Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Best alpha damage of any tier 8 artillery; can deal serious damage to any tank in the game
- Lower tiered scouts may bounce off its frontal armor
Cons:
- Horrifying camo values
- Extremely low mobility
- Extremely narrow gun traverse arc
- Bad overall stats on top gun to compensate for massive alpha
Performance
The G.W. Tiger (P) is very different from its predecessor, the G.W. Panther. Right away, players will suffer from the extremely slow movement of this SPG while being stunned by its sheer size. There's even more for players to get used to, and that's the gun. The stock gun feels similar to the G.W. Panther's, just less accuracy, slower reload and more alpha. The top gun is very different, with a lot worse accuracy, a lot longer reload, but a devastating effect on the enemies.
The G.W. Tiger (P) is the first of three very similar German SPG's. All three mount a 21 cm gun when upgraded, dealing 1100 alpha damage with the HE round if it penetrates, which can only happen to some light tanks, tanks with paper thin armor or tanks with an open roof. Being the lowest tier to mount the gun, the G.W. Tiger (P) has the worst stats on the gun, with the longest reload, worst accuracy, and longest aim time of the three. However, you get massive alpha damage at tier 8, able to remove a half or more, sometimes all of a same tier heavy's HP in one shot. However, the G.W. Tiger (P) has extremely low mobility, with slow movement, acceleration, and hull traverse. This makes it extremely hard to defend yourself against close in scouts, especially ones that move horizontally to you, forcing you to turn.
The G.W. Tiger (P) does not see much use in Clan Wars events with a tier 8 cap.
Early Research
- First research top gun (210mm Mörse 18/1) then upgrade engine, lastly the suspension
- The upgraded gun is lighter than the stock gun
- If you are able to get the Enhanced Longitudinal Torsion Bar equipment you can then fit an Artillery Shell Rammer and a Gun Laying Drive to the completely stock tank.
