RE: A haiku to uselessness: the ATR
Shad,
To imagine a platoon of ATR's taking out a whole tank platoon is going to be a very rare thing and only then maybe only when PzI's and II's arrive.
HOWEVER, to reinforce what Dave said. I have always 'cocked a snook' at them, until one day, against Wayne, whilst ignoring said platoon, he fired them at some PzIII's. Comfortable with him needing box-cars, I happily saw his rolled 7's either bounce off the tin or go whizzing across my bows.
However, what he had actually done was set up a cross fire and when his 'T'-"whatever it may have been" fired and copped the crossfire bonus, I was suddenly feeling a little embarrassed. Fortunately, it was still a miss and the PzIII'S quickly scuttled to a safer position, but ne'er more do I 'cock' that 'snook', and nowadays keep a wary beady eye on the ATR's furtive moves :-)
