@Hotwing

I thought Villers Bocage just might.(Mr. Wittmann and company) ;)

When I recieved my copy of Fortress Europe I was surprised they left out both Wehrmacht and SS Tigerkompanie  concidering the fact its on overall force list for Europe. ?( The fact that they had no information at all on SS formations was a bit of a puzzle.Not to mention for American and British players they need a whole different book for Airborne forces.One thing I\'ve noticed since starting up FOW is something you veterens already know is that it\'s GW for historical wargaming.In that you have to always buy more to get access to something else although their models are very nice and well made it\'s still way over priced. :dead: Of course I\'ll still spend the money,but I will make sure I buy what I want and research before I make any purchases. ;)

Most soldiers in this war have never seen a Tiger, so even if fun it\'s not exaclty the most common view on the battlefield.
~1000 (?) were build and spread all over the world =) - Whermacht (as far as i know) never had \"schwere Panzerkompanien\" like the SS. They had \"schwere Abteilungen\" attached to Panzer og Pzgr. Divisionen. (siehe Afrika, Ostfront, etc)

I said as much when I opened this theme. ;)

--- Zitat ---and as a rule Tigers where most often sent in platoon sized elements where needed.

This would pretty much refer that they were few in number. ;)Besides it\'s pretty much common knowledge there were not a great deal of them in the war,even I know this and I\'m not an avid World War II student or player.
All that said, many like to play them because they were awesome looking tanks(I for one think so) and would be fun to field from time to time. :)

 At my club it\'s pretty funny but I\'m the only American,but I play the Germans and most of the rest play Americans and Brits.
My plan is too present several different German Formations.

1.Waffen SS Panzerkompanie leaning towards Panthers
2.Waffen SS Tiger Formation for fun from time to time
3.Fallschirmjägerkompanie
4.SS PanzerGrenadierkompanie later down the road perhaps

There are several reasons for my choice
The first and most important is that I really like the look of these troops and vechicles. :thumbup:
The second is that they are expensive in terms of points and I have fewer models to paint(I paint slowwwwwwwww) ;)  :thumbup:
The last is I like to play elite armies as I handle this better.I\'m used to being outnumbered and this lends to careful planning.Some players like large hordes of troops that are not as reliable.I like to plan and have a reasonable expectation that my troops will respond to my ideas.Almost all armies I collect are this way except perhaps AWI BG where I\'m playing Americans and my troops are not very reliable,but this is an exception to my normal army choices. :) Hell,in WAB I collect expensive Barbarians(Germans,stubborn=cost more) : :lol: : In addition to Vikings and others.
