Hej.

II've been playing around with the Cromwell rush and when doing that, going Airborne (or whatever it is the Brits call that - Commandos?)

The heavy glider can produce the M2A2, a 75mm piece of field artillery.

I made one.

It looks broke - the only command options are halt, attack move and fire at specified location.

Why do you think it's broken? It's like other guns, just doesn't have AP ammo upgrade and can't camo because it's an old infantry support gun.

It isn’t meant to be field artillery, just a field gun providing direct fire support

Ah, my mistake.

I thought it was field artillery.

So... why does it exist, when the glider can make a 6-pounder anyway?

Or is it more an anti-infantry weapon?

Yes, 6-pounder has an anit-tank/vehicle function. M2A2 fires HE shots by default so it is more effective against infantry and emplacements.

That fucker outranges the base AA emplacements so use that knowledge to your advantage
