On the tech tree..Modern Armor is just 2 techs away after the Panzers, given you researched flight before the tech where you get panzer (forgot name).
That really devalues the Panzer even more doesn't it?

Panzer tech--->radio---> then the first modern tech I forgot name--> then the second modern tech is modern armor.
2 techs between panzer and modern armor. Radio and a modern tech forgot name since I am at work now and can't check.

Modern Armor is 3-5 techs away, depending on when you research Flight and Radio(before or after Motorized Transportation).

ok you need one more tech I forgot for the resource.
I guess that makes panzer a little better.

other than the specific number of techs (which has been corrected), your statement assumes that someone playing as the germans would for some godforsaken reason choose to beeline for radio rather than motorized transportation.

Oh, that reminds me of one of my PTW games... three continents, just enough ocean in between to make suicide runs impossible. Naturally, by the modern age, one civ dominated each of the continents. My Legions on one, the Regnum Parthia on another and (sigh) Germania on the other.
I kept the Persians on side, and invaded Germany with (rare for most, nearly unheard of for me) massive naval support. Yes, I did have the tech advantage... but they were advanced enough to have railroads. Anyway... they slowly lost cities to my tanks and (later) Modern Armour, but cavalry + infantry + railroad is no fun to play against, even against the AI. Then came the panzers.
Needless to say, one of my more challenging late-era games.

Suicide Runs are never impossible, all that is needed are some intrepid sailors and lots of galleys. Even Panzers are stopped by Infantry and artillery in sufficient strength and with flight and naval support the conquest should not have been overly complicated.
