Self explanatory. First game I played with the new patch and somewhere the Panzerfaust ability was deleted on some squads. My wild guess is that it happens if some models drop. Note how the ability can´t be choosen next to the incindiary grenades.
Am I the only one who thinks a tank whose weakness is low rear armor and that is supposed to dive into enemy lines (as in exposing your rear) is one big contradiction? If you use it as it´s supposed to be used you are at the same time risking to lose the unit.
The diving tank concept as some want to depict the Panther does not work versus competent players. And in my opinion that´s why the Panther is so unsatisfactory to use.

if you can get unlimited panthers why cant you get unlimited pershings its fucked up pershing isant heavy just like panther both of them are medium
Because you also can get unlimited Comets, T-34/85s and E8s, which share similar health with the Panther. I´d consider them an own class. Improved mediums. The Panther however costs way more while offering less utility. The Comet is in the same cost bracket, yet kills infantry easily and only loses by a small margin versus the Panther. The sheer dps of all "improved mediums" is lowest on the Panther due to the rate of fire.
It´s good for nothing. Can´t tank since it has a mediums health pool, can´t be spammed since it´s one of the most expensive units in the game, can´t outrange a lot of units and can´t even out-dps a fucking Panzer IV.
Don´t build it.
The only-allied expert team is coming for you though since you proposed a buff to a German tank. Pretty tired of arguing against them again. Have fun.
Ostheer is good for supporting but sucks when there is no OKW included. Paks and MGs to screen the OKW player + 222s and snipers for support are good. Yet when you have two Ostheer players you can´t stand up to anything as the core units lack. Grens lose versus Bren Tommies, Panzer IV loses to Cromwells, Panthers suck etc.
The US mortar is a good addition. Everything that gives an alternative option to Rifleman spam is good.
Further the mortar is going to be needed versus all the MGs OKW players are going to field now. I can´t see anything wrong with the addition of the mortar.
