Lend Lease Assault Regiment More Proper Setup

Jump back to quoted post27 Aug 2020, 01:12 AMthomasagray

The M10 TD is a lackluster unit, with its purpose just as easily done by the Firefly or AEC Armored Car. Surely, at least it needs to be replaced with a comparable unit or ability.

And despite all the time since then it's still an awful idea as it brings nothing at all to the faction except a slightly different cromwell. It doesn't allow alternative teching, it doesn't give more anything except overlap.

Then the logical alternative would be to allow the dozer upgrade for the M4A3 or add the 76mm Sherman instead. That being said I don't see how the M4A3 is the samething as the Cromwell. The M4A3 has the AP/HE shells, a .50 cal, seems like a much better tank.

Doctrinal units shouldn't be straight up better replacements. That's shitty design. The Sherman and cromwell are quite alike but the Sherman is frankly better because of the reasons you mentioned. This is OK being in another faction due to faction differences but slapping it in where it would straight up replace and make a core unit obsolete is undesirable.
There is no instance in the game where a doctrinal unit is a straight up by every metric better version of the core unit for the same price. All tanks either offer something different or a different cost/performance ratio. All infantry either fills a different role or if they fill a similar role they do so with trade offs. The Sherman would be a flat out better cromwell where now the m10 offers an alternative to what some call a Brit issue, a slow, expensive TD. it's not flashy but it's a GOOD design. A Sherman would not be.

IDK pfusies are kind of just an upgrade past the first couple engagements over volks.

It have to do more with in general bad OKW tech tree and volks being frontline inf without properly being one, against anything but cons.

Same way Fallshimjaegers or JLI is better then obersts, not because of their perfomance, but because Obests are just arrive too late to make an bigger impact which Fallsh or JLI can do.

I mean sure but the point I was making still stands. Pfusies are a straight upgrade over volks in every way except certain types of utility.

Pf are upgrade because of how volks are presented in the meta. If snare was awaible after track arrival, if over-all damage and scaling was better for volks and their match up vs other mainline inf, it would have been debatable.

But as it is right now, yes. Because PF provide you with snares, better upgradable weapons and better scaling.

Thats is the point, if balance is working correctly then call-ins should be an optional, debatable chose which gives you more ways to play with the faction, when core units or faction is not working properly, then we have meta\no-brainer\pick-or-lose commanders and call-ins. Either that or its elite armor on release.
