    The Panzer looks cool as hell on the battlefield, but it is really quite limited as a UU. The biggest problem is that it comes so late in the tech tree, that the game is often decided by the time you get Industrialism. The other problem is that it only gets a bonus against other tanks, meaning that it is useless unless your opponent has invented and deployed tanks also. Also, its bonus is not enough to make it at all effective against Modern Armor, and it is only moderately effective against Mechanized Infantry, giving it a fairly short shelf-life.

    Therefore, the Panzer is only useful in a very limited number of situations in the end game when you are not too far ahead or behind your opponents in tech. For a modern UU I very much prefer the SEAL, whose passive healing benefit is always useful and is not dependant on an opponent's choice of units or techs.

      To answer the original question, I prefer Frederick: Philo and Creative are both nice traits, while Expansive sorta sux on Maps that are not all Jungles and Flood Plains.
