Worst units to deal with

[A&A Member]

Sometimes my opponents uses newer units to my disadvantage. My A&A Minis set ends pretty much at Set II. When I use a King Tiger in my army, I get pummeled by 2 T-34/76, and a KV-1.

Axis: King Tiger, 88mm flak 36, Tiger 1

Allies: Variants of the T-34, Sherman swarms

My opponents always bring out the big Soviet tanks and the big German tanks. The only way I have countered the German tanks was a para bomb type build that I call Death from Above but then I don't get to play hardly any of my other American/British units. I counter the Soviet tanks with tank destroyers however that Soviet IS3 post war tank really sucks if your Germany and the Su-152 doesn't help either.

You think the King and the 88's are tough to beat? Wow.

the veteran tiger "one-shots" so many Allied tanks it is the bad mo-fo of the tank world. Once Disrupted the Kt quickly falls to enemy armor swarms. The Vet Tiger kills the first enemy for a disruption in counter fire. Then the next turn it damages a one of the two surviving enemy tanks while possibly being disrutped again in return (thanks WeSniper). On the 3rd turn, it damages the last remaining healthy enemy tank for disruption in return. After that, it finishes off the one of the two enemy tanks for nothing in return. It starts moving away to keep the range at medium and finishes off its work. The VT with a Sniper in support or Panzerjager Captured carrier in support is the armored battlefield king.

Just play overwatch and the new maps. those enemy armor tanks get whacked really easily with Pak-40 in the rear with sniper (the Russian armor range is 8, the Pak 40 is 12, the Panther is 10 or 12). Throw in a Blackshirt platoon with a few points to spend as you see fit. I like a 20mmFlaK because they can overwatch as well against enemy INFANTRY trying to advance.
You could then place the Sniper forward, overwatch approaches to the sniper with the 20mmFlak and protect the Panther from heavies with the Pak-40. The enemy tank now takes range 10 or better shots unit a disruption occurs, then you burst your Pak-40 into direct fire position during combat. Blam, blam. Keep that enenmy tank disrutped and win the game.

Keep the Italian officer next to the Pak-40 & 20mm FlaK He grants +1 to hit on defensive fire attacks (Overwatch is a form of defensive fire).

Pak-40 is part of the German anti-tank platoon at a cost of 27pts.
Blackshirt platoon is 17pts.
1 Sniper. . . 11points
Standard Panther. . . 35pts
20mmFlaK
97pts.

for 3 points, I like the Fucillo Modello (first to FIGHT!. . .uh and die)

The Veteran Tiger is a beast, but it is vulnerable to infantry, especially a UK build with Tally-Ho SA and a Royal Engineer. The one unit I have the most trouble against is the Wehrmacht Expert Sniper. It can kill infantry, head shot tanks and even shoot down aircraft with annoying reliability. Your best bets against them are armored cars (especially Greyhounds), but they are so fragile, it's almost always a suicide mission.

I love the greyhound. I run one with almost every US build I make. Kils almost anything on the battlefield.

The Brummbar is a pain to knock off the battle field for me
