the answer to any medium spam is panthers. Direct counter. Also the initial discussion was about AI performance.

Look, I highly doubt that you will start respecting your fav faction's units more from forum comments, but at least check out unit's stats and download "Cheat Command" with test map, if you don't want to play Allies.

you dont get the point, right?
i know that panthers can deal with medium. everybody know.

the point is:

when you spam panthers, you stay alone in AT department. even 3 panthers cant deal with AT like one comet could. comets spam is such craty thing, because you can deal with ALLLLLLL targets. 2 or 3 at guns is not a deal for one comet...when you play this tank right. (smoke one or two at guns, circle the orther, trwo grenades, wipe crew with 1 or 2 shots, shot phosphor round, have incredble god speed and mobilty)

you can deal with panthers and other AT plattforms easily in a wolfpack, since every other mobile AT plattform from axis is a turret-less TD.
squads near by get wiped easily by comets spam, so no...this isnt a good counter. mines are least chance to pray to god.

combine your comet spam with double piat pios and wipe the floor with everything which the enemy could field.

you answered your question. Both options are top tier options in their respective class.

its the only option OKW has, but sadly they are bad.
P4 is a minute 15 medium which has not the power to deal good in really lategame. (mostly teamgames)
KT is on most maps and most teamplays a useless punchingball bullied by so good AT options from allies.
to slow, to slow turret, to many TD and other AT option which means it is more in repair than on front. thats why you never see a KT in most games in high ranks. only some maps are ok for it.

In fairness: Apparently the actual man hours and material cost in RM was identical between a Panzer IV and Panther. Furthermore, sure, Germany could build four StuGs to a Tiger, but could they man them? Could they fuel and oil them? Though I suppose there's an argument to be made given parts shortages (to the point of units literally fighting each other to get parts for their vehicles) that it'd be better to have four StuGs worth of spare parts.

And more:

imagine a country which is bombard everyday and night and sourrounded by the half world and has low ressources at all and is in fight over whole eruope, north africa, pacific, atlantic and asia...

and is able to produce in every department of weapon class mostly the best of the best product.

which was able to beat in most cases the allies counterpart product in most fight consterlation easily.

remind you that germany fight with something like 50k tanks overall vs around 300k tanks.

yes a panther had its weakpoints...but it was able to fight whole tank companies by itsself often with much less losses.

The same conclusion you've reach. IA damage isn't the A&O when comparing sherman and other tanks. If sherman IA damage was such a thing then it would perfectly feet with pathfinders providing vision for the sherman to snipe and deal high casuality damage from max range.

imagine you thinking this way that you comment in a puplic forum that the sherman pathfinder combo would be identical to a scott pathfinder combone....

imagine this only..

No, "wipe" can also mean to destroy a squad so that it can no longer be reinforced. A "squad wipe" is just killing the squad, not necessarily deleting it in one shot.

wtf....i even explained what i mean with "wiping sqauds here and there"
yes everthink can wipe a crew. even a AT gun can do it with a long amount of time.

what we talking about is wipe sqauds with 1 or 2 shots.
never seen a panther doing that. never.

but a comet...this thing lol around the battlefield and not only wipe easily squads...it is fast like a gocart...has more armor...smoke and phosporous round to deal with several AT guns at the same time.

spaming panther is mostly dumb because u have no good AI. you stay alone with AT.

but spaming comets is so good these days..you can deal with all targets. you are fats enough, have enough armor, smoke, great AI, good AT, .... its the best chice you could make in this game.
