Re: The Tiger Tank was...(Score: 1) by mad2physicist on Sun Aug 03, 2008 8:46 am (User Info | Send a Message)
I voted distinguished, but really, it is also overrated. After all it was a really good tank. But in many ways it was badly designed for all the resources that went into it. After all, the Panther tank had better front protection and better penetration while only being a medium tank!
The tiger was still superior to anything the Western allies would ever field, and Russia too until late war. The problem is, the Tiger didn't take into account the design lessons the Germans used on the Panther. So, the Tiger was good because it was a big steel box; the Panther was good because the design was elegant.
Thus I would go with distinguished, because it was good, but not impeccable, because it was still very flawed.
In August of 2004, Zappi, Homba, Bambam887, RedScorpion and MOOXE all pitched
in to create this Close Combat site. I would to thank all the people who have visited
and found this site to thier liking. I hope you had time to check out some
of the great Close Combat mods and our forums. I'd also like to thank
all the members of our volunteer staff that have helped over
the years, and all our users that contributed to this site!
