Which do you enjoy playing more? Pros/Cons?

panzer III was much better, armor, mobility, good selection of guns. The panzer III A has better mobility, but it has absolutely paper armor, which severely hinders it.

Pz III is more or less an upgrade to the Ausf. A. The good thing about the Ausf. A is the fact that it gets better matchmaking. Other than that, the Pz III is better in all aspects.

Not really fair to compare two different tier's, esp parent and child.

PzIIIA is my opportunistic flanker, as it needs to flank to maximize it's usefulness. PzIII is my heavier support tank, which can help heavies push a line as well as drop into the flanker role when need be.

They are both fun to play.

Yeah I really like the PzIII but I think I enjoy the PzIII A a little more due to the mobility and being able to sort of dodge if you will the enemies attempts at killing me. Then getting behind them and taking them out. Pisses a lot of people off. haha

I know I get pissed when it happens to me in my Hetzer which has 0 mobility.

I loves my Ausf A. But you have to think move fast now hide and hit hard later. I can claim a bush and wipe out 3 tanks before anyone even knows whats going on. Then jump out and run. But yeah the paper armor is an issue. I get killed by TDs all the time. Still it builds the skills you need for tanks like the E-50.

Among Tier 3s, I prefer the Luchs for mobility and the 38t for damage.
Among Tier 4s, I prefer Pz 3 for mobility and the Leopard for firepower.
Between Pz 3 and its petite version, I prefer the grown up one.
