M5 Light Tank
The M5 is fast, but its 37mm gun is severely under-powered against the German armour. Use the M5s to locate hidden enemy units and then use their “break off” ability to pull back when fired at. Once the enemy’s location is known use the M5s’
speed to try and outflank the Germans and close to short range.

M7 Howitzer Motor Carriage
