I love the elephant.

The Sd.Kfz. 184 tank destroyer. I would even consider marry one, if it was socially acceptable.

Even though mere words can't express my feelings, i wrote a humble haiku:

In a shroud of steel
ponderous in the distance
adversaries death

My zen master was kind enough to draw a kakejiku, while he was in deep meditation:

And here is a 1/35 scale model that i build:

To all of you: Show your love to the elephant. Search your feelings, you will know it to be true.

"Axis can STALL2WIN to get to that late game, there is really no hope for USF competitively short of getting the best side of the best USF maps and being an order of magnitude better than your opponent." - SageOfTheSix, after losing to Jesulin's Ostheer on Semoskiy Winter

I was hiding my feelings for you, Elefant, for way too long now
This thread is a perfect opportunity to express my feelings...
Each time I know that everything is lost, when at every corner hides an SU85, you appear with your bright eyes that see so far and scare them away!

Stay strong and see you tonight!

I feel you.
Let it all out, let it all out.

Everything is ok. Everything is clear. With the spotting scope.

The only good units the Ostheer has.

Of course, to balance it is

- the slowest unit in the game
- the most inaccurate unit in the game
- the most easily killed unit in the game (well, in comparision to other tanks anyway)

Isn't it great!?!

You forgot to mention the stunning good looks.

What exactly do you do with the Elefant to come to this conclusion?

Great model, btw. Did you make that before COH2 came out?

Thanks.

Yes, before COH2. Remember the time when you where young and had those inexplicable feelings towards heavy tank destroyers?

Sometimes I wish I still had as much patience and interest in all that as when I was a kid! I loved making those models

Indeed; those awkward times when the other boys were thinking about getting skirts off and penetrating from a side position while I was thinking about penetrating side skirts from an ambush position...
