Company of Heroes 3 Best Medium Tank Ranked (CoH3)

[@strategydux]

We are starting strong with unit comparison. First unit we will compare in CoH3 are tanks! Results might surprise you but they might also give you insight on how to use tanks properly also...

[@jimboniusmaximus6018]

Side/rear armor, movement speed and turret rotation speed are also important to consider. Most tanks are not going to square off face to face and shoot each other. They might have strength in their ability to out maneuver the other tank.

[@strategydux]

All of these tanks have close enough manoeuvrability that they cant out run each other. With regards to side armor it is not enough for any tank to bounce of rounds. You often get hit to the side even when facing enemy frontal with somewhat angles. But turret speed can be added. But to be honest if some1 is using his tank properly he might win with Grand vs Panther if he combined arms :D

[@RTUK1]

You keep calling it a Grand, its a Grant

[@strategydux]

@@RTUK1 well based on my pronunciation we are lucky he is not called Ulysses :D hahaha

[@jacktaylor6135]

Love the work

[@strategydux]

Thanks buddy

[@TigerBaron]

Just a note here but technically the Panther would probably be again the best medium tank if it was counted as such here like it was in the previous games.

[@strategydux]

probably, Panther just lacks any capacity to fight infantry but against tank it might be even better than tiger tank :D could be interesting to see

[@TigerBaron]

@@strategydux Has the most frontal armor as well from what I remember, maybe even more than the Black Prince.

[@Miratesus]

Yeah the Germans did see it as a medium tank. 😁

[@strategydux]

@@Miratesus yea they did but in game it is Heavy tank classification so we went with that

[@StrategyRTS-ti1vc]

Great video thank you man :D pls test Heavy tanks

[@strategydux]

Hey thanks man. check up Tiger Deep dive :D

[@Raposa234]

You should also compare the manpower and fuel to a better analysis, it makes a huge difference in game.

[@strategydux]

It does but this was flat comparison :) Check out Tiger Deep Dive video there we used all data for comparison reference

[@Dreyer888]

Best AT infantry next =)

[@strategydux]

Already in preparation :D testing should be done today and will take 2-3 days to finalize the video :D thanks for the request bro

[@PandaWarriorTT]

should have done it with out the 76mm gun for the US and you have to hard tech into that.

[@strategydux]

Yea but if you have an option to tech it and have the best sherman option I have to make it a viable option in the rankings :D

[@PandaWarriorTT]

@@strategydux if the only objective was to find the best, then i guess it's the way to go. Did you do the armor upgrades for USF?

[@strategydux]

@@PandaWarriorTT Yea did full upgrade for every tank :D

[@AlexLee-je5jg]

You should also compare tanks like crusader AA and panthers too since they are also medium tanks and like easy 8, is a battlegroup call in.

[@strategydux]

Panthera is classified as Heavy tank actually in CoH3. And AA tanks will probably be separate category as they are AA tanks not mediums:D

[@AlexLee-je5jg]

@@strategydux do test dak marder vs wehr marder and dak tiger vs wehr tiger

[@strategydux]

They pretty much the same no special love was given sadly

[@ArresChang]

no consideration of their price or their accessability from the tech tree?

[@strategydux]

nope same way that we have tank from commander as well. It is a comparison of performance not cheapness

[@strange6973]

Well, really you should be taking _price performance_ into consideration. How does the Easy 8 stack up to the Panzer IV when all the manpower is spent. Because, if you're playing well, it's about how effectively you're spending your resources

[@strategydux]

@@strange6973 hey bro. Follow up video coming with deep dives for certain tanks and we will touch on that as well :)

[@strange6973]

@@strategydux Looking forward to it ;)

[@strategydux]

@@strange6973 don't forget to sub to get notifications. But in a meanwhile check infantry comparison and AT infantry it is in depth as you suggested

[@swiezak018]

why you dont give information about unit cost ? ? ? ?

[@strategydux]

Yoyoy Thanks for comment :) Decided not as we did a pure comparison based on performance not cost efficiency. But to be honest costs are widely different. Germans can skip whole tiers and Brits for Example can not and that makes a big difference in costs :D

[@DavidZhoushutup]

This doesn’t take into consideration all the buffs that panzer III gets from DAK upgrades

[@strategydux]

His upgrades jist buff his utility on the field not his performance in battle

[@DavidZhoushutup]

The vehicle upgrades give health to all vehicles no?

[@DavidZhoushutup]

The upgrades that increase Carro hp also increase panzer III hp no?

[@DavidZhoushutup]

Additionally doesn’t tungsten core munition increase penetration of the DAK rounds?

[@strategydux]

@@DavidZhoushutup special ammo does give it icreased penetration and against Sherman's without armor upgrade does 22 more dmg but against fully upgraded Sherman it still does same dmg so it loses to it because of lower hp :)

[@maximus5668]

And the Panther? is technically a medium tank.

[@strategydux]

Should be but in game it is heavy tank classification that js why it is not here :)

[@calvin6429]

how bout best infantry in coh3

[@strategydux]

In preparation will be up in 2-4 days

[@pqfire0950]

Kinda weird that they all have the same damage

[@strategydux]

Yea the weirdest part hahah I expected at least crusader to have lower

[@kidgameerboy9932]

I think it’s to avoid the craziness of coh2 with certain tanks doing insane damage and having high armor while tanks like the t34 could never get even 1 pen even in the rear

[@strategydux]

@@kidgameerboy9932 yea might be but as it looks coh3 is balanced around than reload timer mostly

[@rhythmmandal3377]

@@kidgameerboy9932 All mediums in coh2 had the same damage of 160, even the Panther had a damage of 160.

[@Chris.M]

Very shallow review, just face to face 1v1s are considered

[@strategydux]

Yes prices are almost same not a huge difference. Deep dive for tanks is coming where we will take costs in consideration as well as other aspects which are different
