So eg
Type:	   Sherman	 T34 model 1942     Panther	Tiger 1E
			    (ie76mm)
Size:	      3 	       3	       4	   5
Armour:       2 	       3	       4	   5
Engine:      CFE	      CFE	      CFE	  CFE
Mobility:  Slow Trk	   Fast Trk	    FastTrk    V.Slow.Trk
Weapons:    HVAC/3	    HVAC/3	     HVAC/4	 HVAC/5  
      (HVAC/4 in Firefly)
Firecon:   Enhanced	     Basic	    Superior	Superior

That actually looks pretty reasonable, I'd say...
