doesnt easy maintanance reduce -10% production cost as well?

[hammotimee]

🔥 Fun fact, the flamethrower has the same IC as the heavy MG, so you can also make this a flame tank and it's actually useful 😆

The el cheapo tank is hands down the best garrison unit in the game for small nations doing a world conquest since it has the lowest manpower need but the highest suppression value. Build one factory of these bad boys as Finland at the start of the game and the soviet union is as good as yours.

Just checked the IC of Infantry Equipment, you can produce 4 infantry equipment 1 per 1 of these tanks, that's like 4 bolt action rifle per tank lol

Italy has -15 production cost on light tanks guys!

[justinsimons]

When conversion cost is higher than production cost 💀

I think it's good, you can add a tank battalion with only this tank template to every of your division templates to make some trashy stormtroopers.

This tank has the armor of god's mercy

I'm pretty sure I actually used this tank whilst playing as aussa but with slightly better stuff (interleaving suspension and sloped armour) it was actually ok

[JHohenhauser]

Sounds like an armored car with extra steps.

With easy maintenance you can get it to 1.9

What is the most expensive tank we can make?

[Ichika_Sakura]

The best cheap tank u can make and will be useful is flame tank, make it cheapest and jst fill in your division, it adds alot of attack.

[sandercohen]

Well, you can just produce a bunch of these pre-war, then upgrade them with better modules for a net gain in production spent

[KBLS]

now everyone got there own tank to fight

I always wanted to try a mass assault run with these bad boys in the infantry division. The idea would be to make a division that is as IC efficient as possible- which is mostly dependent on two things, winning your combats and resisting strength losses. Having high HP helps with the second, but I'm wondering whether having some hardness, breakthrough, and extra damage from the tanks would even it out in the end.

Oh, and of course you'd want to make these 44 widths to chunkify your hp (and therefore strength) as well as going mass assault left so you can cram even more battalions in (to chunkify hp stats further).

[Zandonus]

I feel like there was such a thing IRL.

[alextonev]

Wow what if you just make tanks instead of infantry I wonder how much better/worse the stats would be xD
