How to deal with tanks?

Post by lessavini »

I'm playing the Ludendorf scenario as Germany and UK began sending tanks. They feel pretty OP and I'm scared. Any tips? I deployed a tank of my own but it's far away from UK's.

Also, while I'm here: any general tips for this scenario? I'm not sure but I think I have to decide at the beginning if I want to blitzkrieg Paris ASAP or to slowly push the frontlines all over the territory to capture cities and drain French's national morale? (I think I was too slow and the blitzkrieg window probably closed)

So it seems artillery is actually pretty good against them, as they them/inflict damage directly. Also, well prepped infantry (supplied + trenched + hi morale) also makes them sweat.

I didn't try ground attack planes but I suspect it could be useful too.

Yeah, ground attack planes can definitely be useful against tanks for sure

Based on my experience with 1918 scenario of Ludendorff

Attack using upgraded artillery, attack using planes and then use your veteran corps. The tanks will die, this is not WW2.
