I wouldn't use 35 range supressable AT to fight a suppression platform but that's just me. IIRC the M5 is the most durable HT in a the game. The go to counter to M5 rush will be Paks and StuGs.

m5_halftrack_mp - 320hp.
halftrack_sdkfz_251_17_flak_mp - 320 hp.
halftrack_sdkfz_251_mp - 320hp.
m15a1_aa_halftrack_mp - 320 hp.
All halftracks have 320hp, difference in armor will work only against small arms, AOE and most weakest ballistic weapons, like Luch and 222 gun, for other weapons - it's non existing.

The Axis HT's take pretty significant damage from small arms and machine gun fire (comparatively of course), the M5 normally will only ever bet shot at by small arms which won't do much to it (other than incendiary rounds) or something that auto-pens like an AT gun.

It will be 0.09% vs 0.04% of penetration with majority of small arms, yes - it,s significant difference.

When I said small arm's I included heavy machine guns. Which will do not nice things to 251 HT's.
The armor of a 251 is 9 versus the 28 of the M5.

And so does 42 with AP rounds vs M5, and it's much more effective than Maxim or M2hb vs 251, and alleys MGs doesn't have such ability, only Dshk, which is doctrinal, in 1 playable doctrine, and also most expensive MG in the game.

Oh, like axis machine guns?
The heavy machine guns?
The ones that need 2 bursts of incendiary rounds to kill anything armored more lightly then T-70?
Oh yea, that'll make a HUGE difference.
Neither maxims nor .50 cals can tripple their penetration and double their damage, so you are right.
Allied halftrucks are incomparably more vulnerable to axis heavy machine guns fire then axis halftrucks to allied MGs.
For once you got something right.

Incendiary Rounds on the MG34 aren't very scary since the damage got cut in half. Really your biggest worry is the MG42 but you can still suppress it in a burst or two. The scary part isn't the M5 itself but the M5 + all the shit supporting it.
Remove the ability to garrison with the puppchen, give it 60 range and we will be all smiles.

isnt the incendiary bullet a different weapon? someone body confirm this plz because the mg34 incendiary is still pretty scary.
Anyway my rather silly question after reading all these complains about T-70 now is:
Did they remove PaK from Wermaht arsenal?
