Artillery: This does sort of decently on some medium/light armour. Sapper Piats: Piats are fucking terrible and this relies on the opponent not supporting the jagd with any infantry, or to put it more bluntly, on him being completely retarded.Д¤. I have won before by chain buttoning with a few infantry squads a jagd that was foolish enough to run into one of my at batteries but difficult to pull off to say the least, and you have to win the infantry battle first, which when faced with well used assault grenediers is exceedingly difficult.ДЈ. 18 pounders: Stationary, relies on my opponent running into them and basically staying there until they die.

A single firefly costs more than the jagd, so if the thing scores a single kill, its won an economic victory.Дў. In my experience a hell of a lot more than 2.5% of the games I play have both of us picking up more than the eight points required to get a jagd out, and once its out, handled with even a moderate degree of competence its practically unstoppable.ДЎ: Fireflies. I never said it was something that automatically made panzer elite win every game. Use nimble infantry that can run circles around it, or light mechanized to do the job. Do not engage a Jagd with tanks on equal terms, because they will always be outclassed. At that point, it should be easy to finish off. engine damage, tread damage, etc.), it can no longer turn and is thus effectively a firepower casualty as well (provided you stay out of the 10 degree main gun arc). Once you achieve a mobility kill against it (i.e. It isn't even impossible to score a Jagdpanther kill. As long as that PE player thinks his Jagd is in mortal danger (even though it isn't), he will not use it, again making it useless. Engage in maneuver warfare, where swift advances can keep an opponent's strong assets at bay and useless. When coming up on an enemy with a Jagd and you know that you have no easy solution for resolving the problem, it is best to retreat and engage in a new front, capturing as much as you can before he can bring his Jagd to bear. It only needs to be driven off again and again to make the PE player think defensively, making the Jagd a useless white elephant. Considering the Jagd has no traversible turret aside from the 10 degree gun traverse it has, it is terribly easy to flank, especially in 2v2s and up, where a Jagd can actually be realistically fielded. And it is not as immortal as you make it out to be. In over 80 games as Panzer Elite, I've only pumped out a Jagd two times, and both times the player was stupid. If you try and make some sort of strat that revolves around getting the Jagdpanther as fast as you can, well. As Dareth said it requires a ton of experience.

Seriously, what? The Jagdpanther is hard as hell to get in 1v1. Its like a baneblade that costs as much as a guardsman squad. A unit that costs three hundred manpower and can destroy small armies of tanks? Why would you like that?
