Well T70's can beat StuG's better by circling them than T90 I think. They're like Stuarts. And I've never tried it but T70's might be able to circle Marders

So in future I can expect the T90 to become more like a quad .50 with the armour of a Stuart light tank, but for now that's not the case. For now, they both sound good the way you describe them.

Didn't know about the stealth detection radius thing... how wide is the radius for the T70 and the Command Squad? Does it spot units within full LoS, only those right next to it, or some variant between the two?

maybe a way to even out the t90 is to give it the stats of an american mg team, with damage modifiers and maybe even armour piercing rounds ability
Its a beautiful day to kill, dont you think so??

thats where damage modifier come in, and you can modify the suppression rate, t90 is supposed to be anti infantry tank, if your running infantry at it (unless you have shrecks) and expecting to win, your doing something wrong

If your going to modify the .30cal dmg to set it as T90 dmg you might as well give the T90 its own dmg set :-\. No need for redundancy :P

Does the T70 fire fast? To me, I see it as a better M8. Now that I know T90 can kill unupgraded Puma, I think T70 lost its purpose as an "M8." But it's my favorite stug counter.

i think t70 fire faster than m8 yes and i think its better than m8 (even than t17/staghound)... t70 is the ulimate conter for all PE t1-t4 units till to the late game (especially in groups)... how its looking with (upgraded) puma i am not pretty sure since i dont build t70/90 vs wehr... t70 can also used perfectly as a armored recon unit^^ a perfect allrounder i would say :)

T90 isn't supposed to do that much dmg to the Puma if I recall. So dont get used to it mowing down everything :P. Use T70 as an M8 and get used to it b4 it changes :)

T90> ACs, Pumas.

Stugs, ATG, ATHT,> T90

Is T90 anti aircraft or infantry support tank? And why exactly would the T70 be better than the T90? It seems like T90 is better. I'm still not convinced T70 has a use.

T90 is better at engaging Infantry and can also engage Aircraft to a certain degree. T90 can also fight light vehicles such as Pumas, and normally will win against them.

T70s are much like M8s, only with a bit more armor. It can easily take on lighter armors like the Pumas and can counter ATHTs which the T90 is not good against. The T70 also has a much better faring chance against a Stug.

I used 2 T70s and 2 SU85s to kill Rizz's Panther Battegroup and support units by using good micro. T70s do very suprising damage to the rear of tanks.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

This has no measure upon balance or actual stats. That is simply a matter of micro.
