Tiger and Normandy

well basically, if we counter in “special ammo” I could even argue that a Panther can be a Tiger II counter, because its “tungsten” ammo also had almost 200mm of penetration.

I mean, yeah. That’s basically it. And seeing as the comet is literally the best tank that could be added without breaking immersion with 76mm jumbos, I’d say ‘special’ ammo types are a good idea to make it more viable as a tiger 2 counter.

@GeneralBrus

Then again, knowing about how these AP rounds work in warthunder, they would most likely perform pretty bad.

Yeah, that needs fixing in both games. It’s unrealistic and worsens gameplay quality.

The only viable choice for the allies that I see is to add the Firefly to the campaign tree or keep using their superior attacker planes to deal with that.

A hellcat would be nice to see as well, and as i said before, a comet.
I’d also like to see a cromwell as a lower level unlock (no real reson, just feel like it’d be cool and unique).
Or if we want to embrace assymetrical balance, than just make the Tiger 2 counter be a Tempest with 2x1000pound bombs.

Comet didn’t took part in Normandy. It barely even took part in WW2 at all to be honest. Pretty much the same situation as with Pershing.

Darkflow could implement a “Germany 1945” campaign one day where we could see these tanks in maps like Cologne. Otherwise I doubt we would see these vehicles even in a Battle of the Bulge campaign.

I suspect the final additions for Normandy one day will be 76mm Jumbo & Kingtiger. And that considering that even the 75mm Jumbo never took part in Normandy - but first units came to the front like 1 month later.

Nailed it.
