What kind of games allow for 5 ISU anyway... lol.
You probably did something else wrong before.
I'll have to ask you to believe me that I didn't. I know it's possible I am making it up. I hope you will give me the benefit of the doubt
The reason it was possible to get 5 ISUs was because the game was a long stalemate slugfest. You can't walk into an ISU so you are forced to give them lots of time to field several each. He had no inf really so lots of popcap.
At point of ISU hitting field I had:
Sturmpio vet3
2x Volks vet3/4
2x Obersoldaten vet2
Panzer fusiliers vet4
Sturmoffizier
Inf gun vet 4
Panther vet1
Stolen Mortar
Stolen AT gun
Stolen Maxim
70% map control. I had lost no units and we had killed several full squads of theirs. (I have this replay I think. Unfortunately it's full of insults from both sides, so if someone wants to check, I can send it by PM, I'd rather not post it.)
Within 5 minutes 3 of those squads were wiped by the ISU. I flanked with Panther, got caught by mines, retreated panther and repaired, tried to flank again - New ISU appeared. Retreated Panther, got away, repaired (now vet2) waited for Sturmtiger, attacked with Panther from right sight, while attack with sturmtiger from the front. Panther died, Panzerfusiliers died trying to use AT grenade for engine crit, volks both died trying to use hreks - all one-shotted. I killed one ISU and his teammate had already built 2 more.
