I just hope in the next patch we see the M4A3 replace most of the M4A1's.
Why?  The M4A1 was by far the most common varient in Normandy with the US.
Hmmm now that I really look into it, you are quite correct good sir, I concede the field to you :)

This man speaks the truth, rarely a day I find myself staying on a server to play that map anymore.
Michael Wittmann's gunner, Bobby Woll, was known to be an excellent Marksman.
He could hit targets at range even on the move.

 Great update and a hearty Welcome to the team Remick,

 With the growth in COOP and SP players lately, your addition will certainly help broaden the playerbase and experiences of FH2 (now to get that guy Drawde officially involved somehow  ;))

 Nice looking models, the Halftrack, AA trailer and Stug will all be one hell of a lot of fun to play with. I must say that Toddel's eye for detail is almost too much for me to handle (the concrete on the Stug mantle looks damn near real to life).

 On another point, why in god's name would  we have Juno beach named statics in the changelog, if they were never to be seen in game?? I think Lobo is hiding from us for a reason and said reason is the mother of all beach landing maps (which IMO will keep FH2 servers singlehandedly populated until the 2020's).
My Quebec includes Canada

PHL hate? I freaking love that map, amazing for infantry. Just play it right!

Please don't give Drawde any ideas.

@those demanding dday,
Umm, shut up. We jus got an update in the same group as the lafette ie an answered wish. How about we just savor this, hmm? Go on to suggestions, dig-up any of the many dday maps and plough away... But let's keep this thread minty fresh.

The M4A3 is in the current version? Haven't seen it a single time, in which map is it?

It was shown in a news update but not put into 2.26.

Looks like the quad-gun can be lowered to ground level without something blocking your view then.
just as they did IRL. They where used alot vs infantery and APCS

Purple Heart Lane is the epitome of flanking and sneaking around imo.

It's landing. I don't mind dying in a massive landing, but getting sniped from bushes everywhere isn't fun.

Was the stug IV pretty much equal in performance to the stug III?
Did it have better armour or a bigger gun?
Pretty equal in performance, though it could carry a few more rounds for the main gun than the StuG 40 iirc.
And it doesn't have the remote MG of the late model StuG III G.
wich not all Ausf G"s had. they where uncommon

But its ok. This StuG looks awesome. Its camoflage paint is also very intresting. What is it based on?What unit?

It's the Normandy (yes I know that you know that) pattern used by the 394. StuG Brigade.
He was not wrong. Amateurs talk tactics, pros talk logistics.

Is there any possibility to add a deck gun or some other fire support to the LVT on Pt. Du Hoc?  It sure would help the GI's get up those cliffs and it would be historically accurate.

Nice suggestion, pls post it in the Feedback thread for Point du Hoc.
