Thin armour (as usual for the Germans in this time frame) but a short 75mm gun that, once mastered (trajectory is tennis ballish) can defeat every tank it faces, although some (Matilda and Char. PzKw.IVd: The workhorse of the early period of the campaign in German WWIIOL.
It's still only a 37mm so it isn't going to do well against Matilda's and Char's. The armour was pretty lousy and the mobility was not as good as their own Pz.III's but the extra penetration of the Czeck gun was a welcome addition to the German arsenal in the very early part of the war. PzKw.38-T: This Czeck designed tank proved to have the best available German light tank gun after they captured the factory in 1940. Easily defeated itself because as with all German tanks of the 1940 period, armour was pretty lousy being thin and employing flat angles everywhere. will also struggle from some angles against the other lighter French tanks, but from good approaches (side and rear) and short range will be capable of defeating them. Can defeat the A13 rather easily, but not the Matilda or Char.B1-bis. Not to be used against other tanks in combat, with the exception beating the Vickers it won't win any tank fights, ever. Much slower then the British Vickers scout tank, it is however much better armoured, with a heavier gun to boot. PzKw.IIc: A light tank which functions as a scout tank. German tier 0 tanks should avoid Matilda's as often as possible. Luckily for the Germans the British have far less Matilda's available to them than the Germans have 88mm FlaK guns, which can kill Matilida's at long ranges.
Only after the 50mm AT gun becomes available does the Matilda become more vulnerable in combat. While the armour can be defeated at point blank range from perpendicular angles (90 degree perfect impacts) to the sides and rear, a lot of the time the sheer overall thickness from most available approaches and range, will just frustrate them. Matilda Mk.II: The German tankers worst nightmare in 1940.

A-13 drivers need to have the element of surprise and then quickly relocate elsewhere to do well. Everything that sees you in an A-13 is going to try and penetrate you, and a bunch of those that try are going to succeed. gun was a good AT gun in 1940, but lacks a high explosive round, making it a pure AT platform. it wouldn't normally even beat a German scout car because while it would be able to penetrate it, the scout car's 20mm cannon would chew up the Vickers tankette with much heavier AP rounds.Ī-13: Typical of the British approach in the early war, this tanks trades armour for speed. Main gun is a Vickers 12.7mm Heavy Machine Gun. Cannot hope to survive combat against ANY German tank. Great infantry support tank if you get a large infantry attack underway. Only expert heavy tankers can be effective in this tank but when they do, it can really turn a battle. The hull 75mm howitzer can kill tanks but it's a bit like playing pool blindfolded due to the rainbow trajectory, and you must turn the entire tank to traverse the gun. Slow like 3 toed sloth on Thanksgiving afternoon. Turret gun similar to S-35 but TONS more armour. Not as slow as the other French tanks.Ĭhar.B1-bis: The slow behemoth. H-39: (considered the n00b anti-tank tank in French ranks since it's gun is better than the R-35) Armour similar to R-35, perhaps slightly inferior if caught red-handed by the lighter 37mm ATG's. Get it in a bundle with the "Sense of Direction, Mk.R-35: (mostly used against infantry or in support of infantry because it's gun is lousy against tanks) Good armour for fending off any ranged attack from German 37mm ATG's, can be defeated by German guns like the PzKw.IVd and StuG.IIIb rather easily. With a stupendous 1,560 HP, a classic, fast-firing 17-pounder gun, and a boatload of shells, this tank is the cornerstone of any defense.
The monstrous war machine is displayed at The Tank Museum and can also take over your Garage. Their first prototype, the TOG I, couldn't compete with modern tank developments, but they developed the concept further into what is today known as the TOG II*. They set out to create a new superheavy tank that could break through fortified enemy lines, and thus the TOG was born. It was led by experienced World War I tank designers and earned a fitting moniker: The Old Gang. Therefore, the British War Office authorized the creation of the Special Vehicle Development Committee of the Ministry of Supply. Was devised under the assumption that the developments of World War II would follow a similar progression to those of World War I.
