Take the Jumbo out, give Germans Tiger 1, give allies Firefly, give allies bazooka, give Germans Panzerfaust, give 75-76mm anti tank guns to engineers both sides(Ordnance 17 pdr, 75mm pak40)
I’m thinking Tiger 1 vs Firefly is kind of even. I’m not sure, but I think both can pen each other from the front. The Tiger 1 has pretty badly place ammo racks, so I wouldn’t doubt it gets 1 shot at times. I don’t think the Panther sloped front can be penned by the Firefly, but not sure, which is why I’m thinking Tiger 1.
If you don’t use your 80mms of frontal armor against a shell that can only go through 92mm of armor then I’m sorry that you failed to actually use your brain
Ok so you want me to hit a gun port with my Sturmpistol from 250m? That’s hard even with a panzerfaust. Not to mention it won’t knock more than 1 crew member out. What a joke
Well I take it back. Looks like they gave them Panthers after all. And I had that kind of luck to be one of the first to see some of them… oh boy. Now I see the same thing ~4 months ago but all the way around for the allies this time. Two Panthers poped out everybody started to panic lol. Our poor Jumbos and other tanks didn’t have a chance.

Panther is a pure shit against 54mm+ armored tanks. Since i’m Berlin main player with M4A2 i saying it with a clean soul
They can’t penetrate a damn T-34. So jumbos are safe
That’s Berlin and I agree that Panther G is worse than T34-85 but this is Normandy. US gets M10 but that thing has weaker armour than Panther A. If you mess up with a shot and he spots you… adios.
Weaker ?
Only hull one. And 51mm is pretty fine against panther shitcannon.
Well, if not M10, we still have jumbos, they are invulnerable for the panther. And panther is 1shotable by 75-76mm cannons
So, panther is not a serious danger at all for the allies. And, btw, PIAT have 88mm piercing. Panthers hull - 80… )
I just had a game where two Panthers obliterated Jumbos. From front. While our Jumbos were bouncing. Those two Panthers pushed us back in our spawn… coulnd’t do sh*te.
Won’t believe before seeing this, will get panther in a few days and test
Panther cannon have no InTank effect, it feels like they don’t have any explosive inside ammo at all. So they rarely eliminating tanks by 1 shot, and 90mm T34 turret is full red and invulnerable for Panthers.
So idk how they destroying jumbos, only if in a lower mech-part
Well I don’t know. Don’t know about skills of those Jumbos that I had on my team. Don’t have the Jumbo yet. Might buy that premium one only cuz it has APCR. I only know that we got owned mostly because of those two Panthers A.
Well, i’ll check it soon. I love panther actually, even maxed out my G one in a berlin. But it is a shit even against T-34, so don’t see it destroying, well, Jumbos>

Ok just to make it clear for you, The German did have Tiger tank in Normandy, it was AXIS VS ALLIES which mean it is not actually USA VS Germany, becasue there was PIAT in allies weapon inventory, the American did not face tiger in normandy does not mean Germany did not use tiger in Normandy, get waht I mean? so yes Tiger are already in Normandy
please look at the squads themselves (not i’m not including premium squads since firefly and churchill wasn’t in the game at this time) and you will find that they are all AMERICANS and GERMANS so calling normandy “AMERICA VS GERMANY” is more accurate because of the squads themselves.
in the hands of an AMERICAN soldiers not British nor Canadian soldiers. there has been requsts on this forum to change the PIAT for that reason.
only the british faced them which is what i’m aware of
if you mean by in game then yeah i’m aware i’ve already maxed out normandy both sides again since this topic was 8 MONTHS OLD
Wait the Americans never even faced Tigers? That’s fascinating especially considering their love for ‘muh normandy beaches’ movies and games where they take on Tigers.
