Default Dumbest idea I've had lately

2 class slots per map for Commisar troops. They could shoot Russians or Germans and would get the equivalant of a TK when they missed One troop would be an officer with a TT33 and the other guy would have a Maxim.

lol. So anyone that doesn't run right out into the field and get instantly torn to pieces gets shot in the back of the head?

It would be interesting if that friendly on friendly exchange would be used instead of mines when leaving the combat area.

Another really stupid idea I had today (just looking at some of the Polish localization - very nice job, by the way):

A special mode for the Poles (not meaning to be offensive to the Poles...) - in Firefight mode, you don't spawn as German or a Russian, like everyone else. You spawn as a Pole - and you can kill everyone

or how about having a special role that carries a big backpack of food with him and task is to deliver a food, family gifts, mails, newspaper etc Would increase a morale amongst a team if he made it unscathed to run across a street during a fight:P

thats a really great idea, Wilson!

But not for the poles only, for everone:
Maybe some kind of new (unlockable) gamemode; you spawn as a convicted deserter who face death from court-martial.
But you can flee and now have to fight against your own team and the other team.

The avatar has no helmet and no green uniform. Just the white underskirt (of course trousers and boots).
So he can easily identified by his own team.





And if you really need an explination why he is free: he was guared by 2 soldiers who had to guide him to the execution aera.
Then a mortar shell or something exploded nearby and magically the fragments kill both guards but you were alive. Plausible enough?

The poles spawn in the middle and get killed by both germans & russians.

Why couldn't you, out of curiosity, Actin?

Actually, I'd love a Warsaw Uprising mod. Or even an AK KEDYW mod culminating with the uprising itself, where you'd get to play as Home Army soldiers first doing covert espionage-style and hit and run missions against the Germans and then play through some of the more famous actions of the uprising (e.g. the PAST building siege, the liberation of the remnants of the ghetto, etc.).
I lament my lack of aptitude with the SDK and a lack of a willing and able team to do it.
