T34/76 is bad choice?
No one would call in T34/76 if T34/85 would be doctrinal?

Gosh... You are talking such bullshit like yesterday's 3 Paras Thompsons vs Obers which I proved you are wrong.

T34/76 is amazing tank.
It's worse than PzIV or Sherman, yes. But it's damn spamable. I ve killed counteless Tiger, Panther and King Tigers with T34/76.
They work perfect with for example Urban Defense commander or any other than force paks to move back or just take them out of combat (incendiary strike or propaganda). With those you completly negate AT Gun and someties even infantry. This leaves 3-4 T34/76 vs King Tiger, Panther or Tiger.
Yes, you will lose many of them while fighting KT or Tiger but they are not like IS2 or ISU which are very valuable for you and you can't lose them. You can lose them and you will replace them without any problems.

Of course there are maps where they might be useless like Trois-Points. Small, narrow, witouth any place to flank but of those maps Shermans and Jacksons are useless as well.

Commander with 7/8CP T34/76 call in? Take my money Relic!

Your PaK has to stop, reload, and then fire meanwhile the quite fast t34/85 will probably not sit in the face of an enemy AT gun.

He said mark target but in his other post said old button.

And old button made you unable to reverse, or rotate. Sure you could use smoke but against someone who can attack ground if your buttoned he's still going to kill you.

And the Target weak point stun doesn't last nearly as long as Old Button did, sorry.

I said TWP.

Yeah the ability to instantly declare a tank dead if it approaches your guard squad is obviously balanced.

Button could use a buff/change, but fuck if it needs to be old button.

Target Weak Point

At least button was breakable. TWP is not.

A. Never get into close combat with Sturms. B. If your losing retreat, Sturms have much less DPS on the move. and C. Don't give Sturms hugs with your LMG infantry.

Do you also think Ober's should beat Shocks in close combat?

Do you see difference between point blank, close, medium? It close/medium. Not hugging LMGs distance. 3 Models left, they have 1/4dps lower, they are damaged, Paras are full health, not moving (full dps) and still losing to SP negating all rules.

Of course Obers will win agasint Shocks. Smoke is useless since Obers can shoot with LMG on the move and while getting close, Obers will inflict enough damage to deal with them at close range.
The only situation when Shocks can win against Obers is when they jump out around the corner or when Obers shoot at something else so Shocks can get close without any damage.

Buy STGs for them and they will become even more stronger. Vet3 Shocks have no chance vs vet 3/4 Obers with STGs. Guards with LMGs have no chance at long range with STGs Obers. Thery are melting eveyrthing. No matter if it is close range or long range.

Not sure I get your point here. RNG is just that, sometimes ie. Grens beat Cons in a close range fight or vice versa at long range but that is not overly meaningful, the statistical average is. 1919 Paras excel at static combat from standoff distance, their LMGs, which are their main dps dealers, have only 25%(IIRC) accuracy on the move. Sturms on the other hand, with their assault rifle weapon profile, excel at defeating flanks, and you played right into your opponents cards here.
I'd really advise a-moving to contact with all LMG squads on the minimap, even if you only intent to cap, as this protects you from nasty surprises, such as running into Shocks, and closing the distance for them. After you get the audio, position to cover. Dedicated CC squads like Shocks on the other hand should always use conventional move orders as this will prevent you from losing any time in closing to ideal engagement range.

I dont see moving Paras. I see not moving Paras with 100% DPS from LMGs.
Point is, it's 6full health models pure combat infantry vs 3 damaged models with lowe DPS of not pure combat infantry. Erease all vet bonuses and SP would be dead in a second. It's all about broken veterancy. Why they get 60% accuracy while Paras only 25%? Vet 5 system is broken.

Sry dont want to be a jerk here, but on reviewing that engagement, you actually did mismicro that badly. I know it is frowned upon in some quarters, but a-moving is absolutely recommendable with all LMG squads upon contact.

It does not matter. Paras have higher DPS. Full health. Its all about bad rng but insane vet.
