Description

For
Its quite a good unit. Its second nature is a transporter. It can carry up to 2 infantry units. Its cost would be around 48 000 $ and it could move ONLY on railways (which SHOULD be in AW for a good amount of realism :/ )

You created a broken unit. It has a ridiculous movement range, using it with Grit would end the game period, the transportation aspect is bullshit, and the fact that you gave it the abiliy to target aircraft is just unfair. If you did have this unit in game with those stats it would cos a shit ton more then 48k. You seem to just want an instant win vehicle. A fair stat would be this:

Movement: 5 (thats being generous)
Vision: 3 (about the only thing I agree with)
Fuel: 99/99 (face i no unit carries more then 99 fuel)
Range: 3-6 (come on 3-10 would end up filling every corner of almost every map. And the direct combat aspect? Please this isn't advance wars days of ruin. We don't need an anti tank unit in the better version ofthe series)
Ammo: 3/3 (If you were paying attention the rockets carry 9/9 and artillery carries 6/6. By your logic the neo tank would carry 9/9 and the mega tank would carry 20/20.)
You would ditch the AA and leave it as only a cannon. If you absolutely had to be a big baby about it you could do ONE infantry berth for transport. If you actually looked at real pictures of actual german railguns from ww2 you would notice that there are no secondary emplacements on it. Firing from a train car is dumb enough. You would have horrible accuracy with any secondary weapon. And yes you are the one who brought the realism aspect into my argument. After all this is said and done it would probably cost as much as a battleship. The limitation you placed on it only on railways is probably the only thing you placed that makes it even a tad bit fair. Seriously dude. That is one ridiculus unit.
