What role does a Panzer III have if you already have the panzer IV which is all better, I would think a panzer III and a Panzer IV Ausf. F1 (infantry support tank) or something be better but why have a panzer III which has less armor and a smaller gun than the panzer IV?

F1 (infantry support tank) or something be better but why have a panzer III which has less armor and a smaller gun than the panzer IV? Why have a panzer IV when theres a panther with a bigger gun and thicker armour? Well because you can spam panzer 4s and they are cheaper and cost less pop. I guess the Pzer 3 should also take 6 instead of 8.
The thing is that I imagined the Ostheer as a misture between the panzer elite and the british army, making it the assault force by excellence with more focus on movility and fast deplpyment. As for the infantery, come on , the panzer Elite is in the same situation
- Ostheer units are cheaper and faster due to their not having ressource OP xcept from truck. British don't suffer from money shortages. Nor are their units anything like cheap. There is also the point to consider that they would play with Wehr/PE who would make OPs When you say ressources stretched long distances, etc. Instead, make units few and powerful? That's a german trademark. Make them come via call-in after a long delay. Should be summonned rather than trained on the spot, of all things. - No Finnish/Yougoslavs. Another pure German Faction. Must make 4 USA factions to compensate, yes? - Complex structure, I like. Actually, it reminds me of the mod Afrika Korps. Where different buildings build completely different things depending on what doctrine you've chosen Cheers!
