Actually it is strong because of buffs to this commander.
Vet 1 infantry mean one less vet level t get to OP vet 3
True, I wouldn't say vet 3 is OP because I don't have experienced them yet
flame + bar is great. It is actually one of best late game ai units at mid range if they get vet 3
Do you have any idea how many munis does it cost to get bars in addition to flamers? That's not even including the delayed tech due to bar research. You barely have enough for nades early if you want flamers at once
With elite riflemen its not all that hard to get vet 3
Flares can help you to negate their normal counter - hmg
Flares instawipe hmg squads now? Oh right they give vision for the non existant USF mortar, also, cost muni to use which means less bars/flamers. I don't see your point because axis hmgs suppress multiple squads in 1 burst
White phosporus is just You shall not pass arty strike , always good to call behind enemy and with conjuction with flare its perfect.
It's a good arty strike. Again, costs munis.
And in the end call in new buffed brads pitt Easy 8 to seal the deal.
LITERALLY
M4A3 Easy Eight
Now that the Easy Eight requires tech to build it we are adding additional stats to diversify the unit from the regular M4A3 Sherman.
Health increased from 640 to 720
Near penetration increased from 175 to 200
Literally 80 hp and 25 close pen, how are they so ''broken op buffed'' now compared to the last patch?
