Re: Tigers
Even the humble Stuarts can hurt a lot of German stuff, if they manage to get flank shots. It is the return fire that they have trouble handling.
A couple of my Stuarts once had a close range encounter with a lonely Panther (ausf D probably) that emerged from behind some buildings and exposed its flank. After a shot or two of op-fire, the Panther ended up being immobilised, with the crew too surprised to provide any effective return fire. However, as my turn started, I decided that it was safer for the Stuarts to pull back to safety and call for reinforcements before the Panther crew realised what was going on.
