The varity of british tanks is pretty cool.. maybe we will get a reward unit for the firefly for example or one of the churchill call-in tanks.

The Firefly will indeed have a reward unit, it will be the Comet tank

OHH!!!!! i like the idea of the reward unit as the comet.

@Paciat the number of archers produced were only 400 hence they cant be included as a standard tank but the achilles was produced in large numbers hence it can qualify as a tank which can be produced from the armor hq!!!!!!!!!

BTW I was wondering "how old are the developers of the COHEF"????

Ummm... no.

They're not a corporation, if you've some skills and want to help out I'm sure they'd be happy to let you. Most of them probably just dev as a hobby.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

Who said that?
Doesnt sound like a good idea for me, because the Comet isnt a firefly replacement - it just has more armour.

I saw it in a broadcast the developers made where they explained all the avaible reward units so far

Comet.
Jagdtiger
Sherman jumbo
Shmerman 105
Pak36
Jagdpanzer IV

I think its pretty nice so far, maybe the next british reward unit would be the sexton that could replace the m7 preist?

M4(105)
M4A3E2 "Jumbo"

So a Sherman jumbo is just a sherman with a larger barrel?
I think, therefore I am...
I learn, therefore I advance...
I destroy, that I may endure.

Sherman M49105mm) has 105 mm howitzer than 75mm cannon.
Sherman Jumbo is heavily armoured version of casual sherman, armed with ordinary 75mm cannon. It's not designated astank killer but as assault tank,when getting on small range and destoying, let's say bunker is needed.
