Should Panther be on the list? Allmost every country considered it to be a heavy tank. Thats also why I chosen PzIV.

Thats probably becouse 3 T34 were destroyed for every StugIII lost...
Soviet tanks had poor visibility, crew comfort (tired crews dont fight well) and less accurate guns.

Umm, There were like 10 times the number of T34s then there were Stug III, I dont think that was a valid argument since its easier to hit and kill 3 T34 tanks than one measely StugIII now isn't it?

Ha ha ha, Like Red said: T34 won the Russians WWII so there's nothing you can really say to recitify that now is there.

If T-34 won the war, it wasn't because was the best medium tank but because they had a lot of these. If 3 T-34 were lost to a StuGIII there were already other 7 T-34 rolling out.

So, I'm afraid this is not relevant for the current discussion.

Yep. If ease of production is a factor then the best tank of the war is the Jeep. :P ;D

at least you don't name everyone here as 'nazi'  ::)

My vote goes for Panther. T-34 was less armoured, had worse armament, it might be faster and easier to produce, but panther outclassed T-34 is 1v1 with an ease.

The Pershing was reclassified as a med Tank after the war.

As for the comments regarding EF

Lets nerf the Soviets. Is the general gist of all comments.

I never hear lets nerf axis cause they are OP. (Which is what I want to see)

I know I'm gonna be called a Soviet fanboy but to be absolutely honest I play Germans more than anything else so I know, with the correct play Germans can rape any strategy Allies come up with. As an example this is a stupid match against an expert bot. Bots make poor arguments for balance issues but there are just things that Bots do that demonstrate the weaknesses of the armies used...

Ha ha 19  votes later and still 0 for the Sherman. I consider it to be a lot like the T 34 in that it was Mass produce to overrun the germans and had to upgrade its gun to stand a chance against better german armour. guess there arent any American fanboys on this forum. ;)
