  1. i think we are discussing different terms.... if you compare the tanks in an 1 on 1 combat, the german tanks (especially in the early days of war) are worst than the russian or allied tanks.... but.... the leadership and the organisation of the germans made the german tanks nearly unbeatable...

  3. when i asked veterans, they allways told me, that the tank-crews were more than happy, when they could drive a captured t34 for example... and if i could choose, if i wanted more armour arround me or some fine chairs.... i think the decision is clear!! but you are right when you say armour and firepower is not all.... if it were, the germans would not have marched through whole europe.... the thing that made the german panzerwaffe so strong, was the very good organisation... and that includes (as what you say) radio in every tank, the drill of the crews and of course the strategy and the tactics how these tanks were used!!

  5. @commi 18 and this is simply not true!!! the german tanks , especially in the early days of war, were even worst than the tanks of other armies!! for example the french char de bataille could not be destroyed by the weak german pzIII with its 50mm kwk!! (the panzerIII was the german main battle-tank in the western campaign) on the eastern theatre, there was the t34 which had much more armour and firepower, than the pzIII and IV!!! the advantage and the superiority of the german armies was the fact, that they used the panzerwaffe as weapon, which can fight on its own... the germans had whole divisions just with tanks and motorised unf, so they could move fast and strike hard!! the allieds used their tanks as support-weapon for the inf.... in the later days of the war, the german tanks became better... the panzerV (panther) with its long 75mm gun could switch off a t34 at a range of 2000m... the panzerVI (tiger) then had an 88mm gun... this could destroy nearly every allied tank... after that, came the king tiger.... also with an 88 gun, but with more armour than the tigerI!! the main prob of the german panzerwaffe were the motorisation... in every tank-class, the motor was too weak to move the tank right!! sorry, i can`t describe this all in a better way, `cause of my english...

  7. hit & destroyed..... ...but i don´t think, a&a is that bad you say.... i had a lot of fun with this simple game.... even in mp-games!! the main difference, i think, is the possibility of practicing some operational warfare `cause of the hex-field structure.... sc will be a great game.... i feel that!! so... waiting waiting waiting
  8. sure, i get full screen.... but i asked for the differences to axies & allies!!!??? :confused:
  9. i played the demo a lot in the past few days and it seems to be a great game.... but it reminds me on "axis & allies".... in the demo-version, i can´t find many features, different from a&a... i hope there will be more in the full-version of SC !!??
  10. it seems, that the subs can be seen by land-troops as well!! so they are "dog-food" for the air-force!!!
  11. gott was bin ich froh.... mein schul-englisch ist doch schon etwas älteren kalibers... ich schau jetzt mal auf den link... ich dank dir schonmal!!!
  12. sorry, but i do not exactly know, what you said.... my english is not that good (i come from germany, did i still say that?? ) if you wanted to tell me, that i can pre-order the game, i must tell you, that there is still one prob: i have no credit-card....
  13. i can´t await..... *bibber* hope, there will be a way to get it to germany also very, very soon.....
