sturmtiger...


Recommended Posts

Also, if you want to only test it in a small scenario (roughly 1k pts or less), you really need to turn the points system to none. A single Sturmtiger is insanely expensive (rare cat) and I remember seeing it with the varying pts system at about 1400 pts for one of them.

If you REALLY need a heavy duty infantry killer with oustanding protection the Brummbars are pricey but very survivable and carry about 30+ 150mm rounds. Far more reasonable than the Sturmtiger.

I must confess though, there is a certain pleasure derived from dismantling a well, laid out defense with a few well placed shots from the Sturmtiger. If you're absolutely insane, you could bankrupt the bank and get a platoon of these leviathans. It'll do more work than a batallion of infantry but it's placing all your eggs in one basket.

Warmaker is so right. Having played around with these bad boys they can be your best asset (182 out 286 kills) :D or your biggest waste (0 kills, tank abandoned and game ended as Allied victory). :(

Balance, young one,always seek balance...and keep in mind that these beasts bog down if your inf has even sweated on parched earth.

Actually, there is documentation of at least one being used during the Warsaw uprising in 1944 as well.
