Okay, as he said, depends on your Playstyle. Do you like fast tanks with less armor or Heavy TD's and much armor?

Eh.... doesn't the JGII have both? Very slopy armor AND nice mobility?

I was intending to get it because of that, hope I wasn't wrong :(

I would go with jagpanther two because there will be second TD line, so you could store XP and get ready for it.

WhiteNinja, the ferdinand will no longer be the tier 8 td in the second TD line.

here's the updated tree from the wikipedia.

JP II is like a baby JT. It's faster and more mobile but has the same butter hull armour with tough front superstructure.

Ferdi - good armor, at best average mobiliy

Jagpanther II - butterlike armor, great mobility
Jagpanther Ii is like Jagpanther but bigger and with really huge gun. Had some really great battle in it on testserver but quite often weak armor was pain. It worked great with mediums wolfpacks, they protected my side, I was supporting them with my good penetration and huge alpha.

Had a good laugh at test server. T-50 kept JPII detracked and shot every 2nd shot at front of it. Approximate translation of converstaion ensued:

JP2: having fun, are you?
T-50: neah. just looking for weekspots
JP2: nothing to look for. it's one huge weekspot &^%*&^%*&^!!!!

hmm is the gun from JP2 not them like Ferdi?

They have the same guns. Jagdpanther II has also a bit higher RoF, but it's armor is paper like the Jagdpanther.

I think both are good, but i prefer Ferdinand. Even if the grind is harder due to incompatible modules like engines.

Ferdi's good armor is a myth.

I agree. Ferdi is only useful if you can hull down, otherwise everyone knows to shoot the front hull which is basically one huge weakspot for any 200mm+ pen guns. (Lower plate is even weaker)

The agility of the JP II could, in theory, help you avoid being hit at all.

Jagdpanther II has better?

Well it's still twice as much as the JP2. I was disappointed with the 100mm armor on it.

And well, now there's even more reason to get to play Tiger P :D

I dont know, didnt tested Jagdpanther II yet.

But i would like to know how thick is jagdpanthers 2 substructure.

Vandall, on 01 August 2012 - 04:33 PM, said:

It has armor like in Panther II. Much weaker then Ferdi.

I go for JP 2 because i get new td in other patcher..
