So I mainly experienced Normandy Tank balance yet but Panzer III N which has the wrong cannon Pz 3 N has a 75mm KwK has no chance against the comparable US tank. I mean it doesnt have to be something over the top but at least smth comparable to the Shermans. Same Goes for Pz 4 vs Sherman Jumbo. Thats simply unbalanced there surely is better alternatives that could pen the Jumbo but this is pointless as it is now.
I have been mainly playing Battle for Moscow but Panther tanks were definately in production in 1944 and for something comparable to a good replacement for the III N could I would suggest the Pz. IV F1/2 since the armour is decent but the gun difference is for the devs to decide which is more balanced.
perhaps the jumbo should be replaced by sherman firefly, or Sherman 75.
it would be more balanced.
( and the jumbo was not present during normandy campaign )
Sherman 75.
The firefly has no place at normandy.
ba 11 was also not present in moscow…lol they could not fix the model so they sold it as premium unit
wasn’t there shermans with the 105mm howizter in 1944? if so use that instead of another sherman without much difference to the m4a2
I doubt they still had the Pz. II in service during 1941, and with the political importance of the area, the first batch of T-34s would be present, no?
Pz II was still in service
Pz III was also still in service in 44 but balance wise this is way way off
I mean technically you could, but the ballistics on that thing are absolutely horrid.
It’s so much pain to aim that thing it’s gonna be impressive for any new player to hit anything. Even vets might have some minor trouble.
we are not sure about the BA-11.
only around 20 were built.
and according to the first year during operation barbarossa, informations are a bit scattered and those vehicles could have been used anywhere. so we can give the benefict of the doubt after all.
then it would be alot more balanced and something new compared to another sherman with the 75mm gun
We already have the M4A2 you want to add worse Sherman higher? Also the adding the firefly would be just like adding the jumbo but with less depression.
i say replace jumbo with a 105 sherman to give the allies good infantry support and keeping with theme of USA tanks being infantry support
?
it’s not. a worse sherman?
insthead of the current sherman, you don’t have to worry on where to shoot panzer 4s…
plus, puma can pen it unlike the jumbo.
and i have to remind you that m5 can pen pz IVs.
so it’s balanced.
I mean from what I can see in the american tank line up where the TD tho?
TD will likely be later since m10 will likely come with the panzerjager 4
Panthers first saw action at Kursk, in 1943.
All shermans with 75mm gun are worse than the the M4A2 and if you want to put one in the jumbo place… You put worse Sherman at higher rank.
The sherman firefly is possible but it would make the Pz 4 “out dated” it pens more, got better armor, faster reload time, .50 cal on the top, better side armor, crew and ammunition placed and safer places, cant be penned by .50 cal from behind…
And less armor lol the Jumbo has so much armor no Axis tank can currently pen it properly unless you achieve flanking outside the map for dday for example
Well instead of getting a lot of armor it gets gun that can pen every thing in the game like hot knife on butter
