Today, I have unlocked the Panzer 3b. Because I already own all the Russian tanks, I’m going to give my honest opinion on this vehicle. I immediately fell in love with this thing and people should appreciate it more Remember, even if I like this tank I still agree that it never participated in the battle of Moscow and removing it from the game might be a good idea. (I will not compare it to Panzer 2 because I still think there is something off with Panzer 2’s armour)

So here is my review on this tank and how it preforms against all three Russian tanks:

Firepower:
Speaking about firepower, this tank has TWO deadly MG-34’s that can wipe out a whole squad in just a second or two. MG-34 feels like it deals much more damage compared to Russian coaxial gun DTM and also it has higher rate of fire. When playing Russian tanks, I always had troubles with my coaxial gun meaning that it took me sometimes 4 shots to kill an enemy soldier with a slow firing gun.
This tank also has a quick firing 37mm gun. Some people complained how this gun is the worst crap in the game and HE shell needs buffs but from my perspective (a guy who owns tanks on both sides) this gun is as crappy as the soviet one, Soviet gun actually has better Anti tank capabilities so it is better than the german 37 but not by a much.

Armour and Survivability:
This tank has similar armour as BT-7 and T-26…so no armour :confused:
Survivability is a different story though, it has 5 crew and the whole tank is quite chunky so crew can actually leave the vehicle, repair it, and still use it effectively while loosing 3 crewmembers.
Without any huge thinking, this tank is more survivable than all 3 Russian tanks.
Panzer 2 is still actually more survivable but that’s more of a bug than a feature…

Mobility:
Not bad

T-60
This tank is B’s worst nightmare, to kill it you have to shoot first. This tank has only 2 crewmembers and eliminating it wouldn’t be a problem if you know where to shoot

T-26
This tank is like Panzer 3B but worse in every way. It has a slightly better gun but worse MG, survivability, armour, mobility and reliability. It also has 3 crewmembers who are stuck together in a small space so eliminating them all in one shot is possible. Mobility is so bad that this tank cant even run away when critically damaged.
This tank basically is free food.

BT-7
It’s like a t-26 but with a better engine. Good tankers will use this thing’s speed to try and dodge tank shells (worked for me a couple of times). It also has slightly better survivability than the t26 but not by a much… survivability is still crap.

So here you go, I gave some love to this unloved tank. Give it a chance, it might be good. Play it before it gets removed forever

i agree.

the main problem is… just like the ba-11 has been removed, it’s because it was not present during moscow. same thing Should go for the pz III b.

the ba-11 it has been already replaced with the t-60 in order to compete with pz IIs. that’s what most people were triggered for ( having a substancial difference of tanks fighting each other ). although the tank it self it’s not that bad. especially when you angle it ( a bit weird that you consider the armor not good ). and as you fully explained ( which by the way, great work for the effort ).
but during the 1940 those tanks were used for training.

and for the same reason, it should be replaced by a t35 or a t38 for the germans, in order to be like a bt7 and give a balance insthead of an issue. as they get the later version of a pz III which was present.

cuz right now, pz III are dominant compared to t26 or bt7s.

I know Panzer 3B will eventually be removed but that doesn’t mean we can’t still have fun with it

the more you get attached to these, the more you will suffer from it’s loss.

happened to me with the ba-11, svt, and g41s… T_T

Don’t worry, those rifles will probably come back during the OBT

i hope. and this time, gived to the radio man operator, like the first time.

but we’ll see.

and perhaps this is not the right threads to discuss about it.

sory-

I think it will be available for all trooper class soldiers. I only hope devs will make them more rare than bolt action rifles because SVT was produced in smaller numbers than Mosin and G41 was hardly used

Well hopefully in the rejumble for OBT it will be replaced with relevant vehicles, this is simply for testing atm, and the BA-11 was removed both because it didn’t fit historically and because it was kinda broken in game, with it being replaced by a more relevant and better operating vehicle.

Two mgs is a real argument in a conquest game mode. I’ve seen so many times 200+ wiped manpower by Pz. III in a right position in a defence and attack. So, yeah. It useful a lot.

Also we can say about BT-7. it have extra fuel tanks for 375 km distance run by one gas fillup. And it’s a weaker point. Wherever you fire at it - highly likely you will burn it up

Now I no longer find semi auto shooting bug, probably they will add this back as a common weapon.
