...and an open turret that would make them easy meat for strafing planes. I like it.

We are going to need some evidence to give credence to your claim.

Well, if that is the case, the odds are it was a field mod and last I heard...AH doesn't support field mods.

Much as I love the M18 and am beating the drum to get it put in Darkest Hour, it is a poor match for Aces High.
Its only defense is speed and low profile, AH lacks the terrain undulations that make a vehicle like this credible, with the wide open spaces of AH with nearly no terrain hull downs, this thing would be meat.
Even without its vulnerability to aircraft, this thing would just provide meat for T34 76s to kill.

But it is a very cool vehicle.

     I have seen a picture of an M-36 with overhead cover, but I believe it was postwar.
It's at an armor museum somewhere...possibly Fort Knox?

sorry was thinking about the M10 (they seem similar to me)

The M10 seems similar because it was. Same concept on an M4 chassis. Yes...they were open turret also.

[Ruler2]

people use the open turret excuse,but it dosen;t hold water,ever heard of the M-8? we have it, it's open top too

This gv should be in for1, Heavy Metal Sunday, FSO and other special events could really benifet.

Also in the MA, don't you get anoyed with spawn camps (you being the guys spawning)?
Well, you could use the shoot 'n scoot strategy, thoe t-34's could be a problem. You could get behind a Tiger, take a shot and run along to the next guy. That 76mm is a pretty big stick, and at 55mph it can be a deadly combination. With the right strategy atleast. Standing behind cover is not the best way to go, bucause of poor armor, one shot and your dead. Needs a knolegd driver.
