God, not a Sherman!  Sorry, muzzle velocity way too slow, and the armor was not all that great...

How about the T-34 or, naturally, a Tiger tank.
And, I cannot imagine a GV that would need to be perked..

Please advise!

HT did mention that they're working on a GV so hopefully it'll be a tank.  I wouldn't mind a Sherman, T34 or a Pnzr V :)

That picture looks like either one of the long 75mm variants or a Sherman Firefly with the British 17pdr anti-tank gun.

T34-85 would be good, but had no AA MG in WW2, this might be a problem in AH.

Any M4 75mm would be best for overall usage in both MA and scenarions.

The 76mm Shermans only appered in limited numbers by June 1944. IIRC only 200 were available in June 1944.  75mm Shermans were in use from fall 1942.

So a 75mm Sherman would be best.

Thats my vote, and very compatible with our current Mark IV, correct?

We need something that will be USED, not sit in the hangar...the Panzer we have now would eat up a Sherman.

How about the Shermans from the movie, "Kelly's Heroes" that had the turret attachment that made it look like a 90MM?

Also be sure, HTC, that you model the "paint armament" option, the record player :)
