I dont think people understand how dominating this tank would be in this game if it were implented.  The things that held the Pzr V back can not be modelled correctly in the game (reliability issues, etc).  Think of the T34/85mm (speed, chassis armor, etc) without the turret made of cheese and a cannon just as effective as the 88mm vs gv's in this game.  I'm guessing it would be the highest perked GV in the game.

I think there are other gv's that are needed first.   :)

Such as?

a legit TD (M10/M18/Marder, etc)

a legit self propelled direct fire cannon (Priest, Sdkfz 251/9, etc)

another early war tank (Pzr III w/ 5cm cannon)

etc.... the "MBT" role is well spoken for.   ;)

Well why stop there, how about mobil Howitzer Field Artillery.  Shelling Towns from say 10-20k out.

Now I think that would be fun!

How about the German Hummel?
