alternatively, ostheer repair speed can be buffed so that tiger can stay on frontline more. just my 2 cents
+1, this should happen whether or not the Tiger is buffed directly.
I´m not the one saying players should lose the game if they didn´t chose that one doctrine. I simply put the shit you said into a different perspective to show how ridiculous it is.
If we're still talking about the Firefly/Croc scenario from the previous page, wouldn't one or two Panzer IVs and a Stug be better than a Tiger? The Croc can't actually threaten your tanks (Cromwell penetration, longer reload time, half the damage) so flanking and killing the Firefly with the Panzer IV(s) before bringing up the Stug to kill the Croc quicker is what I would do. It really depends on map design and how well supported the Croc and Firefly are though.
I wouldn't have thought the Tiger was a good choice against UKF in general. UKF simply has too many anti-heavy weapons (PIATs, 17 Pounder, Firefly, Tulips) for the Tiger to be as much use as an equivalent cost in medium vehicles.
