Lorr 40t to be replaced? Thoughts?

The_Chieftain: Bottom line is that it proved to be something of an outlier in the French line. Once you get past the duck, everything is small, fast, and hard-hitting. Instead all of a sudden you get a tank which is large, reasonably fast, and hard-hitting.   I don't think there's anything wrong with Lorraine per se, I think it gets an unfairly bad reputation, but it just doesn't 'mesh' with the rest of that french line, hence we're looking at replacing it.
