ISU takes 3-4 hits to kill a Pz.IV

Ferdi two hits Su-85s

Its underperforming against armour, not against infantry. Point clear?

Why should the ISU be super powerful against both infantry and armor? The difference in power between the elephant's AI potential and the ISU's AI is much higher than the difference between their AT potential. You really shouldn't be trying to fight off tanks with the ISU just like you wouldn't fight infantry with the elephant. This doesn't mean that the units are too weak.

Exactly, thats why a Su-100/122P is needed. If not, the ISU should be powerful against both infantry and AT, as there currently is nothing that can really challenge the late game axis super heavies. You can bring them them down if your opponent is stupid and waste them, but most of the time the it is game over when a JT enters the battlefield. A King Tiger is manageable but if you've not chosen a commander with an ISU your pretty much screwed either way.

I voted SU-100; I'm really surprised it isn't in the game already. I wish that it was an upgrade for the SU-85 at the tank building. I'd also love to see Soviet marines and the BA-64.

The KV-2 being in more than one doctrine (that sucks now anyway) would also be pretty nice.
