I'm wondering that since the last patch that the Jackson was replaced with the wolverine. and also seen post that the Jackson should be a reward unit for the Sherman. i support the idea to make the Jackson a reward unit, but i think except the Sherman it should be the Pershing. Maybe I'm wrong but i suggest that the Jackson reward unit is like the Jagdtiger reward unit except unlike the Pershing it builds 3 except of one. I may be wrong here but the Jackson has a 90mm gun but since it is a tank destroyer it has less armor than the Pershing which makes it perfect as a reward unit. i hope this helps and I'd be delighted to see comments if it needs more adjustments. Thank You!  ;D

That's what I hate about the RMC what did they deserve to get the 90mm TD  >:( sorry if I appear grumpy.

Well Um being a more offensive faction the need a mobile and TD similar but stronger than the Firefly (albeit available at slightly different time and allows for different tactics than the Firefly).

Anyway we don't need the M36. As nice as it is, it wouldn't be quite as awesome as the Pershing, nor does it really fit to takes its place. Sure its faster, but the lack of armor makes it just fodder for the KTs and even regular Tigers and Panthers. Also the Pershing is like Americas super Panther, meaning it can go through a few Panzerschrecks while the M36 is no better than the the M16 (actually i believe it had less armor than that) and just needs 3 or so to finish it. Really no good it my eyes. I would actually make it the replacement for the M10 but since that slot is already occupied i wouldn't bother

I guess you're right, it wouldn't be worth the switch but why the RMC

The RMC have the M10 Achillies which had the British 17pdr installed, not the M36 with the 90mm.

We've already given 2 additional reward units to the US which bring them to a total of 4 for the faction including the ToV ones.
 
They won't get any more, forget the M36. Each faction will only ever get 4 reward units in total
