{{quote box|[[File:platopanther_2259.png|frame]]}} ''Panther'' was a 3D multiplayer [[First Person Shooter]] tank game for the [[Mainframes and Minicomputers|PLATO Network]], created in 1975 by John Edo Haefeli and Nelson Bridwell. It's an ancestor of [[Atari]]'s ''[[Battlezone 1980 (Video Game)|Battlezone 1980]]''.
 
Players choose one of two teams, Squares and Triangles. Each team member starts near their team's base and sets out to destroy the enemy base. Players message each other to coordinate their actions. Each player has an onboard view like ''Battlezone'', and a map view that shows their team, five mountains, and enemy tanks if they are in range.
