Spearhead also makes its mounted machine guns suppress.
Same with the KT.

Weak point of USF was and should always be the Armor department. But if you look at the current 8 commanders 4 of them give you better tank options:
- Armor: Bulldozer, M10
- Cavalry: Pershing
- Mechanized: 76mm Sherman
- Rifle: E8
Now a lot of players want a better tank in the new USF commander, demanding an E8 or the 76mm Sherman. That would mean that you would get in over 50% of the US commanders better tanks than Wehrmacht can get with T3. This sounds bad imo, USF can not have the best light vehicles, superiour infantry, the best TD in the game and premium mediums in the most used commanders at the same time.

You forgot wermacht has nondoctrinal panther that counters every piece of armor usf can deploy, pershing included.

Thats my point: Wehrmacht NEEDS to go T4 to stay relevant, yes, Panther can counter all us tanks but the unit is very expensive and you also need reliable AI as Ostheer. That means you have to also build Brummbaer. Because of Allied TD's and Tanks like the T34-85 there is no place for Support Armor Corps anymore.
I concede that my post is provocative but you should also keep in mind that an E8 /76mm Sherman could be stronger after a rework. And if you say that the 76mm Sherman is shit... what does that mean for the Wehrmacht PIV (cheaper and a little bit weaker than 76mm Sherman?

Then in the last iteration of the preview patch, they abandoned that and shoved almost everything they'd cut back in. Some abilities like Artillery Cover were bolted in strange places. Goliaths and Warning Flares, two abilites strong enough to carry the pre-revamp Overwatch commander by themselves, got bundled to make way for the buffed up Sector Assault.
Mechanized, Tactical Support and Overwatch aren't in scope, so there's nothing that can be done to trim those back now.
But please don't let feature creep get to the new commanders.

Wermacht has the option to go panther without any doctrine choice, usf biggest "tank" without doctrine is probably jackson, if it counts. They can also go one of many tiger doctrine for callin tank without tech and tiger is stronger than any usf tank by the numbers....

T-34-85 and Katty exist together.
Panthers and Werfers exist together.
OKW PzIV and Stuza Z.F. exist together.
Can't see good mediums and rocket arty suddenly now being a problem.

You know people didnt use easy8 in months when they say it would be too strong with calliope (LOL). If okw p4 with stuka and t34/85 with katyusha are ok then how can easy8, tank with less hp than t34 and less armor than p4, be too strong with anything? Tiger with pwerfer, comet with mattress, is2 with katyusha, kingtiger with stuka are all ok but a fricking EASY8 IS TOO STRONG? Please at least play ONE game with this tank before speaking out.

Check your stats they are simply wrong.
Easy8 has more armor and HP than both T-34/76 and of PzIV and thus it more durable. It also has a superior gun.

Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Maybe you should end your common practice of reading every single word separately and then over analyzing them in vacuum and learn to read a sentence to grasp the context of all these single words bunched up in a line?

Dozer Blades are too little to not be bundled with something.
But since it doesn't fit the Commander as well as the 105 Sherman, replace them with it, then put the Calliope behind tech and buff it a little more.

and then enabling the Calliope's gun sounds like an interesting idea.
