I'd just like to say that I think Digital Mind Soft is being friggin moronic by not letting you use their model.

Personally I think redoing the IS-3 would make more sense than having two IS-2 variants. The latter would probably be rather confusing to most players and there isn't such a large difference between the two variants.

30sec reload... this means that the unit will be useless.
ATM you just need to try ISU ;) It penatrates with every shot , somithing that I doubt SU100 can... even IS3.
However its side and rear armors are its very weak spots and its manuverabiloty is not good , so it easy can be destroyed leaved unsupported on the frontline.

I was exaggerating, coh is not a simulation and combat ranges are laughable, so, obviously, no need to introduce realistic firing rates. But some sort of price and firing rate advantage for the replacement unit might justify the swap option.

There is nothing new and this issue has a very low priority compared to other things we need to solve ;).

No, it won't be put back. At least not now.

I seriously regret patching my game now. Seeing the IS-3 with that boob-shaped turret was so sexy. :'(
