Staccato Roar on tank MGs and .50 cals is amazing and totally worth it.
 
But on .30 cals it's overcosted and not worth using. It's 125 mp on a fragile platform.

The Staccato tank aura is nice if you're running a Sherman or TD company, but not a Pershing company.

This is my 2 cents, for now.

The thing with the perma-AP .30s is to use them in pairs as a "fuck off LVs" mechanism. Nothing makes suicide pumas go poof faster than a pair of AP .30s chattering away at them.

 Additionally, I'm fairly certain you can also stack the normal AP burst ability bonus on top of the permanent one; in each instance it ADDS 50 to the MG's penetration (base pen = 51 or 101, then, -> multiply by its pen modifier against X armor type).

I would say that the "best" Armor build would be 4-5 Shermans with Staccato MGs, self repair kits, and optional HE rounds, with 2x rep squads (3x reps each) in reserve. Back them up with 3-4 ATGs and spend what you have left on nade-equipped suicide Riflemen and uses of Tactical Bombers (coyly named Broken Arrow by Tachicomedian); it basically calls in loitering rocket runs in a 60 m radius around where you place it--if the opponent doesn't immediately opt to fuck off, he's going to get his teeth kicked in. If he does move, however, damage would be minimal.

Don't pretend you don't call it that as well.
