| But will it be as nasty against either infantry or Aircraft as that over-gunned Sherman-105.

| | The Sherman-105 rips apart elite troops but is not particularly difficult to kill. I would rather have a def 7/4 Brumbär, even against def 5 infantry. | | | |

| With no turret the Brummbar is nearly worthless against aircraft. So the sherman-105 has a lot more flexibility then the Brummbar. And flexibility is what usually wins for the allies. | | | |

You must not shoot at defense 5 infantry much then. 11 dice is outstanding, 9 or 8 is barely passable.
I don't see how you can say it's "not particulary difficult to kill". It has the exact same defense as a regular Sherman. Sees pretty well-rounded defensively for those points, like all the basic Shermans have been. | | | |

| | If played right, the Sherman could be devastating. I play against a bunch of guys who build half their army with infantry. | | Life is like a dogsled team, unless you are the lead dog, the view never changes.

As many players do who think it is a great infantry game. Infantry also have some great advantages that some people have learned to use. | | Sean Banks Champion of Elementals Official Organizer Gen Con 05 maxminis Event | Winterfantasy 06 maxminis Event | Gen Con 06 maxminis Event | Winterfantasy 07 Community Event | |
