    My favorite tank is the Tiger II, it is a amazing feat of engineering, and could destroy any tank on any of the opposing sides with ease. It's downfall was it's over-engineering, it was far too complicated to be able to maintain in a battle, and was prone to breaking down. The complications also led to it taking a long time to manufacture, and taking up a lot of manpower at a time where Germany needed to conserve on the manpower it had.

    My favorite tank isn't necessarily a tank, but rather a tank destroyer. That destroyer is the Jagdtiger. It's just a massive hulking beast of German engineering, and I love it. It's simple enough to operate and maintain with heavy armor, a large main cannon, and can still maintain decent speeds. It's only downfall is the sheer size of it makes it an easy target.

    Yeah, all the German super tanks are massive feats of engineering, it is amazing how such a large and complex vehicle was somewhat operational of World War II. The sheer size is also a problem with the super tanks, getting larger could make you a big target to allied bombing operations.
