Contrary to MoW, which seems to be all about “technology race” (you see a Tiger = you buy a Pershing), you would have to apply different tactics and use 3 or more Shermans or T-34s or a tank assault squad to hunt a Tiger down. You could appreciate the might of the Tiger and the bravery of Sherman tank commanders more. If you wanted a Pershing you would have to play a battle set in 1945.

So for me, eras is a big yes.
In this game, King tigers are ALWAYS targeted by both artillery and tanks. But instead of sending 3 tanks (where 2 of them would die) people simply wear down the King Tiger, before going in for the kill.

I think if we play 1943, Tiger 1 should cost as much as King Tiger, for example. This entire thing would take allot of work, but it would certainly be worth it!
