american replacements are boring to look at.
« on: November 30, 2011, 09:47:15 PM »
Hello
I think the Americans replacement units is to boring. it's just Shermans with a little extra bling.
something which in turn would be nice to see is.    ;D

Paradrop M22 Locust as a replacement for the airborne 57mm AT Gun.

and M12 Gun Motor Carrier as a replacement for Sherman calioupe.

Quite honestly who in their right mind would replace a Calliope for a Jumbo?

Not that we are replacing reward units just because a new season is coming or because now they are boring. Althought I don't like the Jumbo replacing the Calliope, I wouldn't add another cool unit as it's reward, would be better to leave it alone... I don't know where the jumbo would fit though :P.

He's not suggesting changing vCOH he's suggesting reward units. But IMO the American MHT just lacks luster compared to the Calliope or Jumbo.

Anyways the American army was noted for it bland and uniform G.I. appearance Germans found their tanks ugly and inefficient

And whats a Locust ???

I actually don't like the Jumbo because it replaces a unit that's too important and powerful. Nobody sane should pick the Jumbo over a Calli. The idea of the paradropped tanks is very interesting IMO and worth looking into.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

Locust tanks were deployed in gliders. I would be Tetratch's copy. Nothing exciting. Jumbo should be reward to Pershing tank - weaker gun, better armour. Maybe some hp and cost tweaks.

Aww really? I wanted to see some dumbo drop action with actual parachutes. Agreed with Pershing replacement.

I think this topic can be locked down. As these units are not going to be included there is no point on discussing this.
