*sighs*

There are many more valuable aircraft/GV's to be added to this game before the King Tiger.

Definetly! 

It will stop this massive T-34/85 mess.

I mean seriously that kinda tank with 3 perks? 

PnzR 4's are now completely obsolete and you will rarely see tigers anymore. 

EDIT: Subway is right though. there are more important  things to be added, but i still think it would be sweet.

OK, I'll leave this thread alone.

Much rather have the Panther.

[100goon]

i did a panther post in july no one replied

[RMrider]

Much rather have the Panther.

Panther would be more fun to drive aorund and fight with, the way we do now. but king tiger would be like a HUGE stationary anti-tank gun.

Up an IL2 with 37mm. Dive on T34/85 from back. Hit turret once. No more problems. Those 85's are VERY vulnerable in the turret.

I give this guy a full 10 points for providing info on his wish unlike some people, and a 2 for originality...though what HASN'T been wished for yet? 

I'd like to see the Panther, and a LOT more other tanks added before we get the King Tiger though.

Why limit yourself like that?  Sure, when I flew it was mostly RAF, but I flew everything at least a little bit.
