 - I feel Sherman Jumbo should be a reward unit for
 Crocodile. Ought to have a cap of 1, and have heavy
 Crush. It was more plentiful than the Pershing.
 - Sherman Crocodile should have it's 75mm back :D
 (But be more expensive, and have cap of 1 or 2)
 * If Sherman 105mm is WAY more powerful than Sherman
 Crocodile, then this would help rebalance things. They'd
 need an up-cost, though.
 * Sherman 105mm doesn't need a shovel. It's a StuH42
 for crissakes :) Just blast dragon's teeth away!
 * Sherman 105 should still be a reward unit for Callioppe.
You know, there are many people in the country today who, through no fault of their own, are sane. Some of them were born sane. Some of them became sane later in their lives. It is up to people like you and me who are out of our tiny little minds to try and help these people overcome their sanity

Wow,there's an awful lot of awesome models there. Any chance that some of these units might be included as reward units or in the OH? That Grille for example could be a great Hummel replacement.

Sherman 105mm - Already on EF, but don't know if it's the same we have.
Sherman "Jumbo" - Same than Sherman 105.
M36 - Already on EF, but AFAIK just as a temporary replacement of M10 that already has a reward unit.
Wespe - Not used.
Henschel KT - Already discussed, besides the Tiger Ace will be the reward of KT.
M5 ATG - Not used.

I dont want new units, just replace the existing jumbo from loran with Halftrack's one. I think, that the 105 is already from Halftrack...

Oh sorry, I meant Wespe not Grille. Do you mean you will remove the M36 again? That'd be sad, more variety is always welcome(if properly executed).
As to the Suggestion of replacing the 105 Sherman with the Jumbo, why'd anyone pick the Jumbo over the Croc or 105? The Croc is dedicated AI and so is the 105, why have another allround Sherman beside the normal Sherman? (though I will say I don't think anyone will pick the Jumbo over the Calliope either)

i was thinking the same thing  ;)
i guess it would fit. maybe bigger range or damage or piercing and less armor. something like that...
Jagd[tiger] is a buildable replacement for the Kettenkrad... It can cloak and cap points. :P

You guys figured out how to do a 2nd reward? damn great news, if so. Henschel KT is a really beatiful monster. Would also make more ppl stick with the KT. great idea imo.

Hell yea, i will love the comback of the ace..

In it's current form? Then I guess it'd have to be much cheaper than the Pershing and you would have to be able to call in 2 of them? Maybe if it had around Sherman health, the option to upgrade with .50 cal and Panther or Firefly range +sufficient speed then I'd see how to justify the Pershing price tag +and only 1 time call in.

I mean, this was already discussed an was the answer was no, because will be the same unit without balance changes. Besides, there's no need for making the Henschel KT a reward unit for the Porshe KT because it will be the Tiger Ace.

Not in their current form, because by now is intended to fill the role of the wolverine.

What about a reward unit representing either the Asian American 442nd Infantry Regiment or some of the African American Units that fought inn Europe during World War II(Maybe as reward factions). They have not been featured(or even mentioned) in most of the World War II games I have played.(I think there was a level in a CoD Game I played on the PS2 when your playing as a tank crew in a African American Tank Division)

I would also suggest a squad of US Marines as a replacement for the rangers; but they didn't fight in Europe. (Although they probably would have been deployed if the war lasted longer in Europe than it did in the Pacific;but that is just me being theoretical and plus they haven't been featured in any released mods so far.)

The CoD game you are talking about is CoD:Finest Hour, my personal favorite one. You get to play as a African American Tank CO.

Anyway the Marines won't be in, because as you said, THEY DIDN'T SERVE IN EUROPE, so not a possibility.

Anyway i was thinking about Airborne Assualt squads,something like:

Airborne Assault squad- A 4 man squad armed with M1928 Thompson SMGs, that is para-dropped into visible territory, they come with Satchel Charges, Fired Up, and can use Mk2 Grenades (w/ upgrade of course), and gets an upgrade for the Cutts Compensator, increasing accuracy or a drum magazine for extra rounds

The idea is to have an Assault squad instead of a AT squad (at least that is how i see the regular Airborne).
