Miyamoto Musashi Posted July 11, 2000 Share Posted July 11, 2000 He he... Lately I've been doing a lot of quick battles with Allied infantry against my troops and their almighty Flammpanzers. Sure, the Flamms can be nailed by 'zooks or grenades, but it's pretty exciting to send 6 or 7 of those converted Hetzers into the fray to surround enemy troops and cook them like a Thanksgiving turkey... especially when I purposely set the Allies to outnumber me and I end up getting something like 50 or 60 casualties per Flamm... wow, I love that machine ------------------ In fighting and in everyday life you should be determined though calm. Meet the situation without tenseness yet not recklessly, your spirit settled yet unbiased. An elevated spirit is weak and a low spirit is weak. Do not let the enemy see your spirit. -- M.M.

Eridani Posted July 12, 2000 Share Posted July 12, 2000 Flampanzer? HAH! Try a Churchill Crocodile... 100m range of flame and armored destruction... its a happy thing (If you don't have the pts to spare, take a wasp, "only" 75 meter range... they are fun ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Kije Posted July 12, 2000 Share Posted July 12, 2000 Churchill Crocodile? Pfui! Try the SPW 251/16 flammenwerfer. Short range (50m), but cheap. Best taken in groups of three or more. Their MGs effectively suppress the infantry as you approach and then it's squirt, squirt, squirt....big fun for everybody! Dr. Kije prescribes four to six of these, to be taken at the beginning of every Quick Battle. Lt. Kije Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally love to see frightened hordes of Allied troops running from their positions in the trees as they see the Flammpanzer move up close and personal... ------------------ In fighting and in everyday life you should be determined though calm.

Colin Posted July 13, 2000 Share Posted July 13, 2000 I've become obsessed with the Hummel recently. A 150mm gun make short work of infantry, lightly armored vehicles or guns even if they are dug in. You don't even have to hit them. Armor is a different story but it's not impossible. They are also reletivly fast. Just watch out for mortars. ------------------ And if we abandon any platform, I can assure you it will not be the Macintosh. -Steve My website!

So lately I've been using a StuH assault howitzer... not as fun to watch as the Wespe, but more armored. ------------------ In fighting and in everyday life you should be determined though calm.
