Ok, Im a noob and i have a noob friend who uses germany and i use uk. All he does is make tons of king tigers and beat the crap out of me. my bombers dont do sh*t to them and my tanks are even worse. All we biuld is tanks now cause theres no point in sending infrantry agasint his king tigers. Is there a way to limit how many tanks you can build? And how do you beat an army of king tigers?

The main thing to do against the King Tiger is to use a lot of AT-guns. (As said before.)
But, if you´re the UK and you´ve used your tanks against his, have you ever tried the amphibious tank´s special power?
It´s pretty effective against machines (siege weapons and tanks) and buildings.

As UK use Amphibious tanks. They do 2700 damage per phosphorus shell which is almost 1/2 the HPs of a King Tiger (requires 75% power). Amphibious tanks only cost 125F/155G/2 Pop vs. 200F/800G/4 Pop per King Tiger. Build houses and spam Amphibious tanks and you shouldn't lose to Tiger tanks again!

hey thanks for all the tips. Just one question tho, do I just put all my amphibous tanks on autoattack for their special and attack him? Cause Im scared that they will all fire their rounds at one or two tanks and run out of power right away. More tips are welcome.

King Tigers have never given me a problem. All they are are expensive tanks that most Germany players mass. They have better stats because they are expensive. They may be powerful, but it is also powerful to kill them. You can do so by simply outnumbering them, especially with a combination AT, fighters, and your own tanks.

King Tigers are the fastest tank in the game, but are very expensive. Why do you put speed on something that is already fast when it is expensive and mass pro is available.

Anyway, the topic is "can't beat king tigers". You mention you use the UK against your friend. The UK is one of he best nations to use to kill king tigers. When playing the UK, it almost isn't worth it to make bombers because of how much gold they cost. Fighters work better against tigers also. You will need many AT guns (anti-tank guns) combined with amphibious tanks (right click on the white phosphorus ability to use it automatically). Try to have the tigers engage the AT guns first, and after the AT are being fired at, send your amphib tanks and fighters. The tigers, unless your friend tells them what to attack, will continue firing at the AT, while the fighters and amphib tanks are doing the damage. Make sure you right click the white phosphorus or your tanks will be useless.

Are you sure about UK bombers being the best? You can't give them speed and they are very expensive compared to all other bombers. They have less health than USA and German bombers as well. Were you only leaving out the cost to decide that they are the best?

asparagus, any bombers do very little to king tigers. It is fighters that kill them. Giving your tigers mass production greatly decreases the cost, and giving your bombers speed allows them to reach their destination faster, as well as bombing a larger area of ground and the AA cannot chew them up as quickly if they are fast enough to bomb the AA.

Ok if you build a University, get RAF and then put Attack on them they get and attack of 320 per bomb they drop 3 thats almost 1000 damage, plus RAF makes them stronger and faster.

Does RAF make them faster? Stregnth would still be low, but for bombers speed and blast radius are most important.
True the UK bombers do tons of attack, but for 300 gold and some wood are they worth losing easily to enemy AA and having to build more? You won't enough money for good strong ground forces.

Not really a secret, we have been doing that since the demo.
