CAS can be good.
Strafe to control rifles
plenty of paks for the Easy8s (not as good AI as HE shermans)
plenty of munis for tellars
plenty of munis for mass LMGs to overpower rifles (made easier with strafe).
Later on, you can deal huge damage with the AT strafe vs infantry healing at HQ and or med truck, this can sometimes just end a game where you were doing reasonably well.
