most will choose german heavy tanks, yes there tough, but we all know that, i somehow Love the 'funny' tank series, flame thrower crocodiles,and AVRE's are just a delight in mass murder at close range.
ATG's, shrecks and tanks over 60M do murder them, but in bockage country, i love them, fireflys are hard notto pick if there there, but in most ccv type maps, if a avre and croc are there(not on beaches) ill enjoy trying to take on tigers and panthers, and howl with delight when i burn or blast those suckers to hade's....drowl.....

opinions?

ps. wish i still had indirect fire avre :O( to 150M be nice lol...

yes gjs was like cc6 for me.

but cc6 will become a reality some day.

like the song says "don't know when, don't know where"

love the AVRE.

but for german tanks, gonna love the command VG panther dont you? i had 3 flys and a 6lb hitting one sideways, it smoked them all.....(was all under 200M) picked them off 1 at a time, as casual as can be. terrifying stuff.

now if i had a croc and avre sneak up its side flank that i had on it, i could of poped a fucken big HE near it, immob, then diversion opposite, then send in the burner boys...PSHHHHHHH..........PSHHHHHHHH......BOOM

If ever the remains (or whatever they call it) of Atomic do another CC, they just have to name it CC7!

Wink

Ye, Panther is ofcause a nasty tank...
I may have to express two views,
1. As a CC Commander I like the AVRE.
2. If I would have to shose to be in a tank in Normandy my self 1944, it would have been the Panther.

Although I've never used one as I always have force strength on "vet" those churchill crocodiles are great. The thought of infantry fleeing in terror or on fire makes me smile (sadistically). And those spigot mortars are devistating.

My most favourite thing is killing enemy heavy tanks with PIATs. Nothing is more demoralising for an opponent for the best weapon to be nailed by the crappiest. Smile

I'm not so sure about the AVRE - I prefer the Centaur!

I'd like to prefer Panther G. In H2H games, my exchange rate is at least 1 to 3.

Yap, Centaur would be my choice. It's powerful and also quicker with loading and moving... Twisted Evil

Carrying the PIAT was not a happy task being heavy and dangerous. A lot of accidents occurred with the PIAT and it was considered dangerous such that after the war although maintained as the primary anti-tank weapon for infantry it was very restricted in its issue.

Although I've had a few gloriously nerve-wracking PIAT kills, generally they suck.

Back to topic, Firefly tank for Allies obviously, the gun is the best. AVRE makes a great explosion but you have to almost park on the enemy victim to get a shot.

I take that sort of thing is very rare? Because a panther getting flank attacked by three FF's and an six pound ATG, should mean one dead cat.

I'd like to make a case for the german Marder III.. Artillery on wheels I'd say.

They are fine for ambushing allied tanks from far far away. Take a few shots and then regroup and let your opponent waste thier mortars and airstrikes on the position you fired from. When they dare to advance again repeat from your new position. A cannon would be flanked or destroyed by mortar fire, but the marder just vanishes Smile

Of course you can use other tanks in the germans arsenal in the same role but having a few marders frees up your other tanks for close and personal infantry support.

Prof has used Marders on me with greater effect than anything else, the little toe rag! My poor Fireflies and Churchills.

Not strictly a tank, but my choice isn't either, because I say StuGs are probably my favourite vehicle, despite not having a turret to traverse etc. I just find them incredibly "cool" for some reason.

And of course there's Panthers.

Yesterday my tanks (sherman, firefly) were up against enemy tigers and for sake they had problems to destroy them. I must rather think to damage them and hope Germans dont rapair them to get them through to next days. Only firefly was able to destroy tiger but from close distance. scarry to think that pc can win with me Wink

Wow to destroy one of tiger tanks, my soldiers fired 12 piat granade ( some miss the target) and around 14 shots from sherman croc Surprised

enemy didnt respond becouse of no clear shot and exhausted fuel. Tigers are powerfull, and i think best tanks in CC5 Gold,Juno,Sword. Here i want to pay tribute to those soldiers (Americans, British, Canadians, Australia, Poland) who fought in France during WWII for our freedom. I admire someone who can seat in Sherman when combat against Tiger or Panther!

The tigers are tough but in GJS I found them to be a big let down. For one, you only get a couple of them. The best to combat Tigers is to disable or damage them then back off. The casualty system of CC will remove the tank if damaged enough. If the BG is cut off, an immobilized (due to fire not gas) tiger will be lost after the battle.

My favorite German tank is the panther. You get lots of them, and they are powerful creatures. thier only nemesis is the 17pdr ATG and Firefly tanks.

The Stuart. I've been able to utterly rout forces with it. Chews through infantry like a cow through grass. Get to the side or rear of a Big Cat and it'll fuck them as well. I almost felt sorry for the Tiger that it caught by surprise on Hottot.

It's fast, small and nimble. Terrific little tank.

The way they've performed across CC5 original and the Okinawa mod as well, they are my Medal of Honour machines.

This one gutted it's way through German infantry all through the Grand Campaign of CC5.
