Flanking a Panther is the easiest thing to do after all. All we have to do is smoke and flank, right? Gawd, play some games as allies.

And when I play allies Panthers are no deal. Mark target, drive in, win.
Mine? Dead Panther. Simply because it is weaker every other medium tank in the game bar the T-34/76 without the frontal armor.

Mine? Dead Panther. Simply because it is weaker than every other medium tank in the game for cost bar the T-34/76 without the frontal armor to utilize because of the sheer lack of rof.

Panthers are great because you can force enemies to fight you on your terms. You have the range, speed, and armor advantage. It's not the panthers fault if you keep getting it flanked by enemy mediums.
This is actually the tiny bit of historical accurancy in the game, tanks that have higher on the move accurancy, namely sherman variants and comet were the ones that used gun stabilisers during ww2. This is one of inventions germans never thought of so german tanks didn't use stabilisers and had worse accurancy on the move, to the point that real tankers actually shot on the move only in very rare cases. I guess relic decides to add a little fun historical polish to sherman with that stat.

Funnily I've read that the Sherman's stabilizer realistically would more help keep the gun pointed toward the target before stopping to fire accurately instead of actually firing on the move, which all of the game's tanks are basically capable of already

On a side note, a nice feature for CoH3 would be to have some kind of reload progress indicator so you can more clearly know when to stop your tank for more accurate fire.

No AT grenades, no mobile artillery, rocket artillery is doctrinal, no offensive stock infantry, generally worst anti-blob means among all factions, no heavy tanks that can fight back, AI of their tanks is actually the worst compared to all other factions...
Please remind me, why does the OKW deserve a non-doctrinal heavy tank?
