The A-44 is excellent as a ramming tank

How am I supposed to effectively use the Super Pershing?

5:03 am, September 11, 2014 Ok, so the super Pershing is a regular Pershing with added on space armor in the front. So naturally it is slower, but still a medium. The armor is mediocre and does fairly well at long ranges. I woul [..] View

A lot of talk about light tanks lately..The fact is..they are very much under-classed because of mediums.
