The m36 hvap is intended for the heaviest armoured targets. The hvap pen however is indeed redicoulous. But so is twp on the pak40 wich also stuns the target. Its however not difficult or a hinderance since its a timed ability instead of a toggle. it will return to normal afterwards.
As far as I can remember the ability force a reload and requiring target for the M36 so unless one times the ability correctly one might end up increasing the time to kill target without high armour.
Unlike the sherman and isu, even being free i find them a hinderance. Not needing to switch is a better option. Wrong target shows up and you need to pull back to switch ammo. Same with td's if they get switchable rounds.
Hey thats a medium o shit a heavy as well, better switch to rounds with lower rof, but then the medium has become a bigger threat and i still need to move back even if i have multyple td's.
It not a hindrance it a way to balance the unit, ISU was given suitable rounds because it op using all around rounds and the Sherman would be completely OP if its AP rounds has the HE AOE.
And since axis can field mediums and heavies more easely at the same time this effects allies more.
That is simply untrue.
It puts more micro tax on the td,s.
There is no micro tax on TDs. They can shit back at range 60 and snipe medium tank from 20 range farther that they can shoot.
Allied stock mediums already have a higher micro tax.
Not really
And then the td's will have it as well. So it defenitly matters who is affected more.
No it does not as long as it remain balanced
You will have axis heavies like the tiger dealing with tanks and inf no problem.
And allies will have IS-2,KV-2,Comet,Perishing.
Allies need a td loaded with rounds for both types of tanks. Tanks and inf to deal with inf.
Panthers deal with medium and heavies alike, and now probably gain a buff vs td's if the swith to heavy tank ammo with lower rof. P4 still works vs mediums and inf and also gets a buff if the td is in anti heavy mode.
In short this will give axis armour way to much buffs across the board. While only stock mediums from both sides need it. Unless both panthers and the jagdpanzer get the same switchable rounds as well.
The suggestion is for unit that are meant to deal with super heavies so it includes the Panther, but you seem to be missing the point of the suggestions. The round will not work similar to AP/HE where the wrong round is completely ineffective vs the wrong target. It would simply be less effective.
As for the su76 it is bad because it comes go late for lv's and its okish only vs mediums, since it has to low pen and damage to be reliable esp vs okw. I dont see it getting more use. But i could be wrong ofcourse.
Su-85 is very good vs PzIV and as long as it remains so good there is going to be little reason to make the SU-76
I think working on target sizes and acc so that mediums are hit less often esp at long range is a better way and causes less unintended concequences.
The suggestion includes the chance to hit. Normal AP rounds would be more accurate with lower penetration while the High AP round would have lower accuracy and higher penetration.
The difference would simply could also include other factors likes ROF and damage. One could even test ROF that changes with distance.
