Tank Panic &

Post by Akmatov »

I'm playing around creating my own German OB, kind of on the basis of how things might have been better organized in a slightly divergent timeline, and I've developed a question about tank panic.

The manual states that infantry units without anti-tank weapons may panic when in contact with tanks. However, no where in the manual is the term "anti-tank weapon" defined. Usually this is kind of obvious, but . . ..

For the purposes of preventing tank panic will satchel charges or molotov cocktails act as anti-tank weapons?

I and the more rational & humane Reich thank you.

If I was a tank driver, I would certainly be alarmed if I saw some crazy Ivan running at my ride with a molotov, and the same goes for a satchel charge. So, I think you're safe to assume that those count as anti-tank weapons.

I think every weapon with ap ammo is accounted for as an AT weapon
