This mod also works with Company of Heroes and/or Tales of Valor. Opposing Fronts is not required! There are many features that I added, for example: - a much more realistic Weapon damage system - many new skins for infantry and tanks (and wrecks) also including many of my own made tank skins - many new units for all factions - modified and enlarged Commander Trees (now 16 Upgrades!) - new abilities - new sounds - recommended new maps included

Description
This is the Panzer IV Ausf.D. It`s one of the early Pz4 variants with 75mm short barrel KwK. It will be placed somewhere within the WM doctrines

whats the diffrence from the other ones
Look at the back of the turret
It has about 20mm less frontal armor than the Ausf.E and will be cheaper... and as commieturtle mentioned a different turret.
I noticed that In game the frontal armour gets damaged even by fire from a American maxon 4x 50 cal.
k thank for the reply
Pherhaps a PzKmpfw III soon? =D
...cool but i thought is was the Panzer III
The panzer III chassis had 6 road wheels. The IV had 8.
you can easely see the doiffrence between the pz 3 and 4 look at the top guide whells on the tracks the pz 4 has 4 and pz 3 has 3 :P
PS: do not change the skin or there will be consequencs! ;)
Actually, that is not entirely correct. The best way to distinguish Panzer III and Panzer IV is the number of road wheels (8 versus 6), not the return rollers. This is because the Ausf. J version of the Panzer IV actually had only 3 return rollers, so by that logic it would be a Panzer III. Just my $0.02 on the matter.
are you sure its the aufs J version i looke dta soem pics and it has 8 road whells and 4 return like any panzer 4 out there :P

Weren't these extremely rare in Normandy?

Yes, the Panzer Grey was mainly used during the Blitzkrieg but towards the end of the war some tanks were sent straight to the front as soon as they got out of the factory and as a result many broke down.
Wasn't so much talking about the panzergrau as i was the Ausf. d :P
the mod is called blitkrieg and i know the devs ahve this diea of a late war france scenarion but as far as i care this mod could be about late wwar earyl and have any units and factions
PzIII J. anybody? lol i want it in this game xD would be pretty fun fast tank decently xD
It would be great to have a fast cheap early game German light tank, like the Pz.III, with which to combat Stuarts, Daimlers, Chaffees, M8's and Allied heavy weapon halftracks, as well as early Shermans. I find that German halftracks and armored cars are way too easily taken out, or disabled by infantry and light artillery weapons and often lack proper armor piercing capability. The early Pz.IV's are effective against weapon crews and infantry, but are slow, vulnerable and not very effective against armored targets. For those who oppose the Pz.III's inclusion in late war mods, I would like to remind them that in the late war stages, the 20mm armed Luchs versions (Pz.II and III) were used in a reconnaissance role and 50mm armed N versions where attached to ALL heavy Tiger tank battalions.
My apologies... the Pz.III N version had the short barrelled 75mm gun and the 20mm Luchs was a Pz.II variant only. This would mean that the Pz.III N would have the same weapon characteristics as the Pz.IV D & E versions, but it would probably be faster and definitely better armored.
Panzer vor!
