Default RE: HL Tank Scale Speeds, Calculated

As I recall, the Panther, Tiger, Panzer III/IV all ran within a couple of mph of each other...right around 25 mph.  But, that was top speed on the road and generally wasn't sustained because of the wear and tear on the tanks.  Your Tiger's speed is more correct for the upper end of the sustained road speeds in a road march.
