Normandy’s Jumbo Sherman tank is a tank that causes great pain to the United States and Germany. For Germany, if they suffer from strong Jumbo Sherman’s gloves, Jumbo Sherman’s main gun is weak, so the U.S. cannot deal with the Panther tank.
Therefore, we request to replace the Jumbo Sherman tank with M4A1 (76)w Sherman. If replaced by the M4A1 (76)w, the U.S. will have an additional 76mm canon to respond to the Panther tank, and Germany will no longer have to deal with Jumbo’s strong gloves, so both Germany and the U.S. are expected to be satisfied.

Actually I do not think such a “big change” like this will ever happen.
With “big change” I mean replacing a tank or vehicle with another.
Nethertheless I think your idea is pretty good.
Not that I really care, because Faust and explosives don’t care if its a (76)w Sherman or a Jumbo shrugs (same with any other tank)

Thank you for thinking positively. Even if you don’t change it right away, I hope the developers think positively.

Does it mean that you want to kill a tank without a roof easily?
i want most of the crew stay alive not taking turns getting killed.

When you kill the commander in an m8/10 ten commander get automatically replaced and killed again
I understand. I think the exposure of the commander is a big problem. Both M10 and M8HMC have this problem. I also want this part to be fixed.
I understand what you mean. I also think this is a big problem.
from the beginning, adding the jumbo was just pure nonsense, they could have easily gone for Panzer IV H vs Sherman 76, and later something like panther or Jagdpanzer IV/L70 vs Jackson or Firefly.
But hell no, they wanted to have this aids gameplay where “everyone struggles big time to kill each other”.
Just imagine we would copy that gameplay into infantry combat, it would be the equivalent of “only headshots deal dmg and everyone gets a boltaction”. Who would want to play that mess?

simply just by switching M10 and jumbo place, it’ll fine that way

That’s not enough. Even if the jumbo disappears, we need an appropriate tank to fight the panther.
That’s right. It was better not to add jumbo from the beginning.

if u gave it the 76 mm cannon on the jumbo it wouldnt be so bad
The M8 and M10 were both open top vehicles.
Alternate history no thx.
Maybe instead of having redundant AT vehicles they could just keep the M10 and add an even heavier AT platform.
Or maybe they could stop adding more and more powerful vehicles to stop powercreep.
No, I understand that they were open-top vehicles. My problem is the fact that the commander has no way to duck to stick out less or just let the commander die and not have the fourth tanker stand in his place, dieing like a second after leaving you with effectively 2 tankers.
