Some squadrons grouped their Fireflies together in a single troop, and later in the war some Armoured Troops had up to two Fireflies. The Sherman V (M4A4) was the most common Sherman available to the British Armoured Divisions (while the Independant Armoured Brigades mostly had Sherman III) during the D-Day landings. To keep mechanical repairs and maintenance streamlined the Firefly Vc (based on the M4A4) was issued to the Armoured Divisions.

Sherman V In Flames Of War While the Sherman V main gun (Anti-tank 10; Firepower 3+) lacks the same punch as the Firefly, it shares the same armour (Front 6; Side 4; Top 1). The Sherman V is able to support the Firefly with the ability to fire both HE and Smoke.
Both the Sherman V and Firefly utilise the Semi-Indirect Fire and Tow Hook special rules. Designed by Evan Allen Stowage by Jeremy Painter Painted by Jeremy Painter
