII. We can always say we were betrayed by Hitler because we thought he is going to be peaceful (and we sold him ARs... yep).

Let not make just a better rifle but
Do need an assault rifle?
If we just revise the AS-1924 to fire a shorter round (7.62x40mm?) and be lighter that should do the trick.

Lets sell that to the Nazis and make our a new gun for us.   

Totally not a bolter

Well i was thinking of selling them a modified AS-1924 light machine gun or the AS-F14A.

(The Nazis did kind of make a bolt pistol with there Sturmpistole
and both them and the Russians did use real exploding bullets.)

While the rocket rifle sounds interesting, it also sounds like something that could go spectacularly wrong if the design is not succesfull.

I just realized 1 thing. Moskurg has less ore next turn, even if they get the contract and recapture the mines.

Becomes Expensive

Stallion
Rhino
MK-47 Assault Rifle:
M3 Sorraia GPMG:
Hippo
Incinerator
Bumblebee
M3 Wasp Fighter B

Becomes very expensive

B2 Destroyer
T1 Smasher Mk II
Model 4 Yellowjacket

So, they loose most of their advanced infantry weaponry, as well as their anti tank weaponry, artillery and anti air. In addition, they loose their airforce, and loose their older tanks.

Yup, we're screwed. We'll get to find out if you can advance more than one step in a single turn!

I don't think much will change in the jungle and I am still not convinced we can capture the mines. Holding the desert however will depend heavily on what you can design. either something good, or we keep advancing.

What are you talking about? In my design I specifically mentioned it's chambered for 7.62x39mm? Did I do something wrong in that regard?

Glory to Arsotzka.

That's because our LMG and battle rifle rounds didn't have specified lengths. All I knew was that they were bigger than our assault rifle round.
