Squad members :4
Manpower :400
Creation time: N/A
Upgrades : Panzerschreck, MP44
Abilities:
-Throw Bundled grenade (40 ammo cost)
-Camouflage
Weaponry
Like the Grenadiers you can buy 2 weapon upgrades for this squad whether 2 MP44s, 1 MP44 and 1 Panzerschreck or 2 Panzerschrecks, and each upgrade has a cost of 75 ammo.
Use the 2 MP44s if your enemy is producing lots of infantry, as MP44s will tear any infantry to shreds at close range. If your enemy is going for Armor, break out the Panzerschrecks.
Whether you choose the most balanced option , 1 Mp44 and 1 Panzerschreck your squad will handle acceptably both for armor and infantry conflicts
Abilities
Camouflage:
This ability is what really helps set Stormtroopers apart from other infantry, and what makes them so dangerous.
Just picture this....You are playing with the Americans.... walking with a couple of Rifleman through a small town
and.... suddenly from nowhere a Stormtrooper squad appears and utterly obliterates your Riflemen
Camouflage is ideal for ambushes and sudden strikes to the enemy.
Bundled Grenade:
Bundled grenade are perfect for clearing buildings filled with enemy troops or to be thrown to a heavy cover area.
Production
Stormtroopers can only be called upon while using the Blitzkrieg Doctrine. As such, they are not produced from any building.
Other Information
-Stormtroopers are most effective when used in small groups, preferably with mixed weapons.
-Stormtroopers are perfect for protecting your precious Tiger I tanks, because they can use their Panzerschreks to prevent the tank from being swarmed.
-Stormtroopers can also make good recon elements, because of their Camouflage ability. That is, if you are willing to waste a perfectly good front-line unit for intelligence duty!
