Panther was designated a medium tank by the army that used it. Kv8 was a modified kv1 (both not limited to one, but both a heavy tank), which was designated a heavy tank by the army that uses it. The churchill was designated a medium tank I presume, yet it has more health than a King Tiger, KV1, Tiger and Panther, so game and balance wise it makes no sense.
Now tell me, why shouldn't it be limited? It can drive up to anything, kill it, including throwing grenades at at guns, and smoke away with health left.
Also, if the Panther should be limited, than the comet should as well
Classification between medium light and heavy tank depended on the intended use of the tank, not its weight.
Considering stats alone, panther is more of a heavy tank then any KV tank in coh2 is.
Churchill always was heavy tank in all classifications, so don't joke around trying to say it was medium, because thats laughable.
Why wouldn't it be limited?
For example because it doesn't have a gun that murders anything and everything around as opposed to every other true heavy tank.
And please STOP learning from alex, he spits bullshit about tank nades, but I have yet to see a single player terrible enough to not see the nade coming and get out in time.
