Panthers on hill

[herroberst]

Agree, the terrain was too close for effective overwatch allowing the T-34s to get too close before engagement and you had a high speed avenue of approach coming right up to the hill without posting any AT
G or infantry there to counter such a move. In such terrain if you decide to want to use the hill maybe consider putting the Panthers behind the hill first posting the hill with units that can observe whats going on then bringing the Panthers out when you locate the main enemy threat. Consider covering all high speed avenues of approach with anti armor weapons of some type.
