Here it is. I love this build. I absolutely dominated this build:
ISU-122 x4
T-70 x1
SU-85 x1
Sturmovik x1
Halftrack x2
Mosin Nagant x2
Fanatical Sniper x1
Here is the build:
Vet Tiger x1 = 65
Tiger I x1 = 56
King Tiger x1 = 62
Wespe x1 = 26
Disciplined Spotter x1 = 9
Hamster x1 = 7
Bf109 x2 = 28
This build dominated. It cand deal with everything. You will most likely get initiative so choose to go first. This will allow you to place a plane with the wespe/hamster to protect from air and dictate how your opponent moves.
HOw to shoot:
I shoot it like this:
Vet Tiger has crackshot so it shoots by itself.
The King Tiger and Tiger I shoot at the same target.
Wespe focuses on available targets with low armor at long range.
Planes protect wespe/hamster using defensive fire.
This works very well and gaurentees you a kill pretty much every turn against a tank. Against infantry I probably wouldnt use this but it could survive with the planes and wespe/spotter combo.
Let me know what you guys think.

Well, its certainly beefy. When your talking about units like Vet Tigers, KTs, Tiger Is, that pretty much excel in almost every combat situation, the outcome is expected. The Wespe/109 combination is interesting.
The ISU-122s and the SU-85 have simple and serious shortcomings in terms of having a mounted gun with no turret. Now I don't know how close this fight came to, but tank destroyers and assualt guns are at a major disadvantage when they are the primary strike force.
Its solid, but then again Tigers are always solid. A similiar soviet build with IS-2s might have given you more trouble, again it depends on what kind of range you are fighting at.

I was striking from long range a lot and was on the defensive. Most attacks were medium range.
I do like the Wespe/Bf109 combo. It worked well and I was able to take out:
Halftrack x2 W/mosin nagant x2
T-70 x1
And believe it or not the Wespe scored the final damage on an ISU-122!
Yea, I am starting to get the idea that the Tiger and its Variations are just beasts. ONly problem is infantry, even then I have gotten some amazing rolls to one hit kill Rangers.

Its an armour killing build that can stand its ground against an infantry build. But if your opponent brings 255pts worth of Bazookas and Rangers, ouch. I don't know if you guys play with a unit limit, but its really relative. The biggest disadvantage of any build that revolves around a few key pieces is the number of shots you take each turn, it can be your undoing if you don't roll well.

Yea, I know what you're saying. Luckily I tend to get good rolls and I got amazing rolls this time.
