Instead of requiring 10 regular grunts. You can purchase special forces grunts for perks. Say only 3 special forces grunts required for a capture, making the jeep more relevant for a base capture.

I think they already are special forces. :aok

HTC has their reasons, what they are and why is for them and only them to know.
I've vouched for a multitude of changes regarding troops. Everything from specialized troops to destroy auto ack and other OBJ, to allowing more troops on C47 and LVT to be more accurate to the #'s they actually carried.
To this day it remains 10 troops per troops carrier ('cept the jeep), and 10 troops for capture. I'd like to see troops be a real concern. Being able to shoot just 1 of them and save the day for the defenders is a bit too easy.

Do they flip tanks?

They are already 101st airbourn, what do you want now, rangers?

I was thinking the U.S. troops could be rangers, the british troops could be s.a.s., japanese troops could be ninjas. Not sure what the politically correct German troops would be.

That is another thing that would be neat to have: say US marines from the LVT-2, British paras from the C47, US or Soviet infantry from the M3, German infantry from the SdKfz 251, and pick your poison for the jeep.

"PC"??? In the eyes of many there is nothing "PC" about Germany in WWII, 'cept those of us who understand the larger context. In short though, having basic German infantry would suffice. I think it to be HTC policy to not have any swastikas, so nothing to really worry about.
-
the way the troops are now is just fine
-
as long as the Russian troops carry a vodka bottle with them..

I think our troops need to look like this

+ 1 only maybe require two sets, so 6 perked elite troops = 10 drunks or when mixed 3 = 5. In short 6 elite, 8 mixed or 10 regular troops destroy the maproom.
Here is an addition that would see them used more often: Give them live ammo, to kill any enemy chute trying to defend within a certain diameter. The animation doesn't have to be any different than the explosion that occurs when maproom is captured. Just add blast radial damage so chute will die and friendlies do not (perfection).

Found the flaw in my 3 for 5 and 6 for 10 concept.
- Any compliment of elite troops that are not a full set of 3 (one stumbles and never makes it to the maproom or has help not making it to the maproom)
will only count as 1 regular troop. - So 2 elite troops in maproom still need either 8 regular troops or 4 elite troops for capture.
Likewise 4 elite troops IN, need either 6 regular or 2 elite troopers to capture the maproom.
Made me think of this Gimli quote. :D

Oops mistake in my math ^ need 4 regular or 2 elite
