the previously bugged grenadier made tommies looked worst than they are. In addition, the vet 3 bonus on the tommies was also bugged.
lastly, ost snipers and mortar were also nerfed.
It's not the direct buff people asked for, but it's still something. It is probably more prudent to wait and see how did those changes affect the tommies.
So whats the point locking it behind teching?
The tank cannot fight with other tanks. No one will pull a command panzer as their first vehicle. In practice you choose T3 or T4, build a normal tank, THEN call in a P4 to receive aura boost.
actually the command panzer is useful as your first tanks.
the main gun is still useful against any light vehicle and infantry. The extra durability make it useful as meatshield for paks/schrecks, in addition to directly boosting their durability.
Quick Question: Does the Vet3 on infantry section only increases the power of the 2 scoped enflied or the squad in general? (In theory, I know it was bugged)
vet 3 also provide a squad buff in addition to the scoped lee enfield.
