Many factors lead to my choices and I will therefore explain the reasons why I chose the tanks to be of my liking and disliking.
Germany - King Tiger aka KonigsTiger Reasons - Nothing is more menacing than this mean beast that is capable of dominating tank battles for long periods and no one can disagree with that. Armed with a fearsome pak 43 88mm gun, the King Tiger is capable of striking targets with a 95 percent chance of a kill. It hard to find a tank thats capable of matching the battle strength of the King as the King Tiger has got a more durable armour. The flaw of the King is only of its massive weight which is a drag down to its immense power and therefore having such a heavy body armour, speed is effectively decreased. Russia - T-34/85 Reasons - Fast, packing a punch on german tanks this tank is the most upgraded t-34 tank in its series. Armed with an 88mm gun, this tank is capable of sudden strike and after taking out german tanks, it can utilise its speed to escape after an engagement. Overall the design is good with a well made frontal armour, good accuracy and compact shape makes it one of the best tanks in the world and has even entered the hall of fames list. I truly agree that this tank is a saviour to us all just like in air combat, the P-51 mustang. Recommended tank to be used. Worse Tank - IS-3, I consider it as a failure in the Russian tank technology because of its slow reloading time as the gun gets heated up too hot and requires a longer cool down time. Slow in Turret turning. USA - M 18 Hellcat Reasons - The fastest tank in the world capable of topping a world record of 89km/h and don't be surprised that this tank is even faster than any modern day monsters like the Leopard 2A6 and the M1Abrams. Built to destroy german tanks and run away with its speed, this little hunter is right up there among the best ever tank destroyers ever made. However, due to its light armour sacrificed for speed, the Jagd Panther is my favourite tank destroyer. Worse Tank - T-29, I have no idea what this piece of junk is for. Britain - Sherman Firefly Reasons - The 17 pounder anti tank gun is a real fear to all german tank crews and now britain upped its tank technologies by mounting that gun on a fast medium tank called the Sherman Tank. Wise choice and using this mean machine is capable of delighting you. Able to engage Tigers and Panthers at long distances, this tank is a nasty enemy to be faced against. Famous for destroying the greatest tank commander in history, Michael Wittman on his Tiger, we should not underestimate this tank. Worse Tank - A39 Turtle, same reasons with the T-29 All in all, there all many great tanks out there but I've come to my final verdict and I have decided my favourite tank is the King Tiger due to its immense power and strength. If only Germany managed to hang onto its resource plants, the King Tiger armour material will not be reduced in terms of quality. Last edited by hyperboy8000; 08-01-2009 at 08:00 AM. |

You all may find this funny, but I have been real lucky with the SU76 against assault guns. The german tiger protected and sitting back with an infantry screen. The SU is fast and can flank enemies. The tiger well its a tiger a hidden sniper allows it to do what it was intended to do. As much as I love the panther if you use the tiger correct it is very potent. Still working with the allied tanks and for now I will say I like the matilda for brits (told you you would find it funny) verdict is still out on american tanks

I like heavy hitters, so panther and firefly are the best for me. Both have excelent penetration values while having a good speed. Panther also has the benefit from a strong armor.
Both of this tanks pair with a officer/sniper + manual targeting can lay waste to most of the tanks out there. |

my favorite is Tiger 1. But what i hate most are JS 3, centurion, and those experimental, they werent used in the entire ww2. If they Americans can have T-29 then the germans should have maus. And there were just 20 pershings in all Europe before the war ended and just one was destroyed

The IS-3 may have been used in Berlin, but I know it was paraded down its streets after the battle was over.
My favorite, however, is the T-34. I would give it atleast a above average for its speed, turrent turning speed, and reload speed. It is easy to produce and cheap. My least favorite tank is the KV-2. It is too slow in everything. It has excellent armor, and fires a 152mm round. |
