it was fun to watch, but there were too many mass infantry movements.  also, vet 1 76 sherman losing to a stug was pretty silly.

in fact, i think this showcased how good stugs are. i've long thought they were too cheap, both fuel-wise and pop-wise.

Yes. Epic indeed.

Shoe's right. Their turrent may not turn, but they themselves can turn pretty quickly, and they need massive damage.

ya stugs and m10's are almost just to spammable for the expensive tanks to be worth what they actually are.. they shouldn't be cheaper then the AT guns Sad

The only reason my vet one sherman lost to the StuG was because AMPM's AT gun sent a homing missile into its ass and took it down from 3/4ths health to half health. Still, the fact that the StuG can go toe to toe with my vet 1 Sherman is a testament i guess.

Light and heavy tanks are worth the price, medium tanks like the Panzer IV and Sherman are NOT.

err... m10s are like 170 fuel for armored core with fuel efficiency and  380 manpower with the factory bonus..  if you pop a 1300 tiger or a 1500 fuel tiger ace on the field i could field like 8 m10s for the same fuel cost (end game popcap with the right doctrine choices could have 6 on the field at once myself.)...  of course i MIGHT lose most of those taking it out, but likely I wouldn't.

I do agree with the manpower costs being low, but the fuel costs might have gotten a bit out of control on the low side for the tank destroyers.

Yet those 6 M10s take up...66 popcap, compared to a 14 (?) popcap for the Ace. This means that the M10 force will not have any infantry on the field. In other words, keep the Tiger Ace on the field, call in shreked grens.

And, of course, feeding the M10s one at a time to the Tiger Ace is not a good idea, either.

i have to say that stug spam is now getting silly, in a two vs two we killed 9 tanks 1 of which was a panzer 4 the other 8 were stugs.

in my last 3vs 3 their was 6 stugs on the field at one time.

i prefer shermans to M10's anyway since my sherman killed a sideskirted PIV, only losing less than 1/4 of its hp.

well that would suck for armor core on the allied side, but seriously they should up teh fuel cost on the m10 and stugs, its crazy how cheap they are and how spammable they are becoming.

sad face for my armor company, maybe i'll be playing airborn afterall..

Unfortunately right now AT guns have little use due to how common and efficient infantry with RRs/Zookas/Shreks are.  You can retreat those infantry and use the RRs over and over again.  The AT gun usually dies in a battle it is deployed.

RR's and bazookas do jack shit, Shreks are a little better, but AT guns are the only good anti tank other than tanks.
