Nah, you said some StuGs burning from air-strikes, the ones I shot up were burning courtesy of Sherman 75mms....

Curious on the reasons behind the development of the German STUGs? :chin:

I know it was originally designed as an infantry support AFV... but was the decision to mount the gun to the hull with a limited traverse... in order to eliminate the turret, reduce the overall profile of the vehicle, and develop an AFV design that was easier to mass produce then a turret-mounted vehicle? Yes?

In CS game terms... I have found it better to have a turret-mounted tank (in regards to shoot & scoot) then a tank destroyer / assault gun.
