Also, I cannot remember if this only applies to panzer elite, but if doing a guide about them, remember to include the different abilities between the Kettenkrad and Schwimmwagen.
Enjoyed reading both this, and your American guide, thank you for the contribution.
Plus it lets you rush and destroy MG encampments in the early-mid game, potentially if you can roll out assault, upgrade one of these bad boys to a flamethrower, you can just burn a pre-tank and AT gun british base down no problem and recoup your losses.
Panzer 4's are really, really fucking good with the blitzkrieg doctrine. They are somewhat cheap and spammable and when used with the blitz ability, they tear through everything except bridges filled with AT guns. They are very good at dealing with infantry as long as the Panzers are in groups of at least three and have lvl 2 vet or higher. At the same time, they pose far less of a threat of friendly fire and are much harder to flank than the StuH 42, the Tank called from off map in the Blitz doctrine.
Be warned, once you call it in your manpower rate will be severely cut down for 5 minutes or until the King dies, but if your King Tiger lasts shorter than 5 minutes then you have bigger problems. Never, ever, ever, ever send the King Tiger accross a bridge that can be destroyed unless you are absolutely certain that there is no way that bridge will be destroyed while it is crossing. If it dies on an exploding bridge then its wreckage is gone too, meaning there is no way for you to get it back even with a Panzer Elite as an ally. If you are on a map like Achelous River where there are only bridges, then send everything else accross first and keep the King Tiger back until the bridge is secure.
