Actual Panther II

I disagree with these changes fully!
they could add panther II with 75mm as event tank
the panther II 88m should be just renamed KwK 43.

the 10.5cm king tiger should be left like it is it’s fake and should not be back who already own it just enjoy it.

Imho: It can’t beat the prototype Panther. Its just the best, 5.0 BRed, fast, good intertia and acceleration. Why would I play 6 or even 6.3 Panthers with the same gun and alot slower?

For some armour?

Make a simple test. Use the prototype @ 5.0 BR and see how much incoming fire can be tanked.
Use one of the 6.0 ones and do the same.

Practically the 5.0 will be alot more armored. Also the gun is much better. A whole BR is really alot of a difference.

Edit: Since the KV-1 has been upped to 4.3 BR, you get also super great match making.

Ive always putted it off because the D is just .3 br higher. Time to give it another shot someday.

Panther II never received an 8.8cm. The 8.8cm Panther was planned for regular Panthers.

A proposal for the Panther F.
Just how the 10.5cm KwK was a proposal for the Tiger II.

In reality the tanks would have suffered sever problems in handling those larger shells, meaning a reduction in RoF that wouldn’t have been compensated the higher penetration.

Kinda like a T-34-100.

i mean the one in the game should be rename to panther II kwk 43 after they add panther II 75

Makes no sense though, because it’s not the Psnther 8.8

No, you’re misunderstanding me. The Panther 8.8cm design had nothing to do with the Panther II.

The Panther II having an 8.8cm is completely false. Renaming it to Panther II 8.8cm does nothing for fixing historical accuracy.

we would end with all nations looking the same if we add subnations into the mix
