as Sander repply " high amor, hp and heavy crush = heavy tank"
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

For the same reason Churchill/KV-1 does not have 260 penetration.

Understandable, but At least churchill/kv1 dont cost 260 fuel to begin with.

M26 Pershing
Pershing is being adjusted to be repaired faster due to its reliance on Rear Echelon squads to repair it. The Pershing is also receiving a slight speed buff once it has received veterancy to retain its role as a mobile heavy tank
Health from 960 to 800
15% damage reduction to retain 6 shot kill but faster repair times
Veterancy 2 provides +10% speed bonus
CP requirement from 12 to 11
Combined Arms
The Combined Arms bonus is being increased for the following units as they have wind-up and/or wind down times that are animation related that are not affected by reload times.
M10s, M36s, Pershing and M8 Scotts receive a +20% reload bonus rather than +15% reload
The M26 Pershing is seeing its reload bonuses increased to compensate for the vehicle's wind-down time which is not affected by veterancy.
Veterancy 3 reload bonus from +30% to +35%
HVAP Shot penetration from 400/350/300 to 1000/1000/1000
Resources required decrease to 520/200

please, Panther is not a classical TD like Jpz4. It is prem-medium tank or high weight medium that forcus on AT department.
Because panther nature, He can stand alone with EVERY ALIES GENARAL TANKs and Inf ( with pintle MG).
Is that make sense to you ?

If you refer to post 215, that's not what he said.
And he is right.
Talking weight, Panther and IS-2 are about equal. It was classified as heavy by literally everyone except megalomaniac germans.

No it does not much sense, using a weight classification to avoid answering a questions does not make sense.
Regardless of everything else Panther in game is vehicle designed to counter other vehicles and thus has the role of a TD. So the questions still stands which unit feels the role of a TD better?

As if M26 should become Medium, it would not be limmited to heavy tank price tag nor limited to 1 !.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

By that logic Valentine is a heavy tank, while Churchills are class fluid, depending on what's mounted on them and KV-1 are meds....
There is classification by role and by weight.
By weight, panther is a heavy in the eyes of everyone but germans.

the combat bonus nerfs for CA will be reverted

It's already getting 2 big and 3 minor buffs, and the combat bonus nerfs for CA will be reverted. It should definitely not get a price decrease to coincide with that. One step at a time. We can always revisit the price later.

What is this?

The Panther is a heavy tank, not a premium medium. Max health on a premium medium is 800. Panther has 960, same as the KV-1 or Pershing. As such, being good at AT and alright at AI is common. She's not a TD.
Don't put any stock into Relic's descriptions. Half of them are inconsistent or wrong.
The Panther is only a medium tank because the Germans classified it as such. It weighed as much or more than most heavy tanks of the time with similar or better frontal protection. It's also technically a heavy in game, because it has heavy crush.

That's how they are classified based on their wrecks. Talking about it, is it possible to set the wreck HP to 100% instead of 50% so scavenging has any value?
