M10 have all it place in Major Tier (which is T3, Captain is T2), we are talking about a 90fu tank destroyer more than capable vs Pz4. I mean if you are a bit late and know a Pz4 is coming, a M10 can be a real surprise for your opponent. But put in Captain tier and it will kill any medium tank play, a situation similar to what we have today with Mobile Defense.
So I don't think Major M10 + Pershing would be too strong, M10 are not good vs Panthers and panthers are what kill pershing. Sherman Bulldozer is a dead horse and I don't know how to make it any better than a sherman with HE shells.
M10 + Pershing would force your opponent to build Panther and punish (but not prohibe) actual Ostheer T3 meta and more globally Pz4 rush and spam.
If anything should go, it is the 240mm barrage, and maybe replace it with CP0 Raid Tactic. So you can use your tank to cap and gives a bit more vision to your infantry during a laps of time. Something not too strong on its own but interesting to use combined with some skilled ideas.
Sorry about that T4/T3 confusion, you are right
i updated my post
It would be strong, but if you put M10 in Mayor tier, nobody will use it since Jackson is just so much better. For me it is obvious choice to wait for Jackson (im mainly 2v2 player). I guess, since it was nerfed from a call-in to the current state, it won't be revoked ... So i guess it could stay the way it is :/
About that buldozer being useless? Have you tried putting sherman HE vs rakketen and Buldoboy vs rakketen? I'm telling you that Sherman is likely to die or get very low, althought Buldoboy can wipe it with one shot or two. Apart from that it is
call-in, so you can skip Mayor tier and rush this tank if we lower CP req. The only problem it has is accuraccy, which would need a slight buff since sometimes it misses too many times :|
Giving Pershing and removing buldozer will remove it from all commanders, so i don't want that. Also The idea with two commanders having Pershing is nice, but i would like new December Commander have it not Armor Company dude.
You are saying M10 + Pershing, but honestly i don't see that happening. When i go for Pershing i always skip Mayor tier so i can get it faster (in 2v2 its about 20 min). The additional fuel i spend on Stuart( which is mediocre) to keep myself in game. This way the M10 will be nonexistent, thats why i wanted it in T2 :/ If at some point you decide to go for Mayor Tier(long game) you are probably already facing panthers, so M10s are useless
I said giving Pershing would be too strong, but i call that back since it wouldn't. I just like the unique Buldozer call-in. It would only if we move M10 to T2, but it by itself could be too strong.
I'm happy you agree with 240mm being replaced, but Raid Tactics when you can hop out of vehicles ? What do you think about my 155mm light barrage idea?
