      Well, they had to at least pretend it was balanced, so they gave it the worst gun in the game at that time.
      It’s still second worst, but they added a semiautomatic AT rifle to the Pz.II and forgot about the magazine, so it’s a single shot 20mm with a one and a half second reload. The DPM is 520

      A small tank with thick armor seems like a good idea to me since their light overall weight should enable them to cross light bridges, soft ground, and be transported quickly by light trucks and trains. But the thing to sacrifice seems to me should be crew, with no room for loaders and with it, reduced rate of fire. Such tanks would have to obtain viable rates of fire by operating in groups and using collective rates of fire to fight opponents containing 5 men per tank, you pit against such a tank, 3 light heavies containing a total of 6 men. The engines and ammo supplies might have to be small too, since the area of armor needed to surround large engines and ammo supplies would weigh down the tank.

    I have the PzII J, at one point it was a seal clubber but over the years power creep has made it less so, there are tanks in the game that can easily pen her with gold rounds, but, when you do get into a game where you're top tier it can be a real blast.
    Sometimes you can get through a game firing regular ammo and you don't lose money but if you have to resort to using gold it can be expensive.
    But funny thing about my PzII J, is I've gotten 3 Raider medals with her

      most of those countries are covered to be fair because Germany took their most sucessful designs and adopted them as their own, notice they never adopted anything the Italians made lol, for example Poland 's most prolific tank was the 7TP which was based on the British Vickers MK.e which bare many similarities to the Russain t-26 with exception of the christie suspension, the French had a defensive juggernaut in the Char B and Renault FT but it had no effective offense, Czechoslovakia had probably the best early design in the Skoda, it was the base for many variants used by the Germans in the LT vz. 35 from the Czeks and LT vz. 38 Sweden notice this is early war only

The trick with a tank this size is to never stop moving, you have faster acceleration and as long as you hold the forward key down most tanks struggle to chase you or even hit a shot on your tiny tank when you're moving. I've bounced several large shots just by them not being able to line up their guns properly on a small target.

    I remember seeing that Tank on display in Belgrade back when I was a youngster. I was confused to read "Pzkw II" on the plate, for all pictures I had seen of Pzkw II's showed some markedly different wheel configuration. Also that rounded escape hatch at the side with its interrupted mudguards looked so awkward that I assumed the partisans must have cobbled some frankentank together from parts of different tank wrecks. Little did I know that the germans actually built their version of the Mathilda I

    I argue that the Panzer I should be added to more games as it’s a fascinating tank. It was adequate enough to perform certain tasks and in my mind I reckon it should at least earn itself a Reserve spot in WT as it is similar to the Panzer II although I do admit it wouldn’t be completely useful due to lack of weapon penetration capabilities

    6:29 was there a mention of two other vehicles before the quote you put up? Because that only adds up to 20 vehicles, not 22. With the extra 8 delivered in 1941 that only adds up to 28 vehicles, not 30.

    I'd say 'Baby Tiger' is a post-war nickname at earliest, if not from a model making company's box art, then from early postal-subscription or early-internet scuttlebutt, or even from WoT (Wargaming) or WT (Gaijin) games's own YT/Twitch community content creators.

      Took a gander in Google and the few pics I saw of him and his tank seem to be a German light scout car, namely the SdKFz222, though one pic had 234 instead with the highly recognizable short 75.

    This could have been really effective in North Africa where the Germans faced a lot of light anti-tank guns that were shallowly dug in or just mounted on the back of trucks! The armour the Germans faced was generally very tough, so tough that the 37mm and 50mm tank guns couldn't penetrate it anyway, but the 20mm gun would have been very effective against all these unprotected and hard to conceal anti-tank guns.
