M6A2E1 needs a buff?
this is my... atleast 6th time sending in this request/complaint of how bad the M6A2E1 does in battle. Especially now where all the new tanks are coming out. the perimeters of the tank are pretty bad, considering the following
1. the Gun- an T5E1E 105mm (AP, HE, APCR) is a tier 8 gun meant for a tier 7 tank, the T29. so usually this means the tank is not usually meant to see battles in tier 9 battles, so the gun wont be so effective vs. tier 9 as it is for tier 8. SO because my tier 8 gun meant for a tier 7 tank see -TIER10- battles, i cannot penetrate MOST of the enemy tanks, i end up using HE rounds, but even then they dont pen much so not much dam is dealt. i realize the T32 is a tier 8 too that uses this gun, yet it has better mobility then the T26E4... as the admin say.
2. the Armor- the armor of the M6A2E1 is front: 191, Sides: 44, rear: 41. this is okay ONLY IF the M6A2E1 had accuracy like a sniper tank i.e. the 0.33 accuracy of the 90mm DCA 45 AC on the AC Mle. 1946. the biggest flaw is when i try to cover my butt when i try to take out a Type 59 thats circle jerking me. i turn my hull so my 191mm front faces him, but then i get shot from the rear by a different enemy then die. its frustrating because most every one knows how to exploit my weaknesses, most even know of the front armor weakness of the driver spout, shoot it then i loos my driver.
3. the top 5 reasons why most dont like the tank. its a bad tank, its flawed in firepower, armor, and most all other aspects, its too big. a T29 can take me out! my gun wont pen the front of an IS-3! the vulnerable spots are HUGE. its an artillery shell magnet for how big it is! its hard to hide because most bushes are smaller then me. the cred and exp income are INCREDIBLY low for a premium tank for some unknown reason, even when i get 3 kills, cap 50% of the enemy base, spot 2 enemy tanks, & assist in destroying 5 enemy tank (damaged 5).

=now heres what it all comes down too. from the 3 past posts of my complaint i have done; it seams people complain too much when i ask for a buff ofr this rare tank. then in my 4th thread of this, some 1 suggested to just make it so it will not see tier 10 battles. so that is my objective currently.=
currently the Type 59, T26E4, jag8.8cm, FCM 50t, KV-5, & Object 252; do not see tier 10 battles
i am not trying to compare the KV-5 and the Lowe to the M6A2E1. yet if you must. the KV-5 beats the M6A2 in every category, accept the Lowe trumps them both in gun statistics average combining the spec number of Pen, Dam, and RoF together. the M6A2E1 doesnt come out ontop of ether of these tanks...
-please dont start comparing them till you look up all the tanks and do a side by side comparison like i did, before commenting.

iv been told by a tech admin to to open this on the forum. so please nothing that will start a flame please.
