Every game I call in m10s, they really don't do...anything. I hope they can survive a puma. Against a P4, which was a pretty fair fight in vCoH, I'd gtfo.

Their gun always misses seems to be the problem. Anyways, what's the deal? Are they supposed to be weak? They need some love

And on top of that it have extremely sluggish turret, which means you can't use it as a flanking vehicle and because of short sight, you can't use it the way you use puma.

Just get jackson that actually is useful.

M10 is useless except in 1v1 vs ostheer, and even then it's not that great. Its accuracy is horrible and it dies in three shots from anything.

This thing needs some love I think. Last time I built one nothing was accomplished. I was having better luck spamming 105s. Sadly 105s will never see the light of day since no AT

Too bad they have a super long dispatch cooldown, need dispatch bulletins! :P

A super fragile tank destroyer with only 50 range, what could go wrong?

What is a puma?

Correct me i'f I'm wrong. But isn't the m10 not just a slightly better puma, which has alas no smoke?
Sure, nice axis have heavier tanks so it's use is limited, however it works fine against medium armour and the rear armour against heavy tanks.

Slightly better? I think you mean a lot worse.

Is that really so?

M10:

-higher armour
-higher penetration
-armour piercing rounds
-comes too late (probably biggest problem about it, 5cp would be better)

Puma:

-Higher acceleration.
-Ai capabilites
-smoke
-precision shot

higher armour
Yes, everything bounces off M10 didn't you know? :lolol:
higher penetration
I guess I've seen puma shots bounce off soviet heavies occasionally :lolol:
armour piercing rounds
Is this supposedly an advantage over Aimed Shot or Target Weak Point? :lolol:

Puma also has better sight range.

So basically all of the M10's advantages are not really advantages at all because they make absolutely no difference whereas the puma's advantages are extremely powerful.
