Timeing for US Tanks

At what point should I save up for Jumbo tanks and with a Slugger so that I can counter German armor? Also, can any AT counter German Tigers sort of the the Brit I think 17 pounder?

in general you want to push, not bank.

US has excellent light vehicles and decent pusher tanks (sherman 76)

infantry though are crucial for this.

Overall, if you push push push with infantry the entire game you won't be seeing tigers at all!

I just get a mix of Rangers/Infantry/AT Infantry and a LOT of artillery, at least 6 mortars, the anti tank guns, and maybe one or two Sherman's. Its pointless to me to get a lot of tanks when in the US campaigns, they always have a shitload of artillery.
