Do you have a better shorthand description then?
Allied TDs.....? Not like they have any doctrinal ones u could confuse them with. Unless u count ISU with AP
Panther is going to get annihilated by a half-decently piloted tank with KT stats. Outslugged, out-dps'd, out-armoured and outgunned. It's like sending a Comet vs KT and then unsurprisingly being flattened into the floor and then 10 more metres deep. Maybe you can win the lottery in bounces but this is unrealistic.
Comet doesnt outrange the KT, it has less hp than a panther, and 50 lower pen at far range. That aint the same
Of course KT has edge but the panther will do well for cost, specially with its mobility against an IS2 that would now be much slower
What's OST going to get vs this monster then? StuGs? PaKs are already DoA vs SOV late game.
No they arent, specially if this newly priced things on the field. Way less pop/fuel for katys
If it got this treatment would need all the price increases too. Probably even make it cost a little more than KT to make up for tech difference (sov is cheaper total iirc)
IS-2 was highly cancerous during the heavy meta iirc.
Wasnt every heavy tank? Isnt that why its called the heavy meta
IIrc that was same time as when OKW got their new tiger 1
