Sabot6 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I'll be playing a QB and will be on the defensive, and I'm trying to figure out what to do with my last ~75 points to bolster my AT capabilities. Would purchasing a Schreck team be a better solution than a Pak38, or would the Pak38 be the way to go? Thanks in advance! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpabrams Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I rarely if ever use AT guns. They are just too vulnerable. I would go with the Schrek. It's mobile and deadly, especially when in the bocage. Just make sure to use cover and set your arcs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanir Ausf B Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I don't have the game in front of me so I can't be sure of the unit points, but IIRC you could buy 2 Schrecks with 75 points, correct? It really depends on the map with regards to size and terrain and expected enemy force composition. Assuming it is a typical CMx2 QB, i.e. company-sized cage match fought on a tiny square of land with "Mixed" force-type, 2 Schrecks would likely be of more use than one 50mm gun. Even if you can only buy 1 Schreck it may be a better choice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJFHutch Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I would go with the shrecks also, however for an open battle the 38 might be better due to range - then again the 38 probably can't do a whole lot of damage compared to the shrecks ... I'd buy shrecks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sburke Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 What are your terrain conditions? Generally I prefer any mobile AT capability over an ATG, but for long distance striking power, having one of the keyholed on a critical location can also make a nice shocking surprise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
womble Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 It's worth bearing in mind that your 50mm will probably need either very close range or a flank shot to be able to discommode a Sherman. If you're going to be able to arrange those for the PaK38, you'll probably be able to do it for a Shreck too, and you're, I think, more likely to get a kill from a Shreck hit than a 50mm AP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
