LIGHT ARMOR RUMBLE! SD2 Monthly on Haroshaje- Steel Division 2 

I countered pick the income. VfV is good against van because the additional income of van is not enough to kill you. As you said, it is like mav vs bal but better. "Not sure what the purpose of the beute stalin is" you missed the kill on the jumbo 😢

Happy to see good old casts again

The “W” in M4(75)W stands for “wet ammo storage” which reduces ammo cook off IRL, but it doesn’t affect armor and the better armor value is probably because of the welded hull. Someone needs to check the crit rate on it to know if it does anything in game tho.

Recon planes nice side effect is draining 50 cal ammo from all these halftrucks and tanks.

15:20 - "Below every other income... Except Juggernaut." You know... I could have sworn there was another Income that had a *very* poor B-Phase income... Oh, what was it again? Edit: Also, gotta admire the spine on Memile. "It is the second half of B-Phase. I am playing V-for-Victory against Vanguard. Time for the offensive!"

nooo you missed the dead jumbo to he beaute stalin D: atleast we got to see the dead carcass but great cast as always

The Primary difference between the M4A3 sherman and the other variants is its engine and the fact that the wider tracks with HVSS suspension was standard on this model. it used a Ford V8 engine rather than the Radial aircraft engines or multibank engines of other variants so it was more reliable and in some cases faster. the wider tracks and improved suspension in real life offered higher off road mobility, reduced the chances of getting stuck in mud and offered a smoother ride improving the accuracy of the gun allowing for an even higher hit probability on the move. hit probability is a bit different than accuracy as a statistic but the M4A3 was achieving around a 70% hit probability while moving around 15 miles per hour off road. (fun fact the US was the only nation in WW2 using a gun stabilizer and this tech would not become commonplace in tanks for other nations until the 1960s)

As someone who is still learning the game, some of my most difficult games against the AI have been 3rd Armor vs 20th Panzer.

Damn that was great game to watch! Nice plays by both players. Although I also don't understand why German player kept sending tanks to forests against division where everyone and their mother gets a Bazooka

12:39 and onwards: As if you were not responsible for sending them into suicide missions! All the time! Ha!

The main difference of the M4A3 to Shermans before it was the engine, a Ford V-8 gasoline engine, so it was the most speedy and mobile version of the Sherman - not sure if thats somehow translated into the game itself ?

What do you use to make your Thumbnails?

Welcome cast again sir atk

Most don't realize it, but cheap recon planes are a must against 50cal spam divisions.

M4A3 is the same as the other 80 point Shermans. Most of the American divisions are stuck with the M4A1s as thats what they trained on. The Armored Divs get the later variants.

20th Panzer has a big advantage - they have a better slot nunbers with only the recon fairly bad for slot numbers 1, 2, 3 or 4. Germans generally have better win chances as Shermans do not trade favourably with MK IV and Stugs

Vanguard just seems like the worst aggressive income, you can win in A phase as any income, the extra points don't do very much. Like, just pick maverick.

At 33:36 you can see the Wurfrahmen got the kill of the second Jumbo. 🙂

good game kinda feel like the RNJesus boned Koenig though

.50 cal AA effect needs to be nerfed because it is giving free anti-air capacity to most allied divisions that cannot be countered except by directly engaging the half tracks or light vehicles with AT. At 5:58 the reconnaissance plan is being forced off by two .50 cals. Other than during a dive, would any plane in the game fly low enough to be hit by a 50 cal? Recon planes are a key unit for Axis armored divisions to function and many of them are now practically unusable.
