RE: Uber Tanks/ Modern Tanks
Haven't played any modern scenarios with armor for quite some time now. There are very few Allied/Russian tanks within the CS game that can approach Panthers head and expect to survive at normal combat ranges. And that was pretty much the case in the real deal also. And there are positively no tanks that are going to stand up to King Tigers with any real hopes what's so ever. In general most scenarios have been designed with the Allies/Russians having numerical superiority in tanks. With that it is best to mask/hide the movement of your Allied/Russian tanks as best as possible. Terrain permitting of course. Close the distance on those Panthers and King Tigers to minimal range before you make your move/attack on them. That with the hopes of getting those German tanks to either retreat exposing their vunerable back sides or to disrupt them. Do this of course if you have left yourself with enough tanks to fire that have enough action points to take advantage of rear attacks on those German tanks. Or even better to overrun them with an assault if they have been disrupted.
