I think it can kill 50mm before 50mm kills it.

From what?

Um... a PaK? We're talking about American ATG killing an axis half track in two hits. The german equivalent gun takes 3 shots to kill the american equivalent half track which is half as much fuel.

^ it suppresses like a .30 cal it has similar stats.
the vicker on the carrier has 1/3 of the suppression of the .30cal/mg42/stationary vicker. It is not "similar"

You forge the American ATG takes longer to fire between shots and has a longer tracking traverse, while the axis gun can shoot faster and can ambush on the first shot.

No, I didn't "forge", but we're not talking about AT anyway, we're talking about the cost of a halftrack.

They cost the same btw.

Bren Carrier   220mp 30fu
Infantry HT   230mp 35fu
Wher HT       220mp 25fu
M3 HT          220mp 25fu

The CW/PE HTs are more expensive for obvious reasons, I'm curious as to how the "the american equivalent half track which is half as much fuel".

Dude don't even bother posting if you're just going to reply to the last comment out of context. No one mentioned manpower or those other half tracks.

@ Vertigo - Uh, out of context? Killer is totally in context since you brought it up.  The HTs are all roughly same price except for the PE one for it being Open-topped. Anyway clearly I see your name in mention to HTs:

Um... a PaK? We're talking about American ATG killing an axis half track in two hits. The german equivalent gun takes 3 shots to kill the american equivalent half track which is half as much fuel.

Also let me quote you yet again:

No, I didn't "forge", but we're not talking about AT anyway, we're talking about the cost of a halftrack.

My bad for forgetting the 't', but again you are the one bringing up cost of the halftrack.

meh it seems like it i must've looked at the numbers wrong but it's still pretty good great thing about them though is that they dont pin very fast so they can kill when things are suppressed

I think what he meant was UNsuppressd like the .30cal in terms of damage.

^ right. they dont suppress as fast as the 30 cal bu tthey do a good amount of damage and what i meant firesparks since u seem to not get it even tho ur an rgder is that because bren carriers dont PIN fast, they stay SUPPRESSED long thus enabling them to have more damage dealt to them unlike the mg42 which actually does more damage but because it pins so fast the damage output is lower. I've had 3 bren carriers on one infantry unit and not pin it but it stayed suppressed until i could kill it or it ran away.

Wow, you're right! I didn't know about the target table buff. So, the halftracks are both 2 AT rounds a pop. However, the allied M3 is still cheaper.

How can it be CHEAPER when they cost the exact same...? The only difference between the two is...is this: M3's MG is ultimately BETTER than Axis HT's but Axis HT has HUGE Suppression in it and it comes with 2 MGs instead of 1

the m3 mg isn't better, it just seems to do more damage because it wont pin as fast, I explained this with the bren carrier. IF you have infantry near the m3 ht and the wehr ht, the wehr ht will kill really fast but at medium/long range it'll pin you fast while the m3 wont so it has more chance to do its full damage.
