Default Re: Tigers - were they worth it?

The Russian Steppe is not exactly a mirror. It has folds, undulations, dips, recesses, slopes, etc. So the tactical horizon, that is the distance how far you can actually see up to the next visual obstacle, may be limited by any of the above, depending on location.
But that is a good thing for the Defender. Plonk a Tiger behind a hill/in dip ect (exposing just the turret), when the T-34s come over the next hill, they explose themselves against the skyline, boom!
