Pens just about anything but a Sherman, sure, but only after playing a few rounds with a Panzer IV I realized that this comes at the cost of not being able to aim downwards very far making it less effective against infantry. I am starting to think I might stick to the Panzer 3N as it’s armor is decent, it can fight some tanks, and it does quite the number on infantry. This, of course, in BRII and III. I don’t see it being much good beyond that.
I am not sure of understanding, because Pz IV J (and other panzer with KwK 40) has -10°/20° of vertical guidance. This is the exact same as Pz III N, so you should be able to aim downward in the same way.
Really? I don’t know, maybe it’s just my imagination.
Panzer 3n has even less pen than panzer 4
Yes, that is correct.
I think he is talking about the projectile drop cant think of another reason to pick the Pz III over the Pz IV but the HE spam and the projectile drop like an SPA
Even playing BR3, I still prefer Pz III N Stalingrad over Pz IV J
The gun elevation/depression is fine, the soviet one is worse, the KwK 40 is pretty good for what it is intended, the problem is Pz IV J, which is a piece of dogshite, the slowest medium tank of the game, and it still have the same dogshite turret armor(50mm flat…), you are playing it pretty much like a TD, just don’t bother turn the turret, but the entire hull with the turret
