can you post the link, please?

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

Yeah that would be interesting. Which was more effective anyhow? The Bazooka or the Panzerfaust?

[schwarzpanzer]

The Panzershreck!

In what way does a decent radio depend? Tanks cannot act independantly on the battlefield, when they do, they fail.

[me262]

but it is only for the bazooka,not for the panzershreck

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

Yeah that does not have info on the Panzerschreck or Panzerfaust.

Well the platoon commander had one! :P

Hand signals will do for WW2-era (though the Russians had flags! :P )

I know real-world penetration for the Bazooka is 110mm and the PIAT 100mm.

I have the 'Faust Klein 50 & 100 Klein and 'Shreck (Not Disney!)somewhere and will do a little table if you want?

I'd have the Bazooka - light, available and re-loadable. Used against doors, buildings, pidgeons etc.

For pure anti-tank work the Panzerfaust Klein 100 had the best penetration, but was un-reloadable, so I go for the PanzerShreck.

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

What was the penetration of the Faust or Schreck?

[plan_D]

Hand signals were not good enough for World War 2. They're unreliable and take work. They also put those doing the hand signals at risk of enemy snipers as they're exposed.
