Bolt Action US M4A3E8 Sherman Easy Eight Warlord Games
🛡️ M4A3E8 Sherman Easy Eight
Advanced medium tank with 76mm high velocity gun
📖 Description
Initially designated the M4A3(76)W HVSS but shortened to M4A3E8, this medium tank was eventually nicknamed the 'Easy Eight' by the US soldiers who fought in and alongside them.
The Easy Eight boasts several improvements over earlier M4 Sherman designs: Horizontal Volute Suspension System (HVSS), wider tracks, welded hull instead of cast, and most importantly a high velocity 76mm main gun.
First introduced in December 1944, just in time for the Battle of the Bulge, where they proved their worth in treacherous conditions.
⚔️ Combat History
Over 2,500 Easy Eights were produced during WWII. The design proved successful enough to continue fighting during the Korean War and even into the Vietnam conflict.
In Bolt Action this is a medium tank with heavy anti-tank gun, co-axial MMG, hull mounted MMG and optional pintle mounted HMG.
