Actualy, it's just 84 extra health

I do love my Retarded Tiger, it's a pretty junk tanks and even knowing how to use it properly(click point 1 and expect kills, will get no results, and it dead) my P4's still out perfrom the tiger in most games, and I have 4 P4's to cycle through.

The only reason I don;t have a solid line of 4 vet 3 P4's is because i throw them into the fight all the time, but I've probably had 40+ vet 2 and higher P4's, I've still only got 1 vet 2 tiger.


I would absolutely love speed as a veterancy bonus, that and a way to decrease the Moving accuracy multiplier. it's the # 1 reason why the tiger is junk to begin with because it can't hit anything if you have to move.

1600/0.95 = 1684.something

Except that a churchill's reaction to enemy goes something like this:

"Hey joe bloggins, Churchill here."
"ok mate, i'll send a pak"

and the Tiger's reaction in most enemies is
"mother fucker, he still has a tiger!"

[Akranadas]

Pretty much Brn.

Unless its a churchill croc, in which case its something like "akjfeawfijoiwajfwa its a fucking croc run!"

[Mysthalin]

I was reffering to the churchill being useless just like the tiger -.-

Why exactly does a pak have 0.48 base penetration vs it? considering a 57 has 0.35 vs a tiger, and the churchill is "theorethically" more armored than a tiger and it's sole purpose of existance in this world is to deflect shells?

[Akranadas]

The Tiger carries with it the Physiological impact to the opposing team: meaning most players go "OHNOES!TIGER, WE"RE DOOMEDED!" and then they attempt to throw everything they can at the thing, getting all their forces killed by the Tigers support.

No Allied Tanks (besides maybe the Pershing) can create that type of behaviour, Tiger/King Tiger/Jadgpanther are more use to making the enemy make mistakes then they are at actually killing things. Making your enemy attack your lines in desperate attempts to kill one unit is worth every piece of population.

[UnLimiTeD]

Get a sniper.

[Akranadas]

Snipers do the exact same thing. You play in a game, shot maybe 1 or 2 guys and then move him off the front line, You watch your enemy go almost insane with their determination to kill him, which you can exploit.

[bbsmith]

The reason why tigers don't get much use is because the other team throws everything they have to kill it. I don't really think that its because the tiger is useless.

No wonder you always lose lol.
You can use the same counter you use against the PanzerIV against Tigers.
I.e all it really takes is one ATG to scare a tiger off.

[Akranadas]

I lose because I run out of AT trying to counter halftracks and PIVs.

Brits only have 3 Main AT options; 6 Pounder, PIATs, Firefly.

[Demon767]

and bren piats and piats bang bus with bren button

bren button is more of a defensive thing you wont encuonter it unless the axis charges you and you already have some at.

Americans rely primarily on ATGs even more.

[Akranadas]

Yeah. but their ATGs provide armour to their crews and don't get decrewed as easy :\

so do 6pdr's and at least 6pdr's can cloak (its all i use in my ami account <3)

Tigers are nasty, especially with certain upgrades. Like Brn said, you move it around the field and allow the support to kill stuff and kinda like the tiger "finish" things you know? Tigers are deadly, which is why when we see 'em we try to kill it asap. A lot of axis players like to bring on schrecks and stuff and take out as many at guns as possible and then bring out tigers and panther and kt's.

but yea...to the churchill reference, that's usually my reaction, especially with brn4me my games vs him usually go like this...

"mother fuck, another p4!!!"

10 minutes later

"@#^%@#%@# a tiger!!!! That's just not fair, i'm out of at!!! Ruuuunn back cap back cap something, just run!"

[Nevyen]

just got my tier 4 german steel, stugs and p4's now have allot of staying power

[Mysthalin]

6 pdrs do not have any cover on them, tym.
