put on a camouflage net on the StugIII, or a half tree (branches with leaves :D), and then I'll cum into my pants :D:D

May I asked, although I like all the other ostheer tank skin, the only skin that bugged me is the Panther. Cause.....why the Panther tanks have to be field grey?  ??? Is this to standardized all Panther tanks? Any possibility of changing the Panther skin? Perhaps a camo brown or something, at least the ostheer Panther color reflected its deployment on the Eastern Front, which majority of the Panther tanks are in camo brown or yellow.......

Just a suggestion an opinion, hope you guys won't angry  :-\ please, an explanation or answer will be suffice, thanks  ;)

Soldat.... the general populace of EF has agreed that the Ostheer does not need a Panzer IV because they get the Panzer III which far more customizable and is available in larger numbers because it should be cheaper to make. The only possibility of seeing a Panzer IV of any kind would be the Sturmpanzer IV, which is available post-Modernization in this very Panzer Kampf Kommand.

The 50mm KwK 39 of late-model Panzer IIIs was not suitable against all but the lightest Russian armour, Panzer IVs were the real battle tanks after they were equipped with the L43. Making an Ostheer without the Panzer IV is like making the Red Army with the T-34/76. I guess the general populace just wants to see new models...

There were more StuG variants produced by the end of the war than there were Panzer IVs. Even Panthers were just slightly under the number of Panzer IVs made. The tank overall is outclassed and is just a slight step up from the last class. It's not too major. It's like a Sherman to a Cromwell.

The general populace does like new models, that is quite true, and we are tired of seeing the Panzer IV. And the Red Army has a choice not to use T-34's, as I'm sure you are aware, they can use KV-1 and KV-85 instead.

The 50mm KwK 39 armed Panzer III isn't supposed to go head on against the T-34 and especially not the KV series. It is designed for fighting off the T-90, T70 and possibly SU-76 and SU-85, as well as supporting Infantry. It can be used to attack T-34s in a 2 on 1 situation and with proper micro it can be used for good engagements from the rear.

I originally wanted to see both Panzer IIIs and Panzer IVs in the design, with one taking place of the other post-Modernization, but it makes more sense for us to just stick to using Panzer IIIs.

StuGs were so numerous because they were cheap but having a turret increases an AFV's offensive capabilities significantly. The Panzer IV L43 was still a relevant fighting vehicle at the end of the war(and to an extent post-war), a lot more than can be said for the Panzer III. Panzer IVs were the perfect balance of cost-to-produce, combat effectiveness, and servicability.
