Mirror USF at gun with UKF 6 pounder

+1.

To people complaining that it already deals with medium armour and doesn't need a buff - This will not change the performance of the gun vs medium armour - it already pen's med armour well.

It just needs a buff against heavy armour, that's all this change would affect. USF has to rely on Jacksons, with less health than a stug, to tackle late game. They need another option - no debate - as lategame the USF combined arms faction has only one arm.

Nope.
This would require changes to Jackson.

It reliably fights off medium tanks.

and then, why not buff zooks??? I mean, usf has inferior handled at weapon (zook) compared to Shrek, and worse at gun than pak. Then, someone suggests buffing the 57mm but you say that then, nerf to jackson is needed.

Why?? osther has pak40 and sherks, and no one is asking to nerf panther and stug for that reason.....


Surely, I´m missing something, as I am just a noob in balance duties but...I don´t get it, it has non sense to me what you say....


Again, just asking, I have not knolegde to balance rts games, but....just curious...

Although I'm not the USF 1v1 pro all knowing player here. I will say that the USF does not need a better anti tank gun.

They need tanks that don't die to 3 pak shots. Or at least tanks that can RNG luck their way out of being killed; like axis tanks usually have a chance of doing when it comes to being countered.

Why does USF even have the 57mm?

The 76mm AT Gun was the standard for the time period.

Agreed, either remove it from 6 pounder, or give all at guns this.


You will always have people who are bias towards one specific faction, that will never change. As to your remark about bazooka being worse in reality than a panzershreck, that is not a way to balance a game, bazooka should be as a reliable anti tank platform as the panzershreck, minus the model sniping. If the bazooka is improved to be on par with the panzerschreck, a cost increase must be made most definitely.

Free Ap shells (long cooldown) or better AP shells.
