We need to make a new set of "armor" that use infantry as the object.
At the very least the MG42. Give it a speed of ~1kph. We can then have them move, pause and fight, move, and so forth. This would be VERY useful in the PTO. We can also use the hold fire setting so that they wait until the enemy comes within X meters to shoot.
If this can be done, ideally the ROF would be reduced a little.
If this is easy, then I'd like to see a skirmish line (line abreast, rough, pretty widely spaced) of the various troops we have now. Some shouldered, some holding them in front, some shooting. Give it one MG with a low ROF and same slow, 1kph speed.

This is funny, I had idea to make humans long ago and I even opened few slots for them to test the concept. I put that on hold as I was busy with ships but I started to work on this again yesterday and I was thinking about posting some screenshots when i saw your post.
In my test I'm using Car as base for humans. This mod is in very early stage but it is promising. I made few humans but I have enabled 10 slots although I'm using one slot for TargetBox testing.
I can upload this WIP for you and you can play with it. Most important is that all of your ideas are possible IMO and I know how to do it.

PS I'll post few screenshots later.
