Whatever happens, we should probably keep the Hetzer and specialist team hidden until they get a good shot at the sides or rear of that A39. The rest of our forces should be able to deal with the bulk of the convoy without them.

The A39 is pretty much immune to all sorts of attack, unless you can manage to flank one with a decent tank and shoot it's engine or its tracks. I do mean tank, I haven't pierced any of it's armour with light AT weapons.

tl:dr it is twenty times more dangerous than all the other vehicles in the convoy combined.
Can we throw a grenade under it?

I know what the strongest tank is...

This thing has enough MM in armour that hitting it point-blank with our Hetzer would only chip the paint. Our best bet is to track it (blow up its tracks), or somehow lead it into a situation where it disables itself; It's heavy weight means that it would have one heck of a time trying to move if stuck, where we can then procede to load all our weapons into its back, after we deal with everything else of course.

There's no way you could know. No way.

Also, that's a decent enough strategy, you just have to hit its tracks.

((The moment stuff starts going south (aka that tank blowing stuff up when we start running out of cannons and mines) I'm ready to convince who I can and desert,that might also open up some oppertunitys for squad combat.))

If we'd have brought flamethrowers, molotov cocktails, incendiary grenades, or really anything that sticks to the metal and burns, we could attack its true weakpoint, the crew. Improvisation, anyone?

Don't forget, you have a good stock of AT grenades. A few of them will tear ANY tank to shreds.

And we also have satchels placed. Dont desert till weve given it a shot ja?

Blow up the middle satchel when the mk8 passes over it. Try to use the upper-most one on the turtle. ('less the charges are controlled by their original owners, then go for it gunin! No wait he was the medic. Who was the engi?)

Question: What weapons do officers get? SMGs? Pistols? Sabres?

Command the soldiers on my side of the road: Infantry, sniper and MG42 should shoot enemy infantry, mortar blasts a fuel truck, the PaK and the SdKfz fire on the tank in the front.
[3]
Open fire! If I need to shoot a vehicle then go for the fuel truck.
[4]
Stay in cover. Wait for an opportunity to snipe the driver of one of the trucks in the front..

Proceed quickly!

BOOM, BITCH



Both enemy tanks down. [2] The infantry is scattering behind the mine line, [4] and only half-tracks are exploded by additional mines. [1] Several units disobey orders, the Pz1 and an infantry squad charge towards the enemy. Infantry are [1] down, the tank's murdering shit.

[5]

The enemy is utterly devastated in under a minute:




[1]

Additional reinforcements are coming down the road!




Fuck titties.

[1]



Make that double fuck titties. Looks like the Russians sent their own force to destroy the convoy.

Why not forge a temporary alliance with the Russians?

Keep fighting!
