Sherman as good or better than the Panther?

I checked back on my WW2 stats for DS2:

Sherman: Size 3, Armour 2, Slow Tracked, Stealth 0, ECM None, Firecon
Basic, 1 * KEC/3 or KEC/4 in turret, 2 * APSW.

Panther: Size 3, Armour 3, Slow Tracked, Stealth 0, ECM None, Firecon
Basic, 1 * KEC/4 in turret, 2 * APSW.

The Panther has better armour and the Sherman only has as good a main weapon
as the Panther when it represents the Firefly with a 17pdr gun.
Perhaps in retrospect the Sherman should be Size 2 - but that would
actually make it harder to hit.

Sorry, Tom, don't know why you think I rated them the same?

Regards

Mike

On the 27th, I'll be running a large 1/72nd scale SG2 Eastern Front WW2
game. I'll let you know how our conversions work out, since they differ from
those posted by the esteemed Mr.Elliot (who must have been on a fine grade of
American Fiction when he rated the Sherman as good or better than the
Panther...;). I'll maybe post a little AR after the new year along with the
conversions we used.

Have a good holiday all!
