Right now tank tree have only one 1945 tank designe the medium ( MBT) tank.
Heavy and super heavy ends in 1943 and light tank in 1941.
I know that at times of cold war MBT ruled but even then there was some project of heavy tanks (even now from time to time there are voices to create tank with 155mm cannon), and light tanks still existed in limited numeber also LT evolved into things like Striker or BMP-1.
Even if we go by historical time frame there is whole German E series.
I beliave that Paradox wants players to chose how they want to play game and gives them choices, but tank tree will make a lot of players limit they choices to medium tanks.
My resoning:
1.When you are limiting whole tank tree in 1945 to one tank it will make a lot of players feeal that from the beging of the game they need to go into medium tanks or they will be left behind in late years especialy in multi.
2. I belive that there will be two filozofies about producing tanks in the game
First- change tank production with evry new model
Second - to skip on design and keep produciing until you research next one.
And here is the problem for heavy tanks we have three models 1934,1941,1943, that means i cant mass produce model 1941 and skip 1943 to produce 1945 but im musted to jump as fast as i can into 1943 so i can fully upgrade it and use small window before medium from 1945 will start coming in big numbers.
In this situation production strategy becomes limited.
3. Light tanks end in 1941 that means they are completly obsolete in 1945 it practiicaly makes model 1941 much less worth it becouse why resarch and produce light tanks part of the tree when it will be completly obsolete in 1945.
In hoi4 we wont have armored cars that were suporting motorisated and mecanisaited divisions in hoi3 (and world war 2 German divisions) that means if we will want to reinforce MOT and MECH div we will most likly use tank batalion, in this situation there is big chance that player will use LT that will be retired from armored div.
It means that MOT and MECH divs will surfer most in 1945 becouse of lack of cheap modern fire suprt vechicle (LT, TD, SPA) that will be able to not slow them down.
Its long but it all comes to one thing Parradox i ask you ad to game at least 1945 Light tanks and heavy tanks so we will have choices in late game, becouse i believe your filosofy in HOI4 is to give players choises.
Ps: I also belive that we need 1944 Battelcruisers (Alaska) to be couter for carries in the late game.
