Unique tank battle...but why was it Firefly vs Panzer 4?

just a guess but lack of british tanks? we don't have the mathilda, churchill, centurion, centaur or cromwell...

IMO the M4(76) would have been a stretch, shouldn't of has Fireflys in that kind of setup, M4(75) defiantly.

That was my first assumption...not trying to whine here, it was fun for the 5 minutes I got to play, but that battle is already decided.

The 75mm is a bit worse than the Panzer 4, and the 76mm is a bit better than the Panzer 4...but don't solve the problem by giving them a Firefly...

Panthers would have been nice.

i had the firefly ride and was suprised to c it in black. we thought it was gonna be the 75 sherman but the firefly/panther sounds like a good match. hope they keep gv's in mind for future use.

GVs will be kept in mind for future setups by various admin CMs. Removing them from frame 3 is just a one time case and my decision.
