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.

i prefer fast tanks with strong guns. my gameplay dont need heavy armored tanks.

GER: Jagdpanther: best/fastest tank ingame (i love this tank)
RUS: SU-100: strongest russian gun & fast ... but long reloadingtime
USA: Slugger: strong and fast ... but weak armor
GBR: i hate playing GBR

My Fav tanks would probably be:

GER: King Tiger, it has a huge gun and its got enough armor to withstand alot of hits...atleast on its front. Though it is slow, but thats just a minor detail, the KT isnt meant to move so much.

I hate all Assault guns though, they have no turret traverse and are easily flanked. I like a Tank that can atleast somewhat fire on the move where as a AG has to turn its whole body and what not.

USSR: Probably the KV85, it seems to have a pretty decent gun and it has enough armor to take a few hits. Also it isnt to pricy.

least fav here: T34/76..its gun doesnt seem to be that good and it bounces to much of some of the weirdest stuff

USA: M4A3E2 (76) W Jumbo It has good armor, good gun and it is an all around good tank =D

least fav: any of the stubby 75mm shermans, they are soooo bad vs tanks...isnt tanks is what your sposed to fight tanks w/?

UK: im not a fan of any of the British tanks, except maybe the Firefly or Centurion. I havent played the British enough really to know though

US Shermans weren´t designed to fight against other tanks, they were designed to act as infantry support. Enemy tanks were supposed to be knocked out by US Tank Destroyers and that´s why a Sherman most oftenly ends up burning when meeting a German tank. The 76mm armed Sherman were much better against enemy tanks but its high explosive shells were much weaker than the 75mm dittos. The best thing with the Sherman were that they were easy to drive, maintain and produce in large quantities.
