Sherman II at 3.7 while M4A1 at 3.3

I mean, it should be a bit lower but its by no means bad, I got my highest kill game with it (15 kills with that vehicle alone, 23 in total), and that was an uptier, so its definitely workable and not bad, but yeah no thats just gaijins way of balancing

11

I get it, but it doesn’t matter if that’s being used as an excuse for why it’s there (it’s not, no excuse is given); they should be at the same BR.

12

Yeah, it’s a M4A1, so it’s a great tank, even a br bracket higher. Nevertheless, for parity, it needs to be moved down.

13

Yeah, I did call it ahistorical in my post.

As far as I can see, this is only on the roof of the hull and is pretty negligible. It doesn’t protect any more against something like the Yak-9K for example (curse that cancer) and the turret roof is identical. The T-34E STZ has a lot more frontal armour than the 1941 and 1942 while being identical in all other aspects yet remains at the same BR.

I think it’s really funny that it is at the exact same br as the Sherman 1 Composite despite that thing literally being the best Sherman for BR (Better armour than M4A2) at 3.7

16

Honestly it boggles my mind. How do they do BR changes like increasing the BR of the AEC AA (which I very rarely see, and when I see it, it doesn’t do well), but leave the Sherman II sitting at 3.7 for years? What lens are they looking at Britain through?

Also Sadly the Fr#nch

I’ve said it heaps of times, I’ll say it again here. Just get rid of T45 and drop it to 3.3 with the rest of the M4A1’s. Then finally give us the missing Sherman V (M4A4) which the French and Chinese trees have at 3.7.

If, there only was a way to make Gaijin listen to us.

Maybe a suggestion, would help.
Seems to be the only way that things get changed.

23

There is a suggestion for the Sherman V

24

Yeah but still makes no sense for the Sherman II to have T45 APCR.

Made a suggestion but it was immediately shut down because apparently we just have to like whatever the devs are doing.

Exactly, this is what needs to be done.

26

We have to be realistic, this thing about realism is something that was said at the beginning of the game’s beta, and in the end it turned out to be a huge lie. The penetrations are fake, the damage is fake, the armor of certain vehicles is fake, and even the minion weapons they carried are fake, and it’s all to make their own stupid balancing, since the developers don’t have the slightest imagination to be able to put models from similar eras and that have, to a greater or lesser extent, similar features.

I just love everybody got a M4A4 … except the nation that used it the most.

Report for correcting Sherman 75 mm ammunition in British service. T45 is not mentioned at all in the 1945 Sherman 75 mm armament pamphlet, and should be removed from the Sherman II.

Service ammunition includes;

  1. Shot, APC M61 (with and without bursting charge)
  2. Shell, HE M48 (Super, Normal, or reduced)
  3. Shell, smoke emission, Mk II or V
  4. Shell, Smoke M89

Training ammunition;

  1. Shot, AP M72
  2. Shot, SAP Mk II, III, IV, V, and VI
  3. Shell, HE Mk I

In some cases the British even gave them those Sherman’s.
