| Fridgeraider (Instructor) | I think the M-1A2's superior mobility really gets me on this one. The gun of the M-1A2 is good enough anyway and its armor has been proven to be superb surviving direct hits and stuff.

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Cam I ask how you've arrived at these match-ups in the first place? Did you draw lots, was it random or did you design it this way? I think it's silly putting 2 'heavyweight' tanks up against each other at this stage. Would have been better had they met in the semi-final for instance. Anyway I vote for the M1A2 as it does have better mobility. There isn't really much else to choose between them. |

| Primus Pilus | There very similar almost the same in terms of performance, apart from C2 having better armor and the M1A2 having better mobility. |
