WARNO Commentary: 5th panzer vs 1st armored - What's the worst tank div?

[@Caiddenn]

You probably aren't a miniature games guy, but West German Marder 2s have been winning tournaments recently in World War 3: Team Yankee. High speed, Chobham Armour and autocannons that can effectively penetrate nearly all types of tank side armour make them super deadly.

Cases like these always prompts a certain "Oh this must be overpowered, this can't possibly match reality" response, but I like to imagine that it probably matches reality more than we think.

@@integ3r It's actually a nice breath of fresh air in a scene where previously Warsaw Pact T-72M swarms were dominating the game. The table is 64" by 48" which is a bit too small for a late 80s setting so a common tactic was to smoke the enemy right away and drive the tanks into within missile minimum range and shoot/run their infantry off the table. WG players now counter this by driving their Marder 2s forward and lighting up the enemy side armour.

The warrior should have more armor then the Marder!

Mysterious Player lul. I sure don't recognise that Profile Picture UK SUFFERS gg. 5pz is just bad 2pz as well

[@integ3r]

Agreed, about UK and 2pz. Still I think apache is a decent selling point. I wonder what Mr. Profile Picture thinks about 1st after this little bout.
