For some reason the (OKW) Panther is terrible at destroying uncrewed support weapons such as ATGs using attack ground. It just misses 9 out of 10 shots, even up close. I thought maybe it had something to do with the gun having very small AOE damage, but the Stug doesn't have the same problem.
It's pretty annoying and I can't see how this could be a feature. Would love to see a fix.

Do not attack ground, attack weapon directly.
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.

Have never noticed any difference between Panther and other tanks when hitting support weapons.

What support weapon where you shooting at? Some have small target size.

Attack ground on ATGs (like ZiS) make the Panther shells go right through it.
Tanks like PzIV do not have this problem.
I honestly didn't know this, just tested it. Attack move on weapon does indeed make the Panther shots connect. I guess even after 500 hours there's still things to learn.
I suppose that solves it. Still, it's weird that the attack ground doesn't work on the Panther while it does on most (if not all) other tanks.

No..other tanks also miss a lot when you use ground attack vs support weapons.

You can also target things like sandbags directly, so you can use your ATG to destroy enemy green cover.
Same goes for wrecks, deny salvaging for resources and green cover.
Dont know if you already knew that, just putting it out there.

I thought the PzIV did fine with attack ground but it turns out it was AOE damage rather than accuracy / shots connecting. I stand corrected.

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific.

Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.
