1. Nah, soviets can chase snipers with their mega blobs. SU doesn't need motorbike.

+1

2. Maybe BA-10 as reward for T-70?

+1 to that and BA-64 for T-90 :P

3. No, no, no, no... T28 is sooo lame, three turrets? Why not five? But I agree that SU needs somethong to replace L-L Sherman. Maybe KV-85?

Other suggestions have been BT-7 and T-26

4. KV-2 FTW, I love it :D

My prefered candidate for this spot was T-28 (3 turr) or T-35 (5 turr)

5. SU-76 could do as replacement for L-L sherman.

Nah its too early for a Tank destroyer to be moving out L-L sherman is more anti vehicle. Considering SU-100 is being removed Su-76 as a reward for SU-85 is probs a better choice. Maybe being faster, cheaper and gaining a special ability (somewhat like a cross between a Marder and SU-85) instead of HP and excellent penetration etc.

These are just my opinions (ntm repeats from recent topics)

BA 64 - t90? no thx Ba 64 is a scout car with machine gun, Ba-6 have 20mm weapon

KV 85? no thx, is a heavy tank.

This seems to be an original.
he's right. the pic is a fake. the background and the soldiers are the same while the details on the tank are changed (hatch is closed, tracks on the side removed,...) and take a close look at the soldier standing at the right side of the faked pic (the helmet looks awfully strange).
Jagd[tiger] is a buildable replacement for the Kettenkrad... It can cloak and cap points. :P

LOL, I found this  :-X
OMG

keep dreaming

Well. This tank was real. This photo is a fake ;)
During the last months of WW2 some Landser had mounted a single 88 on a captured T-34 tank. It was an field improvisation
to make 88 more mobile.
1 - max. 2 88 were mounted on T-34. So they were an absolute curiosity on battlefield.
May the force be with you.

That for a T-90... Im thinking of a fast firing mobile armoured vehicle as a replacement for the T-90, oh and the BA-6 had a 45mm so if you meant as a reward unit for T-70 then maybs.

Why? There's already T-70 for that matter.

What? Im trying to make sense of what Hamasei meant because Ba-64 to T-90 make's more sense than BA-6 to T-90 so im just assuming he meant it as a replacement/reward for T-70

Nope, IS-4 wasn't used on WW2, IS-3 still has chances to be considerated.

Yeah this is true IS-4 never took part in WWII but atleast the IS-3 was around at the time even if it didnt see frequent use

The only reason i can see why it would receive negative feeling is because the axis players are reluctant to give up total armor superiority! :P

... I'm playing EF just because I can play Soviets :) but I find balance pretty important.
As far I'm fine with the fact that there's no tank that can beat KT in 1v1, and it should stay as it is. That's why this beast is total economy killer and true king of the battlefield. And every time I destroy it I feel damn good  :D

I understand your feeling comrade cephalos.

I agree that king tiger should be top dog since the Mp drain is so dramatic. but thats not a reason to downplay the fact that IS-3 was a superior tank to the king tiger in every regard. wouldnt you agree? its factual

However If the IS-3 were to be implemented as reward I would most certainly want the same Mp drain that king tiger comes with to effect soviet as well. It wouldnt be balanced to have it any other way. and it would also allow the mod to keep that same historic flavor it currently has
and not penalize the IS-3 to being downplayed as second fiddle to KT. because vcoh axis always had armor superiority
