The main reason it was “good” was it’s numbers

Yeah @Alluvallaton

@Alluvallaton It was still an excellent tank

wait

I meant to ping

other guy

Wrong ping

Dumm dumm

:(

Regardless that was really most of the Soviet strategy in WW2

I am as mean as the harsh winter of the North

“if you throw enough shit at the fan, eventually it will clog”

It was made to fit the conditions of the Red Army. They didn't need a perfectly crafted war machine that would dominate in a warthunder match, they needed something easy to produce that got the job done to win the war of attrition

Enemy at the Gates isn't a documentary my friend

I know.

The Soviets still had brilliant commanders, despite the fact that most of them came later in the war

The Enemy at the Gates book is really good though

EaTG is still really good yeah

The Soviets realized early on that it was going to be a war of attrition

Something the German commanders refused to realize

and Hitler actually had a better grasp on

Well, that wasn’t the ONLY hole in the German strategy. Obviously there are he traditional ones but

TIK had a good quote about it where the Germans were used to the European chessboard and not the Eurasian Go Board

The german commanders were pretty dumb in theyre planned strategy to take over the USSR @Honey Beanger

yes

Rush Moscow gonna capitulate like France lol xd

Yeah

Even if Stalin lost Moscow through magick

He wouldnt give up he would throw the entire fucking Soviet Union between him if need be

Yeah

And most of the industry was in the urals already so

and I remember Anti was arguing that Stalin would stay in Moscow even if the Germans captured it

My ass

Even though the government already had plans to evacuate to kuibyshev on the Volga

Btw TIK is gonna make videos on the Courland pocket soon

When he finishes

The crusader series

Starting Early 2019 was it

Could recheck but fug dat

Epic

The Courland is Latvia right
