I am not talking about the T26E5. The armor of the M26 is something I have tested a lot, so unless something has changed I am very certain of what I’ve said.
overall tiger 1 feels far more mobile in play style than the m26 ive spaded both and the m26 definently feels less mobile at most tasks
I’ll be completely honest, I don’t care for “feeling”.
I’ve actually tested this stuff, looking at videos that I have recorded frame by frame to determine when the tanks started accelerating and at what time they reached different speeds. The Tiger E is not more mobile than the M26.

ive fought and played every tech tree tiger variant and i can say its not immpossible to counter as its litterlly the counter to the tiger 1 and panther the whole reason it was made was to replace m4 sherman which was not sufficient to fight tigers and panthers hence a counter
That I agree. The M26 isn’t impossible to take out in the Tiger, and I never said it was. Again, all I’m saying is that the M26 is not a “competitor” to the Tiger, it is a noticeably better tank. If the M26 were impossible for the Tiger to counter, I’d have to pretend I’ve never been killed in the M26 by a Tiger, or that I’ve never killed an M26 in a Tiger, neither of which is actually true.
If I say that the M4A3 (76) is better than the Pz.IV H, that doesn’t mean that the M4A3 (76) is impossible for the Pz.IV H to take out, it just means that the M4A3 (76) has a much easier time to take out the Pz.IV H than otherwise.
If a tank is made to counter another tank, doesn’t that mean that it is meant to be better than the other tank?

that makes it its competitor the counter to the tiger 1 and panther is the M26 while yes its weaker its not unkillable just as killable as sherman jumbo
while the tiger 1 has a disadvantage the panther can match the m26 in fire power and armor frontally at least
which is why it should be 6.3 unlike the tiger 1 which a m26 can counter the m26 has a massive disadvantage to the TIGER 2 which it cant do anything against specifically the Henschel model
only can pen it with apcr frontally and apcr is weak
lolno. 76 jumbo 6.3, regular m26 6.7. t26e5 7.0 is the right way tbh
no as everything past 7.0 would have to move up

The Tiger 1 was the answer to interwar tanks and fortifications yet it doesn’t belong at 1.0.

apcr damage is very inconsistent youll like only get the gunner maybe commander hell pull back in cover and fix any damage then push out and shoot you
delusional if you think M60 and T54 vs T26e5 (a uparmored same gun m26) is fair

spawns heavy in a full uptier
complains about ‘unfair’
yes my dude its fair what do you expect? want to enlighten the class on how fair it is for panther to fight t26e5?
it isnt panther shouldnt but theres still spots panther can shoot to kill it like machine gun port T26E5 is basiically a sherman jumbo or shoot corners of lower plate

no uptier should render a vehicle incable fighting in a full uptier the T26 if it was 7.0 would be able to do nothing but die its essentially identical to the m26 but has add on armor
yea ez then. keep spawning your t26e5 in full uptiers and aim weakspots bro. m60 cupola is bigger than mg port and he cant hide it hull down so by your own logic whats the issue here?
T54 has no weakspots frontally the t26e5 only has 185mm of pen and cannot pen anywhere frontally only option is flanking
