Nanynek, on 21 February 2012 - 10:53 AM, said: Well this leads to question ...
If the AMX 13 are treated like same tier mediums, why are they placed in the higher tier battles?
Edit:
I feel bit sad for AMX 13 90 comparing it to Lorraine.
AMX is just bit smaller and have little advantage on speed and agility (except the horsepower per ton).
It have worse guns.
It is put to two tiers higher battles then Lorraine on average...
Since i dont see hidden parameters i dont think AMX 13 90 is better then Lorraine.

Overlord: Matchmaking weight is a part of vehicle balancing. Without that
increased MM value, AMX 13 90 would be completely OP.

my M7, but its lack of gun depression makes it a bit of an odd-one

Overlord: We do differ "balanced" when it comes to vehicle combat performance
and "balanced" when it comes to matchmaking weight. French high
tier lights have higher MM values than same tier meds, however they
are "balanced" to match them in combat.

2. Техникой, на которую ставится БЛ-10, практически любого врага с 10 ХП можно добить тарантом. Исключения - ТТ10 для ИСУ-152.
3. Для ПТшковода лишний снаряд, выпущенный по подранку, не проблема - перезарядка достаточно хорошая (исключение - БЛ10). А вот для меня, как для артовода, это уже непозволительная роскошь - перезарядка почти 35 секунд, стоимость снаряда в районе 1900 кредитов. Так что если там вражеский танк с 10 ХП (исключение - ТТ9-10) и наш равноуровневый, у которого ХП достаточно, чтобы выдержать 1 выстрел врага, я в 80% случаев стрелять не буду.
