Kevin E. Duguay -> Useless units. (3/3/2004 5:38:02 PM)

Has anybody noticed some of the goofy units in this game? Im speaking of vehicles of the Early War period and some of the vehicles that were only used for trainning. They take up precious slots that could be used for other vehicles/units that were more common. The specific ones Im speaking of are in the Anzac and US OOB's.
Anzac; The Sentinel tank series, Sentinal I, 60+ built, this could be kept as a "what if" vehicle and was the only vehicle of the series to be built in any quantity. They were used only for training.
The most silly vehicle of the series that is in the game is the Sentinel Twin. Neet vehicle, but it was only a "test bed" to see if the suspention and other components of this tank could stand up to the recoil of the 17 pounder. You see two 25 pounder guns, when fired at once, had just 20% more recoil than the 17 pounder.
All the rest of the series were built in one's and two's including the 17 pounder version which was only built after the war was over because of the shortage of 17 pounder guns, and then again only one or two were built.
US OOB; The FT-17's in the U.S. arsenal were never intended for and would never in any any situation you can think of, be used in combat. They were quite beat up by the early 30's and could barly be relied upon for training exersises. The Mae West, and Combat Car are also questionable items but they are so cute that I would hate to see them go.[;)]
Any how, I'm not trying to start a firestorm, just looking for others thoughts on this matter.[:)]
