Default Re: Bar vs FG42 is it a draw?

Hi Narwan
Well as for SOP, doctrines,tactics I can add this.
The normal infantry practice is for half the rifle squad to bound forward some few metres hit the dirt, take up a fire positions and then provide covering fire for the other halfs bound. This is done while the LMG suppreses the target.
In this situation in the FG42 armed paratrooper rifle squad you will have 3 FG42s firing from a stationary prone position at any one time, surely enough justification to give the rifle squad at least the same acc/hit values as the single BAR gets in the same role? And what about on the defence? You have all 7 of the rifle squads FG42 being used exactly like the single BAR yet all 7 added together only get one twentieth of a single BARS accuracy value?

The current FG42 values seem to be based on the assumption that the FG42 is never used in a stationary or prone position wich doesnt make much sense to me. If just one of the 7 or so FG42's in the rifle squad is being used in the stationary prone position (which is pretty likely in almost any situation) then this first 'rifleman' weapon slot for FG42 should have the same or better value than the BAR slot.
Regards Chuck.
