This is bullshit. I play 1v1 and the E8 comes at exactly the right time--about the same time as a panther. Since Panzershreks > Bazookas, the Axis are already winning the AT war, and 2 E8s (to be able to beat a panther or tiger) are 270 fuel. The E8 should be inferior to the Panther but only barely.
Then again, axis fanboys who don't want more than 10% Allies

There's no reason EZ8s should come any earlier in CPs than T34/85s.
There's no reason why the Ostheer Panther should have significantly worse stats even at vet0 than the OKW Panther, and the unit could use those stat buffs rather than the OKW version getting nerfed down to the Ostheer level.
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.

OKW is supposed to have stronger, more expensive units.
Ostheer panther is weaker, but you also have all sorts of over medium tanks to support it. The support units for the OKW panther are much lighter vehicles. (flak track, panther, luchs)

What exactly is the difference between vet0 OKW and Ost Panther?

Well, Pumas are the same.
Doesn't really make sense why Panthers should be different at vet0.
Better scaling, sure, but better default stats?
OKW Panther/puma already arrives much quicker then wehr ones, that is their elite perk.

OKW
Wehr
(I wonder how many people accusing me of being biased even knew about this)

The E8 is not even slightly overperforming. It isn't spammable, it doesn't do too much damage, it doesn't have too much armour or health, and it doesn't have too much penetration. For what it is, a mid game tank that gets countered by the next tank up, it's a perfectly fine tank.
Panthers are also fucking awesome, don't know what you people are talking about.

OKW panther doesn't really arrive quicker than Wehr. They both take fucking forever.
They have different armies supporting their tanks. The OKW panther also has 5 levels of vet, but Ostheer has cheaper repair, doctrinal stuff like free smoke, more supporting vehicles etc. They're different armies.
That said, I don't really care either way since it's a slight accuracy change.
Do you know the stats for the command panther?
