Default RE: RC Battlefields

Have read several Witmann accounts also and it does happen, however it's a suicide mission to run a tank in that sort of situation alone. [:@]Wittmann had a couple other Tigers in the immediate area, so outside of a few minutes completely alone in some areas of the Bocage where he told his #2 and 3 tanks in place while he went down the road blasting away, he had some support available.[>:] Russians were especially efficient at taking out lone tanks with the simplest of devices.[&o] The video is extremely well made, but personally I would place a couple Pzgrenadiers on the deck behind the turret, (like the Russians were prone to do), for immediate anti sniper or infantry support. Not taking anything against the spendid video....about the best I have seen thus far and about the most realistic I have seen, but just inserting a couple tactical flaws that could be easy to remedy. The sound effects of the tracks and engine sounds are really impressive and the video was very well planned and the photography is superb. Now, a couple more RC Tigers running in the area would be an absolute killer.
