I hope this is the right thread. IS-3 the historical balance Problems Dont worry is not going to be a whine post about a postwar tank The advantages of the Is3 is his brutal frontal armor in combination with this speed, so it outclasses the ISU AND every wehrmachttank. On town maps, for example, you just cant relay on paks and here strats the problem. The speed of IS3 makes it nearly impossibel to get on the back of it. This wouldnt be a problem if the sidearmor would be sidearmor, but in COH sidearomor is 50% chance for frontarmor and a 50%chance for backarmor, if I am rgth, am I? So there are two things the shell be changed -> slow the tower turning ratio down, just a littel bit -> if it is a littel bit slower, a flanking tank/squads or whatever wouldnt be killed so fast and decrease its sidearmor, dont know if its possible, but my idea would be; increase the backarmor and make sidearmor 100% backarmor This changes wouldnt effect it so much against PE Or just give me a Just kidding
and what should be the reason?
Lets be honest. Almost everyone goes BT. Not always but for the most part yes. IS3>KT more often than not. IS3>Tiger so blitz becomes alot less powerful, especially with the SU-85 which rips apart StuHs and does surprisingly well vs infantry. IS3 can soak up a relatively good number of 88 shots and still keep ticking. Not to mention you get Airstrikes which do multiple runs with strafes AND bombing runs. And mechanics and T-34 riders which only add to this. Its like if u have no idea what to do BT always works out.
IL-2 has been changed again to something quite spectacular. Maybe we can post a video of this. It fixes the issue of the rocket run not really hitting targets and often not even firing off.
I don't always go BT at all. I go LHS prop more often than not. However, IS-3 is usually a solid thing to fall back on if I don't need any doctrinal things and just get it as a bonus.
