Sexton - most pointless unit ever

I believe the Greyhound wins the award for most useless unit, but this is a close second.

Wc-51, USF M3 Halftrack, Ostheer 250 Ht.

Okay you win, the 250 is the most useless.

For the price I would rather have a WC-51 or a USF M3 than a greyhound though.

Yeah its overpriced afk compared to the 222.

Same story with the WC-51.

Oh wait...what about the ToW soviet Zis truck

M-42, not even the best at being the worst

None of these units cost 90 fuel and 400 MP.

Doesn't 250 allow you to snipercar like the old Soviets? Still not a good unit, but not quite the horrific waste of resources represented by greyhound or Sexton

Greyhound's fighting capabilities might be bad but its still great recon unit with sight bonuses same as t70 observer mode at vet2/3 while greyhound dont have to go to observer mode so it shoot all the time while providing sight for 3/4 of the map. Combine vet 3 greyhound with jacksons and u got ultimate anti tank power on the field with unlimited sight.

M20 got exactly same sight bonuses, cost half as much fuel, is easier to vet up, puts down mines and arrives earlier.

Why greyhound again?

Anyway, I had a dream.
In that dream the PERFECT faction was born.

Relic emergency force:

Main infantry:
Penals.
AT inf squad:
PTRS cons, but PTRS are too damn good to be a stock weapon, so lets put it doctrinally only in shitty one dimensional no-late game doc.

HMG: MG34
AT gun: M-42
Early game indirect fire: Fighting position rifle nade(lets say CEs use them, RETs scale way to good to be here)

Light vehicles:
Greyhound
WC51
250
And non up gradable USF M3.

Medium armor:
Well, T34/76 obviously!
And for AI I'll go with Brummbar.

Heavy tank:
KV-2

Indirect fire:
Sexton, there was no alternative here.

Now tell me, who wouldn't want to play with that faction?
