I get it is the slowest to position, slowest to traverse lock etc.
Ok that is fine.
But somehow its gunners often gets taken out first.
Especially when you are setting up to fire.
Once killed, we get into slow change over animation.
It is bad against Alliesl, especially vet late game, where you dont suppress as fast against blob.

Can we arrange the 3 man support to be in front, so they can shield the gunner, take the bullets to their knees first?

Just increase the fuel cost. Fighting for fuel is a tactical reward, so it make sense.

Imo allies do still build their t3t4 tanks. I don't think heavies need much change.

If anything 60TD should be considered to 55TD. For axis their t4 is inefficient, and t3 is easy meat for 60td, hence the less variety in axis build.

Pershing has obvious trade-offs compared to Tiger, which you'd know if you'd take an unbiased look at the stats. I wouldn't call one clearly better than the other. IS2 is probably the best heavy - if we take its counters into account - which gets addressed below.

It sounds like a small change, but it's quite significant. The only armor that really matters in endgame situations is armor above the 180-190 mark, the far penetration value of most AT guns. Reducing the big chunk the IS2 has above this value even with just 25 will make quite a big noticeable in game.

The Tiger's fast rof makes it far too efficient against infantry. Its AoE is not far off from the Pershing, but it reloads much faster (5~ reload vs 6,5). If you added 0,5 more reload to Tiger, you could give it like 10-20 more penetration to compensate loss of AT power.

How about this:
- 18 pop to 16 pop
- 50 range to 55 range
- 185 fuel to 175 fuel
- 960 hp to 800 hp
- 260 armor to 220 armor

This would put it somewhere between the current Panther and 60 range TD's in terms of role. It would not bully mediums as hard, but be a more efficient counter to heavies. It would also allow it to more easily return fire against 60 range TD's, without overly exposing itself.

I honestly not know which areas Tiger is better than Pershing besides Rof. When Relic gave Pershing additional 160Hp at slight cost of armor (still high vs Axis stock pen) and rof vet bonus (still within vet Tiger and better than hyped Panther).

That change imo, makes Pershing more Tiger than Tiger. A Tiger that has mobility and accuracy of Sherman, and can be supported by Jackson.
Hence i rank it clearly above Tiger in use. Tiger slight rof is its saving grace.

This change to Panther is still bad. The only sensible is the range change...but for Allies 60TD to 55TD.
This theorectical Panther is still less cost effective than 60TD and their sweet vet bonus. This new Panther will get eaten by Comet and Ukf.

Then simply change the bad design of allied TDs. Either JP need some changes or Allied TDs. Or both.

Yes very strange decision by Relic. Know is bad, but dont look into it?

As my suggestion, make it 55TD. This make Pak/Rak and Jp4 more able to counter them, put 55TD on their toes like it should be. But 55TD is still a safe distance from Axis 50 stocks return fire.

Make heavies later CP, at least in 4v4, 55TD have more window to prevent resources for heavies build. Maybe, become 60TD at vet3. I dont know man, the 60TD have great vet bonus already and 60 range is so lazy help. Reduce 70TD heavies to 60TD, so they can less zone out a game. These heavies have already nerfed so slow in positioning, encourage the flanks already. AT Guns can also counter them at 60.

Yes top players are OP and can make best of every situations.

It is also in line with their choices, like their lack of faith in Jp4, in P5, in T4, in Wehr, in Grens combined arms, in Pg with shreks.

Thus as a lower level player wishing to play less competitively, i find the Axis, Wehr still lacking. Or as some said, Allies factions got buffed at their low and high end.

The WC19, the 2v2 WC18, results seems to tally ho. I think it has always been the balancing is in view from Allies first. The old theory of Axis heavy armor suprememacy is still intact with some here. They are some who think Pershing is squishy and Tiger is click to win still.

As such the next big patch needs to seriously consider 60TD and Axis T4. It has been 60TD gets strong on stock and vet in conjunction with Axis heavy nerfs. Like i been saying, lets step back from these double whammy nerf. The impact is doubled.

Axis is in such tough nerfed state, that top players wont mind going with the same meta, okw grand offensive tiger. Opening up themselves for predicatibility and counters. I seen more unit variety in Allies plays this time, imo.

Didn't you already make a thread on this like a week ago?

Not the same technically. This is smaller in scope and easy to implement.
