Thread: Mechanized M3 Halftrack25 Jul 2014, 19:30 PM Also, the callin costs more fuel than an m5 for something that has less than 1/3rd of the m5's armor. The m3 is not worth fielding at all. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: M26 Pershing25 Jul 2014, 10:03 AM Ok. We agree there for the 75mm m4a3e2 jumbo. It does its job very well, but nothing more. Jackson support added on will deal with anything heavier. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: M26 Pershing25 Jul 2014, 09:47 AM So the 75 jumbo would take out anything under a panther, bar a ranged tank destroyer like the jagdpanzer, yet have the same AI as any other 75 sherman. Except it has tons of armor and slower speed. And of course, be expensive... In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: M26 Pershing25 Jul 2014, 09:24 AM Tank on tank combat was precisely what the Jumbo crews were expecting. Even with a 75 mm gun, itll beat anything lower than a panther. With a 76, its going to take a lot more to bring it down. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: M26 Pershing25 Jul 2014, 08:33 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Jul 2014, 08:27 AMtheblitz6794 I was responding to multiple people. Thanks for the cherry picking. Anyways, a commander with the jumbo 75 and later the jumbo 76 as the final call in might be better then. 76mm shermans would be balanced with a high cost. But in my original build, there is no 76mm Jumbo Sherman. I have no clue where you got that from. It would be a 75mm Jumbo that could deflect most shots but would have sherman 75 (bad) penetration itself. A rakten probably would get rolled because it couldn't put out enough DPS. A panther would bounce every shot it takes, but pen have the shots it dishes out. The Jumbo 75 is like a KV1. It's not meant to fight heavy tanks. It's meant to soak ATG and crush infantry The Easy 8 is still inferior to the panther remember. It's a good all around tank, but nothing special. It just seems special because it's the best the USA has Like i was going to let you off suggesting that. Jumbo isnt crap. Why are you portraying it as that? It is meant to do many things. Its still a sherman. Just... why? Easy 8 is nearly the panther's match. Good armor, amazing AI, great penetration, and the most important of all: RoF. That alone scares the panther. Those suggestions... arent well thought out. Thats why I disagree and you rambling on isnt doing anything. Also, your description of the "Jumbo" seems to be very similar to the current 105 sherman - thatll do. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: M36 Jackson Tank Destroyer25 Jul 2014, 08:20 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Jul 2014, 08:18 AMLemonJuice it dies in 3 shrek shots It has 480 health. Many things kill it in 3 shots. Many of those things 100% penetrate. So yes, (not being rude to you, i realized it kind of looks that way, but its not, its simply straight to the point) In: COH2 Balance
Thread: M36 Jackson Tank Destroyer25 Jul 2014, 08:17 AM This is the softest and most squishy tank in a game. I can have a panther beat this thing. Panzerschreck squads make it squeal for its life. An at gun snaps it in half. It has 130 armor! It has only 480 health. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: M26 Pershing25 Jul 2014, 08:04 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Jul 2014, 07:48 AMtheblitz6794 Um, the Jumbo historically could be penned by panthers, raktens, ect. It will be almost impervious though to stugs and P4s 76mm upgrade requires you to go T4 to get the 75mm shermans to upgrade. 76 shermans can be a staple or a filler. Who says they have to be one or the other just because they're a staple with Soviets? You are kidding, right? Are we even playing the same game? The E8 runs over raketenwerfers, and challenges the panther. It also demolishes the rest. You are saying that the Sherman jumbo, a sherman that would have a 76 mm gun, and even more armor than the e8 would have a problem with panthers and raketenwerfers? Sure. I was imagining it costing 190-230 fuel because of how tough it would be. 75mm Shermans are ONLY in T4. What you said about the upgrade requirement didnt have to be written. It would be a staple because you are making the standard tank badass. You fit 3 amazing aspects in one commander, when divided they can make 3 unique commanders. One commander being 76 shermans, one involving jumbos, and one, if Relic lies, the Pershing. But the Pershing did nothing for the war. Shermans deserve the spotlight. There are still a-ways to do with Shermans, and they provide more support to the overall theme of the faction. A 75mm Jumbo (or the lack of the 76mm cannon on one) kind of sounds lackluster and reminds me of the 105 m4 sherman... why settle for less, sherman-wise, when you can have a battle tank capable of taking on heavies?

Thread: M26 Pershing25 Jul 2014, 07:23 AM So it sounds like a unit that wont even make it into the battle. Pretty historical. There are gaps in RTS. Its why the devs themselves said no to it. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: M26 Pershing25 Jul 2014, 07:02 AM Jump back to quoted post25 Jul 2014, 06:56 AMtheblitz6794 No, different faction design. Although I am envisioning 1v1 and 2v2. In any case, USA thrives on attacking. Stopping your tech and defending doesn't seem like the best route. OKW players don't delay for the KT or JT now do they? You'll have a massive window where you need Jacksons to fight his panthers and you have no Jacksons Did i list OKW? NO. There was a real discussion arguing of the lack of teching soviet players are able to do into call in tanks. Soviet t2 provides a mortar, a mg, and a AT gun. I said USF can exploit both T1 and T2 to do the same. People are doing it with the E8, it isnt that hard at all. Ostheer refuses to tech to t4, barely investing in t3, if at all, and instead getting Tiger. In: COH2 Gameplay
