I just finished the Soviet campaign. My B0 unit, a KV-1 hap 30+ kills. I was wondering how many kills anyone else has seen.

In the "a long, long road to victory" campaign, a tank (sherman 75mm, upgraded to 76mm, ri-upgraded to pershing) got around 50 kills and a level of experience around 120!
It was a monster, a nightmare for german tanks and soviet tanks.

Regard.

In Russian Steel my T34's are starting to hit 40. If they just survive all the way, it's gonna be ugly

dunno if it was a bug in the game or what but I once
me german sniper killed 3 men from a russian infantry unit
with a single shot

i had i beleve a t26 with 56kills but then a me110came

i think my best and ultimate unit is the m26 pershing from "long long road" (finally finished!) with ecxactly 100 kills.

second was a jackson with 80 if IIRC.

best inf was the A0 rangers with i believe 36 or 37 kills

At least with previous versions (6.2, 7.0) the Übersniper was a phenomenon. We had some threads discussing snipers killing of entire squads with single shots! *bang- Auugh! x many* :p

Does each member of a infantry squad count as 1 kill? Because I've had tanks kill a squad and only be credited for a few kills.

nope , the whole unit is a kill . Although , if you damage
a tank so its crew bails out , then kill the crew you
might get a kill for both tank and crew , not sure

No One Squad equals one Kill for scoring in the game.
So if your tank takes out 9 of 10 men in a squad and then your
2-man recon team gets the tenth man, the kill gos to the recon
team.

In that case, I had a 5-man German rifle squad wipe out 19 units on one scenario.

At Tankhead's SPWaW resources there's a Heroes page.

In a late war scen I had a ai controlled soviet scout unit just hammer the s**t out of a entrenched [actually in a trench]german inf.squad which fired back uselessly and then was routed.I thought that scout teams were just that, four man teams,the german unit was a full ten man squad dug-in while the soviet's were in the open AND moving,did'nt seem quite fair....To you a hero is somekind of weird sandwich...Oddball

I had German 60+ battles Longcampaign in versio 4.5 or something, I started from 39 and ended in 45. I had two units who survived the whole campaign, PanzerIII > KingTiger which had 220 kills and 88 Flak which had 190 kills. First in Poland, then France, Eastfront and then in 44 back to France.

I am at Directive 33 in the Mega-Campaign lost victories. I have 2 Stug's with 60 kills each and an Sdfk 250/9 with 56 kills. Also almost all of my infantry units have 30-40 kills. It is sad to say that two battles ago I lost 3 infantry squads. They only have 0-3 kills now.
