Why did my stuka move forward when I asked it to move backwards?

Snipers are indeed a good way to counter Rifles, but have fun with the M20/M15 then, because Ostheer T2 already comes late than the Lt tech, getting sniper would even more delaying your Pak.

Relic stated in their last update:

"The Panzer IV will continue to dominate the T34 in the anti-armor role but will perform worse versus infantry."

However from all my experiences, when a P4 comes head to head with a T34, the deciding factor of the battle really comes down to one factor; which tank gets in the first penetrating shot. This tell me one thing, these tanks are basically even when versing each other.

Although the P4 gets mgs (50muni), the t34's gun is much better verse infantry - I don't know which is better in this case.

The P4 acquires blitz (30muni) at vet one in comparison to the t34's ram - I feel the p4's ability is much better in this scenario.

Finally the p4 can get doctrinal smoke (30muni)

So the question is - Is the P4 higher cost of 25 fuel and 40 man-power justified in comparison to the price and performance of the t-34?

With all the hints we got through relic during the last weeks, we will get a big patch, tailored for balance due the ESL push relic has in mind.
