Panzer III N vs T14 ?
Title.

I'm leaning towards the latter because Germany is full of 3.0's and at 3.7 T14 would boost my line up, but i still can't make up my mind.

A lot of people don’t really care about this, but the Pz III N is a historical vehicle with over 400 made and used 1943+. So if you care about collecting historical vehicles, the Pz III N would be a great vehicle to get.

This is just my opinion, but I want the Pz III N as well, it’s a Pz III M which is already good, but at 3.0 instead of 3.3/3.7. It’s 7.5cm HEAT has 100mm of penetration and it has a very rapid firing gun. I don’t have it or the T14 though, so don’t base your decision on my opinion.

I have the T-14. It soaks up damage like a beast. Some of the best survivability I have ever experienced in a tank. It goes head-on against almost any tank and doesn't get penned. Smart players will know to target certain areas of the turret, but good players aren't at that low of a BR very often. I absolutely recommend the T-14. It helped me grind up the 6.3 range on the US tree.

I have both and while they're both fun, personally my heart lies with the Panzer III N. It's such a cute tank and an absolute monster in a 2.0 game with it's 70mm of frontal armour and 3 second reload.

I mean, theoretically if you’re firing on longer range targets at 1300, 1400m (if you can do that, gl with the short barreled gun (but if you hit, still doesn’t loose pen), also Gaijin is convinced 4/5 maps are CQC urban maps so go if you can actually get site of a tank that far away), if your firing at that distance, the rof is high enough with the muzzle velocity being slow enough that you will be shooting rapidly enough to have 2 7.5cm shells in the air at one time.

DAMN, i'm even more confused now.

Panzer 3 seems both good and a cute chick

T14 seems very strong and is rarely seen in battle

:steamsad:

That's another reason I like it. Its rarity is another reason people don't know how to fight it correctly.

The N in the game doesn't get the spaced armour on the turret though. Seems odd that they would remove it given how the mantlet seems basically the same for both guns. Have to question if that is actually accurate.

Panzer 3 N uses a Panzer 4 turret with Low V 75mm. thats why it doesnt get the same spaced armor

3N is absolutely brutal, basically a 100mm pen HEAT autocannon once its maxed out, T14 can be pretty well armored if you angle it. Basically its a pick between high firepower or high armor, though that said the 3N has pretty good armor for its BR, 20mm of high hardness is worth 25mm.

The Panzer IIIs are actually a reason why I think a more advance armor customization system or whatever should be implemented: almost every Pz III has some with and some without it, some with schürtzen and some without, etc.
Even the Panzer III E was being used in 1944 Normandy, with these upgrades and stuff.

Be wary. The panzer 3 n took a serious nerf.
The t14 is the worst tank in wt,
German t34 is amazing.
Panzer 2 H is amazing.

I don't think you have ever used the T-14. It is very far from the worst tank in WT.

That’s like saying the Tiger E is worse than the Panther A, you’re comparing two great vehicles.

I remember this guy, he thinks literally every single vehicle in the game is underpowered. Personally I think it’s just him, no offense.
