Comparing the data of the two vehicles, the ELC 901 is completely weaker than ELC bis in terms of speed and armor, and the ELC bis has smoke and artillery support, which has more advantages than ELC 901. Based on the above, it would be reasonable to reduce the Combat Rating from 6.0 to 5.7. What do you think?
Let’s make a comparison of the main data of the two cars.
ELC bis : ELC 901
Speed: 80/35 > 60/7.7
Body Armor 40/15/15 > 15/8/8
Turret Armor 30/8/8 > 8/8/8
ELC bis plays the same way as AMX 13, so can it go to 7.0?
ELC bis plays the same way as DF105, and the shell performance is similar, so should it go to 8.0?
There is something wrong with your words. All the light tanks gonna play are the same.
Frontal defense is really important, but speed is more important. But I think the speed is more important, especially the reversing speed, one is 34KM/H, the other is 7.7 KM/H, the difference is not a little bit, not only the reversing data is much worse, but also the forward speed is 20 kilometers per hour.
One reason why I vastly prefer the 901 over the bis is the lack of antenna: Even a quite flat hill makes the 901 virtually invisible, hiding the bis is more difficult. Plop some fir brachnes on it and you’re a flat shrubbery that would make the Knights who say Ni! happy.
IIRC acceleration is also better in the 901, so as you by all means don’t want to be shot at at all in any of the two, being able to hide, pop up quickly and hide again is the strongest suite for the ELC 901.
