What are your favorite units?

[Jim von Krieg]

I think my favorite unit is the T34...

It was the picture on the original East Front box that caught my eye those many years ago... then to watch it race across the battlefield was just awesome... It still inspires me to watch those T34s race everywhere... I am hooked...

T34/41, T34/43, T34/85... I use the first as my suicide drivers to soak up OPFIRE so the 43's can get in close and tear apart an enemy tank gun line... they also help the Russian infantry tear into the German infantry because those 76's deal out some hurt to the ground pounders...

If the scenario has T34/85's, I'm very happy... finally something that can take on a Panther even if it is in close... requires good scouting and nerves of steel, but they can dent that kitty cloak of invincibility...

As the saying goes, quantity has a quality all its own... It'll hurt during the rush to get close, but I love pitting a battalion of T34s against a company of Panthers...

And infantry... I love engineers... remove blocks... destroy tanks... lay smoke... these specialists are real force multipliers...

Regards,

Jim
