I would like to see it. I was thinking it would make a good medium tank, that could take out the half tracks, scout car, and wirb, and ost.

Did the Firefly have the gyro stabilizer like the normal M4?  If so, shouldn't AH turn off the bounce for the Firefly so it can fire accurately while moving?
I don't think it did.  As I recall they couldn't fit it in the turret with the larger gun or some such.

Why not have it? All that say we dont need it...DONT USE IT.  I'm sure HTC could easily add a non perked M4

Agreed 5.0, I think people need to stop griping about easy additions. Take the T34's gun, and the Panzers armor and put them on the firefly's body.

+1  I would gladly die in a regular Sherman too (I already get killed regularly in the Tiger, Firefly, Panzer, & T-34's  :lol)

Eh, generally when they add AH2 Tanks, they either add a completely different tank or they upgrade a current tank.  Adding the regular M4 would kinda be a downgrade, considering the only real difference from the Firefly is a weaker gun.  Plus the Sherman had a tendency to be destroyed or catch fire easily.  I'm not saying I'd hate it if the M4 was put in, but generally they only put in a few new things at a time, and preferably I'd rather see a Panther or JS-2 tank instead.

But it would be a welcome addition to the Mid War Arena as the Firefly wasn't introduced until mid '44.

OK, so most agree it would be more fun to die in a sherman than a panzer. When we get it, we should be able to lead a full platoon of tanks due to the swarms of shermans that were produced.

hey the tigers caught fire easily too but AH isnt too realistic it seems my tigers the only 1 that catches fire from a single shot from a panzer 32 out on the scope
