those are panthers, it is hard to find pictures of multiple tigers but I happen to have one. Even with PE though how can you spam something that costs 1000 MP?

2 Panther BG call-ins and you have a spam. Nobody said it has to be a 1vs1 game. Even PzIV/Cromwell spamming is more difficult (fuel).

You need to go through a crudload of fuel and MP first though, even without other vehicles and infantry upgrades it is at least 235 fuel and a couple k MP, you would not survive that way and it is something that is kinda earned if you can make it that long especially against soviets 1v1 with PE I have yet to see that day...

when you get to late game panther spam can get ridiculous at times.

Personally I could quite happily have an Ostheer without Panthers, Tigers and Panzer IV's, make some room for things we havn't seen before n that.

But I think buildable Tigers would be an ok idea, provided they were weaker/slower than the Wehr one, and had a unit cap.

Call them "Tiger Ausf. H" or something to signify them as early war tigers, compared to the "Ausf. E" late war ones for the Wehr. Or something.

Cheers

Problem is that those were some of the coolest and best tanks the germans had. There isn't much after that.

The Tiger saw action in the Eastern front for the first time during the battle of Prokhorovka/Kursk, and there were ALOT of them, however, they were all recalled by Hitler to Italy DURING the battle, and hence, the battle was lost for Germany. But really, they only saw action there, and slight "pockets" of them from then on...having 2 Tigers max would be a nice little present :)
