Incoming patch is a good moment to look into a T70. This unit is too versatile. It can easily (sometimes even insta) wipe enemy squads, it's super fast, has a good penetration and high rate of fire, vets up quicky and with vet has a small target size so AT guns cannot hit it. With this unit on the field you can kill enemy infantry, stop axis light vehicule play (can 1v1 everything expect puma). Even puma sometimes in specific situations looses vs him. No other faction has such a powerful LV.
Balance team, T70 should at least has reduced penetration that cannot easily counter LV: p2, flak HT, flameHT/222. Reducing power of T70 to make it only AI weapon would open a play for SU76 just like OKW has p2 and puma in mech. Changing AOE would also reduce it's sniper gun into only a damage dealer (like currently p2 is). With T2 price change T70 will hit the field even quicker giving axis player a headache. It's need to be look into.
I dont think this is needed. It only serves to make everything the same. It does 40 damage and has 50 near pen. Nothing major. Soviets where designed with dual role units in mind, but mostly not excelling at either.
Paks have a pretty decent chance of hitting it. They should however never have 100% chance of hitting it. Ost has a perfect mine hand held at and vet ability to counter it. Imo it artives pretty late compared to luch etc. So it should be strong.
And if the t70 is to versitile as you say, doesnt the new ostwind meet the same critiria. It is a AI AAA and light AT unit.
