What do you mean?

An upgrade for the assault class could be having one drum mag and two/three stick mags and a satchel bag of five grenades? During Stalingrad carrying as many grenades as you could was very popular, the Soviets even refereed to them as "pocket artillery". So, you wouldn't have much ammunition for your SMG, but you'd have enough grenades to clear out fortifications and hidey-holes.

You're simply supplied with a tree and some iron ore!




Pretty much this. There were no upgrades on weapons. The weapon was the weapon, all this accessory crap is really a modern addition. The only upgrade was a scope and they weren't just handed out like candy.

Yes as well a rifle grenade CLASS could be good if done correctly. There were even anti tank rifle grenades of questionable effectiveness. I'm pretty sure everyone wants to avoid noob tube syndrome though.

but modifications were common.

No, they did happen, but that doesen't make them common, not even a little bit, modified weapons where actually extremely rare for all but the resistance movements.

A lot of the resistance in occupied Europe needed to make the weapons they could get their hands on more concealable, so here we do see a fair bit of sawing off stocks and barrels, and even shorter home-made magazines and the like, but in the armed forces, modifying guns was extremely rare, we know of a few examples, but that's it, a few examples, so few they really don't belong in a game.

Really hit the nail on the head. Quartermasters didn't look too kindly on you sawing up your issued weapon. Modified WW2 weapons are extreemly collectable because of their rarity.

Here's some nice ones, mostly American.

These are upgrades that literally every player is capable of obtaining. You want it so that everyone can eventually run around with some upgrade that possibly one Russian partisan did on his weapon?

TWI really shouldn't feel obliged to add an upgrade for every weapon because then it'll go from "yeah that's possible" to "uh, what the hell is that". I guess it'll be more of a class upgrade as others have said and perhaps include a side arm or an extra grenade.
