  • The Pz.Bef.Wg.VI P, or Panzerbefehlswagen VI P, is a tier IV German premium heavy tank that features massively thick armor at the front, but very little elsewhere. As such, it sits at a higher BR than other Tiger tanks, but is it worth it? I go over all of that and more, and answer the question - Should You Buy The Panzerbefehlswagen VI P?

      @@reedman0780 I MIGHT be able to do that next week. I can tell you that the T-55AM-1 will be much better for you if you're more used to lower tier vehicles. The T-72AV Turms will be a shock to the system if you play coming from WWII vehicles, and is not something that you'll get used to quickly.

    I bought it due to being a fan of the Tiger P and despite its slow speed and slow turret, it's a force to be reckon with at times. I'd recommend using bushes as well as it'll help trick people more into thinking it's a Tiger H1 than the Tiger P
    Plus let's not forget that reverse speed

      After I already recorded my review and pretty much had it done, I had a 4 kill match, and then a 6 kill match with this vehicle. One after the other. In a downtier, it dominates more than almost every other vehicle. In an uptier, it lacks a ton.

    I had good matches with the Tiger P which I really appreciate the strong frontal armor. I had a match where I dueled with an M4E2 Jumbo and an M6 Heavy. I struggled against the Jumbo but I scored several shots in the M6. I eventually took out the M6 but not the Jumbo but I critically stalled their flanking maneuver on the cap zone, giving time for my time to win the match.

  • @Chad_Thundernuts

    Good timing for this review!
    I'm probably gonna get this Panzer Beef Wellington 6, mainly because I still need to grind out 3 more rank IV to get the Maus. After grinding from the start of rank III since the Maus was announced, I don't think I have it in me to get all 6 rank IV that I need in time, so for the sake of my sanity I'm going to buy the last 2 lol

    I always end up only getting a max of 150mm of armor when angling a tiger H1, I’ve been in multiple tricky situations with the Porsche tiger and usually come out on top, the speed is never really an issue, the gun could traverse faster but it hasn’t been to big of a deal. Play reserved if you get up tiered, and play aggressively if it’s a down tier match.

    just in case you want to pronounce it correctly: the second E in befehl is longer (since it has an H afterwards). Like you pronounce it, it would be written like "befls-wagen“.

    It's a love hate thing for me. Turret traverse sucks. The gun is good but not great when uptiered. But man in the right situation this is a hint is a total roadblock to your enemies. I've had situations where I'm taking in two or three enemies in front of me an bounce a dozen or more incoming shots. I'm covered in camo so I can only imagine their complete confusion. Fantastic Reverse speed as well. Great little beast in the right setting. Oh and a solid SL and RP farmer too.

    You are a mind reading wizard! I was just exlploring to buy this tank. My current German line up comprising H1, Hetzer & captured KV-1 is not going too well. Pretty disappointed with the Hetzer, always getting uptiered and 8 times out of 10 cannot win engagements with experienced players. Though in all honesty my skills at rank 92 are questionable. Decided against buying this premium heavy tank and save my GE.
    A question regarding using add on foilage for camo. - can bought foilage be reused on tanks of any nation if removed from a current tank or are they locked for one time application on one tank of one nation? For e.g. if I buy foilage for lets say Soviet T34-57 and later decide to switch tech tree to Germany's H1, can the said foilage if removed from T34-57 be available for the H1?
    I play AB almost all the time and have read how foilage renders/does not render at a certain distance and not particularly advantageous in AB.
    As always thanks for your hardwork, I say this particularly for players who are not experts, lessons in your videos helped me give a good fight when up against a clearly expert player with a hard to beat tank (unless one knows exactly where to hit frontal armor, and quickly at that) with insane amount of foilage for camo.

    • @imwilllliwmi
      @imwilllliwmi 2 роки тому +1

      I’d recommend using the jpz iv with the long 75mm and a panther in your lineup. They’re both very capable tanks and should serve you well
      And for your foliage question: if you buy a bush, it can be used on any tank you have. You would not have to remove it from the T-34-57 in order to put it on the H1
