M4 Sherman is Underpowered in Men of War: Assault Squad 2

[schNEO]

That's it. I'm sick of all this "Glorious German Tanker Master Race" ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥t that's going on in the steam page right now. Humble Shermans and their brave tankers deserve much better than that. Much, much better than that.

I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine M4 Sherman in United States for $2,400,000 (that's about 67,300 pounds) and have been practicing with it for almost 2 years now. I can even sealclub 40 games against German players in a row with only Sherman tanks.

American free laborers spend less than an hour working on a single Sherman tank and don't even need to refine it because it is the finest tank known to entire galaxy.

Sherman are thrice as numerous as Panzer IVs and thrice as reliable for that matter too. Anytime a Sherman breaks down it can be repaired in 10 minutes flat, a Panther tank under the same situation have no choice but to end up scrapped in 1 month. I'm pretty sure an American general could easily use Shermans to overrun whole Asia with a simple plain strategy.

Ever wonder why Nazi German never bothered fighting Western Allies? That's right, they were too scared to fight the brave American tankers and their Shermans of galactic conquest. Even in Korean War, Communist tankers targeted the Shermans first because their outnumbering power was feared and respected.

So what am I saying? M4 Shermans are simply the best tanks that the world has ever seen, and thus, require better stats in the next patch of MoW: AS2. Here is the stat block I propose for M4 Sherman and all its variations:

(M4A3 & M4A4) 100 MP, 5 CP (crew only, ofc), 50% less repair time, 50% less casualties from a penetrating hit.

(M4A3E8 & Firefly) 150 & 175 MP, 5 CP (crew only, ofc), 50% less repair time, 50% less casualties from a penetrating hit, 150 & 170 meters range, 140 & 180 penetration with AP, 195 & 230 penetration with APCR.

(Jumbo & Jumbo 76) 300 & 350 MP, 7 CP, Jumbo 76 has same pen and range as M4A3E8 above.

Now that seems a lot more representative of the strategical power of M4 Shermans in real life, don't you think?

tl;dr = Sherman need to do better job in Men of War: AS2, see my new stat block.

you want a normal sherman to cost 100MP? you want a jumbo to cost 300-350MP?

Then you really might love my Super Shermy: 120mm Rheinmetall, MG 42 hull and coax and on top of that a .50 cal 2400 rpm Gatling.
Not to mention reduced fuel consumption even at full speed, increased fuel capacity and top speed at 55 mph.
Order now: 1-800-SUPERSHERMY!

You serious ?

yes, sure, they preferred fighting in the East against T34/85, IS1 and IS 2. These were kindergartentanks in comparison to the galactic Sherman...

Well, I prefer riding in a Panther, even in a PzIV G or H or a Hetzer than in ANY M4. There is no "best tank", there is always a good or best tank for a certain role. The M4 was mainly an infantry tank, for this it was good, but not "best".

$2,400,000 (that's about 67,300 pounds)

What pounds? British? Man, you seriously need to get at least one leg back into reality!

Is this like the American version of a wehraboo?

yeah pretty much.

[A.D]

you ever tried other tanks like pershing or some tank destroyers?
blame the original sherman designer who created it so weak.

I like this bait.
Especially considering that it's rather old copypasta and there are still so many people falling for it.
