How to deal with better tanks than yours ?

[vince hughes]

Use infantry to threaten the superior tank. If he fires try to get them in a position to swamp him.

Use cover (woods, buildings and height) to gain modifiers.

Don't fire if you don't need to. Make them commit first.

Work angles, get the crossfire when able.

Simple example. Why throw M4's in the face of Panthers ? It will be a lose-lose situation. Instead, get your M4's in limiting terrain 4 hexes or more away. Meantime, get your infantry to advance thus threatening the Panthers position. Then if the infantry do actually swarm him, your tanks will be free to move or even fire at your enemy as it is locked in assault.

I have had these problems when using PzIII's against KV1's and T34's
