On the utility of StuG III (B/D/E) series in German campaigns

[dragos]

Does anybody use this unit in the German Blitzkgrieg/Panzerkrieg campaigns? In my opinion, at 5 CPs, it is not worth it, as it is worse than a tank and worse than an artillery.

Historically it was one of the most common armor used by the Germans, but only because it was a cheaper replacement for tanks. But here as it is takes almost as a full tank in terms of CP, it defeats this purpose. IMO it should be reduced to 4 or even 3 CPs, so you can deploy 2 of these instead of a single tank, what do you think?
