i think M3 needs a small armor nerf so it dies quicker to small arms fire. That's all i think that is wrong with it.
Maybe it can get it's old armor back when it hits vet 1 so its still useful later in the game.
Considerable. When an m3 is preoccupied with my grenadiers in cover, my flanking pioneers get behind the m3, and i even get
to faust it amidst the confusion, but the reward for flanking it is not high enough; the m3 survives, or somehow dies, but i lose an entire squad and the other retreats, the pasengers of the m3 are fine.
