Didn't quite fit with the calliope. Everyone wants rockets, not slow shermans.

I know JUMBO was reward of the CALLIOPE, just said it was removed because it wasn't as good as the latter. Also I said the only way to add it was as reward of the PERSHING, but we weren't sure than that was a good idea.

Because some people believe that they are entitled to bark out orders, just because its them, and they are the royal garbage of their own little world.

Some others believe uniformity is key to success, and I can't agree with that.

Either way, it isn't going to be put back in. Honestly the only reward unit for an Artillery tank is another Artillery tank, so either a Sexton or Priest or something of the sort. But then we wold have to make therm shoot damn fast to take place of the Calliope.... So NO!!

Sure. Jumbo definitely belonged in the spot of the Calliope which is a piece of artillery and the best unit of one of the Americans, contested only by 105MMs. You're definitely right.

Good luck VS PaKs, Shrecks, and 88s which you can no longer barrage.

It's like trying to replace the OBR with a reward unit KV-85 :D

i think the option to get the jumbo would be nice, but definatly not to replace the calliope O.O

maybe as a optional replacment for the m10 or something but if you have it it takes an awfully long time to get like the IS-2
