Idk how they did it

2020-02-09 23:15:20 UTC  

french tanks were actually superior to the german ones, they even managed to achieve several victories but alas the game was rigged from the start

2020-02-09 23:15:52 UTC  

spread out armor and motor vs concentrated one

2020-02-09 23:16:07 UTC  

Not even that

2020-02-09 23:16:10 UTC  

they also had more fuel, tanks and motors

2020-02-09 23:16:14 UTC  

the french aircraft and anti aircraft defence was atrocius however, the luftwaffe demolished them without a sweat

2020-02-09 23:16:15 UTC  

French kept most in reserve

2020-02-09 23:16:41 UTC  

The spread out vs. concentrated issue is more prominent on the eastern front if I remember correctly

2020-02-09 23:16:57 UTC  

was true in France

2020-02-09 23:16:57 UTC  

Germans using the concentrated approach

2020-02-09 23:17:08 UTC  

its not even being spread out, its about having an airforce to cover the gaps and assist the tanks/infantry

2020-02-09 23:17:20 UTC  

which the baguettes didnt have

2020-02-09 23:17:24 UTC  

France spread ouf it's tanks evenly

2020-02-09 23:17:55 UTC  

Germany concentrated basically all of it in the Ardennes forces

2020-02-09 23:18:38 UTC  

the french went all in into belgium and netherlands while the entire german army flanked them and destroyed their supply depots

2020-02-09 23:18:41 UTC  

The one thing regrettable about tanks is that stormtroopers became less relevant

2020-02-09 23:18:50 UTC  

and cut off their reinforcments

2020-02-09 23:18:52 UTC  

@Mr. Nessel I liked you better when you were a leaf

2020-02-09 23:19:00 UTC  

Now u look gay

2020-02-09 23:19:16 UTC  

It's black Mozart in a Hazmat suit

2020-02-09 23:19:17 UTC  

didnt the SS have storm trooper regiments

2020-02-09 23:19:17 UTC  

not really

2020-02-09 23:19:27 UTC  

I will return to leafkind eventually

2020-02-09 23:19:35 UTC  

stormtroopers were way more relevant in ww2

2020-02-09 23:20:38 UTC  

Idk. Their role had been taken over by tanks. In WW1 stormtroopers and infiltration tactics were vital for the central powers

2020-02-09 23:21:05 UTC  

depends

2020-02-09 23:21:15 UTC  

foot stormtroopers irrelevant

2020-02-09 23:22:03 UTC  

but motorized ones were basically the offensive arm of Germany alongside the tanks

2020-02-09 23:22:31 UTC  

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stormtrooper usually when talking about stormtroopers ppl are talking either about WW1 or the SA

2020-02-09 23:24:03 UTC  

yeah but they did the same thing basically

2020-02-09 23:24:30 UTC  

imo tanks didn't replace stormtroopers but were in parallel with it

2020-02-09 23:25:48 UTC  

didnt the soviets employ shock troops of their own

2020-02-09 23:25:58 UTC  

isnt that the same as stormtroops

2020-02-09 23:26:06 UTC  

they xid

2020-02-09 23:26:12 UTC  

afaik

2020-02-09 23:26:19 UTC  

Idk the role of stormtropers specifically in WW2 seems to be mroe related to urban combat

2020-02-09 23:26:31 UTC  

khmm

2020-02-09 23:26:36 UTC  

Infantry support for tanks is different to stormtroopers imo
