Choosing a Gen 3/3P tube

I'm still waiting to see how the new 12 micron Armasights and the new Pulsar Trail performs but also had a question on selecting a 6x gen 3 dedicated scope.
Someone somewhere told me Gen 3p is better for some reason but can't recall why.
I believe I've seen a white phosphor gen 3 by Night Optics called a Magnus or Gladius that looks like a good scope.
I read about different tubes made by Pinnacle, L3 & others. What makes one tube better than another? Mine would be used on a 204 Ruger so not much recoil.
Also I see some come with spec charts saying something about do many lines per mm or lpm or something like that?
Sorry if it's been beat to death in other there's & if so please send me the right way so I can learn on this stuff until the new thermals get released so I can decide between NV or thermal for these coyotes up here.
Thanks for the help!

You'd have to see the spec sheets to determine which has the best image. As you note the pinnacle tube has a thinner film.
