holy cow, you are still stuck on the cover meme, you are really retarded...

The cover is useless, especially versus most axis units that will just blow the crew regardless of cover.

Again your theorycrafting is great but in reality it just doesn't work.

And why the hell would I keep paying a shitton of munitions to MAYBE penetrate one shot against a tank when I'm playing the most munition-hungry faction on the game?

Except it doesn't, and you are the biased one that came in talking crap and delivered no evidence, only theory and goalpost moving.

The Jackson TD is not balanced.

Why? Its sight. Let me give you this comparison: the SU-85 has the ability to extend its frontal vision at the cost of speed and peripheral vision, this is a risk vs reward mechanism. Its vet 1 ability to moderately increase all-round vision, but this is a veterancy reward.

The jackson meanwhile has both the range and vision at no veterancy to snipe off tanks and simply run.

''But it has thin armor''

That is irrelevant because its visibility + range, not speed, makes its armor irrelevant as it can simply fire and run. I am not for slowing it down as that would not reflect its thin armor, I am for normalizing its sight.

That award easily goes for the turret-less tank-destroyers (with the exception of the ISU-152, Elefant, and Jagdtiger of course). Caught an SU-85 out of position? Oh well, it can't even fire back at you, because it has neither mobility nor turret.

...and elephant that shoots halfway across the map out of FOW, have incredible hp and armor and enough speed they can usually always just back there ass up in a corner before you can get behind them. thats bullshit almost no downfall super tank bullshit.

extra hp, smaller size, and/or extra armor do wonder for survivability. casemate TD require you to flank and are decent in trading shots. Flanking the jackson is nice but not required. You just need to get close.

The Jagdtiger also got a pretty big buff last patch since it doesn't get randomly stunned anymore.

it still get stunned

I still advocate giving it Spotting Scope functionality, so that it can see further when parked. That's what the open top was for in the first place, better visibility.

the check is gone from the weapons. Unless it's been move to someplace else, jagdtiger no longer get stunned.
