The bayonet thing comes down to how you take that quick deploy bayonet/rifle combination and employ it with other gear. Yes, you might have a split second switch between the two, but that split second switch is there for everything else too Grenade -> Rifle, Mine -> Rifle, Wrench -> Rifle, etc.

The only way I could do it in No Mans Land was to dedicate a special class which had strictly two things: A rifle, and a bayonet. Another, with a Rifle, other misc melee weapon, and hand grenades. And a third, with a rifle, misc hand weapon, and rifle grenades. Making three rifle classes, each with their own specific abilities. The latter two were limited, to 1 per squad.

A map like Tunis is a prime example where this isn't important as nobody has grenade launchers.

Also kits like recon/engineer could always have bayonets on in close quarter maps (over knife/spade etc that they normally have because they would still have been ordered to put bayonets on).

Well, mate we could lave everything as-is if we use the '1' key to select the bayonet. By the way, we need more kits with bayonets. The FS knife is way too common within FH2, since few regulars could get hold of one. The were only issued to Commandos and the wartime demand for these knives was tremendously high, making them too expensive as a private purchase item. Aside from that, this Gucci-kit obsession was a very rare ocurrence back then.

and british engineers also had bayonets


Also the fact that the british engineer kits get only half the ammo is also bullocks...The German engy kit does get his full share..

Good point as well. Certainly a few times I've run out of ammo as the engineer.

Another minor suggestion:

Realized the DAK German faces and West Front German faces are different. And its always good to hae a vairety of faces, so why not mesh-hack them? So we can get a quantity of faces both in NA and Europe. And the NA faces look younger too. It would be good to have some young recruits in the Western Front and some expert veterans in North Africa, no?

Its kinda a bigger suggestion, maybe I'll make an independent thread about it.

I'm not stopping in the middle of the fight to look at my enemy's face. It's a waste of time.

I would also like to see more faces, especially in the British and Commonwealth factions. These are only having three different faces. I do understand that this is a low priority at the moment, but it would be awesome to have different faces for the Australians, Canadians and maybe even for the New Zealandean soldiers. Different faces for the British Army in Normandy would also be amazing. I remmber a gentleman called Ronisayswoot who did faces and re-skins of FH2 soldiers when he had time. If I recall correct, he made Marines for use in the Pacific theatre! I will look for the thread in which he posted the screenshots of his work. At the time he did not want to concentrate fully on FH2 because he still was an NML developer at the time. However, NML has been put on hold as far as I know, so he would maybe consider having a look at our suggestions.

Is it possible to change selectable kits between map sizes?  16p maps generally don't need an AT kit or an engineer kit.  It would be better if they were replaced with some regular fighting kits, different from those already there of course.  If the two kits mentioned are needed I would suggest just making a few pickup kits.
