Germany 41% WR — 6.0s reload is an artificial nerf. Abrams got a reload buff for balance; why not Leopards 5.6s?

Attached: Germany 12.7 ground RB 41%, dead last; Sweden second, also Leopard 2s. 7.7+ Germany ~45%, USSR ~60%. Not a patch fluctuation — systemic.

6.0s aced reload is not historical accuracy. It’s a balance tax from when Leo 2 was “best MBT.” That era is over. Stats no longer support it.

Abrams got reload buffs for balance. Double standard: if Abrams can get faster reload to compensate weaknesses, Leopard 2 should get 5.6s aced to compensate months of bottom-tier WR.

Not a 2A7 buff. 2A5/2A6 carry the tree’s stats and are stuck with an outdated ceiling. 5.6s aced is the bare minimum — not faster than Type 90, won’t turn 41% into 55%. Just stop the artificial nerf.

TL;DR: Germany last. Reload is a balance lever. 6.0 → 5.6 aced.

Even if my reasoning would be different, I do think Leo2s could do with 6 second expert crew + fully trained loader.

Locking 6 seconds behind ace which is unobtainable for most people is stupid in light of T-80 buff.
