Why not? TD's with turrets have a slower traverse speed which coupled with their lower HP seems pretty fair that they're better at staying unseen.

Like a sniper. Relying on stealth and a strong gun for protection instead of armor and the latter.

How you expect the community to play the role is not the same as how the community really plays the role.

I don't know how else one would use a turreted tank destroyer. That's how I, and everyone I know used it. Using a TD like a regular tank is idiotic.

Which makes the majority of the people I faced idiotic. Do you see what I'm getting at?

Regardless. They shouldn't change the tank bonus.

They should, so that people are forced to play more tactfully with their newly limited camouflage instead of trying to be medium tanks.

Medium tanks don't typically stick in cover. Tank destroyers have very limited armor and traverse. Stealth is the only real defense they have.

I should point out that TD's still have a camo bonus, similar to light tanks. The thing they nerfed was the shooting through concealment bonus they got. It used to be that when a TD fired through concealment they kept the camo bonus. This caused everyone else to become very angry because all you had to do in a TD was camp in a forest or a bush and you could pretty much destroy anything you spotted and they would never see you.

They got rid of that bonus that TD's had because it was unfair and promoted camping. Now TD's can't fire from bushes and remain unseen. However if you back up to the point where the bush is no longer see through, you still won't be seen. This goes for all tanks not just TDs.

Read about Girls und Panzer: Ribbon Warrior yesterday.

Apparently (according to the wikia at least) Anchovy, Pepperoni, and Carpaccio will be making an appearance.

Now imagine trying to shoot that little thing, which is smaller than the average person, while it's going 25 km/h, and armed with a 37 mm gun.

Why would I try to shoot at it while it's moving? I'd just wait for it to stop, then start shooting at it, or catch up to it since the Tetrach's faster.

It's not like it could shoot and fire accurately.

Assuming they get in a close enough range to fire at one another, the L3 with a 37 mm gun (or even the 20 mm Solothurn) would just as easily take out a Tetrach as the other way around. It's smaller profile and speed (which may not be as impressive as the Tetrach's but is still enough to make it nimble) would make it hard to hit.

Would be hard to dodge 500+ rounds per minute with each one capable of penetrating though.

600rpm if you have a Dushka, but Dushka's are less accurate than M2HB's.
