Tank range attack

Quick question, why is it the panther and tiger tanks (along with others as well) have no range advantage ( shoot 2 hexes). This was one of the biggest advantages they had besides bigger guns they could kill from distances allied tanks could not. I played pg1 2 and 3 so not a newbie to this format of games.

They have range advantage, expressed in much higher initiative rating. Considering hex size (>10 km), they could never shoot across 2 hexes.

So you changed it in PzC by increasing the initiative rating rather then give it more range for realism. Ok that work for me didn't know each hex represented 10k thanks.

Maybe your hexes are 10km! ;)
