Default Re: Soviet Tank Battalion 22 June 1941 - 8 May 1945

How do you manage to *not* get wiped when fighting panzers ?

Two ways:

1.) I lay out a thin screen of infantry and AT Guns in front of whatever I'm defending; and I place my tanks in hidden positions.

This makes the Panzers waste their shots on my thin screen; while a few of them get brewed up by the AT Guns.

If there's a danger of a breakthrough; I send my tanks forth and counter it.

2.) Sheer weight of numbers. If you're attacking 4 Panzer IIIs, attack with at least 10~ or more tanks.
