The panther and the M8

[9.Pz-Div. Günther]

Or, how about some molotov cocktails and simply burn them out, the cheap way. Will have to shop for a new bottle of Vodka afterwards though. But it's worth celebrating.

I answerd back=I dont care!

He then typed lol hrhrhrhr

Take the Puma or Stug everyday over a Panther. Stug its a incredible tank destroyer and kills every tank in a single shot at any angle. Puma its a very fast vehicle and can kill any type of tank at any angle with the 50mm gun.

German biased baby, its where the action is!!!

Panther has every advantage over the stug. Its faster, has a turret, better armor, except for one thing, being a larger target.

And it has less schurzen coverage

[Torenico]

I wonder why the germans never used these armor plates on the Panther. Well, covering the entire side of the tank just like the Pz IV.

[VonMudra]

My guess is because they were originally intended purely to stop russian anti-tank rifle rounds, which couldn't really penetrate the side armour of the panther or tiger.  The shaped charge part only was discovered much later, fully evident by the move to the lighter, easier to produce wire mesh on the late Panzer 4s.  So that can excuse why they didn't original design schurzen for them.  Why they didn't later add them, I have no clue.

[Ts4EVER]

Perhaps because they still had mainly the eastern front in mind, and the russians didn't use many bazookas.

Tea instead of coffee, chips instead of fries, biscuits instead of cookies, and that's just the nutricion part. I could go on.. even in FH2 they ridicule themselves with those desert shorts! I wouldn't wanna die in shorts.. in the desert.. being British.. allright, allright you get the point!

You're trying to be funny, aren't you?
Has someone tested shooting the engine deck yet? You nifty people sure have made some funny experiment.

Yet aint it true? It costs you money, it takes time to apply+dry up and it barely has effect since the enemy doesnt have the reason why it was applied

Nah Paasky, cause you have to get the gun above the Panther's deck to do it, which Greyhound cannot do unlike the Daimler. M5 maybe, but how often does that thing not get noticed from half the map away. I've tried on Luttich w/ the M8 to no avail.

Otherwise your bugged graphic will still be registering hits to the side armor.

So ya, since you missed that, we covered it.

Pound is a strong currency, also very nationalistic in a sense. iirc, mos of the world drives on the left

[Ts4EVER]

And why change the driving rules, I'm sure there are jobs depending on building two versions of cars.
