What's fine about 76? What can it do? It is a worse unit than Panzer IV in every way. It has worse stats, it's not as cost effective, it's not much cheaper, it has worse veterancy, it has worse everything. How can you even defend this unit's existence? Please, make an attempt. I want to know what I'M not seeing in the hidden gem that is 76, because it has been an utter disappointment to everyone I've ever seen use them.
It can crush. Thats how I use it against okwblobs. I am not sure that the t-34/85 are as good as the 76s at crushing? If you compare it to a p4 it also comes out ealier, its cheaper and faster(?). But comparing units vs units isnt the best. In actual gameplay it is good at keeping up the early advantage you hopefully have. You can stall or gain advantage with it before you call-in the big guns.
