Which ever early war tank you choose, it's going to have major deficiencies. Pz 38t might have the best actual combat record, mostly due to its reliability.

>>34008141
The fifth one has to be either a second generation MBT or an interwar tank.

The S35 is like the best interwar tank.

If you wanted to go full ouiaboux, you could pick the Char B1.

Here.

I'll trade my T-55 for your Centurion if we can agree on the T-72A.

It falls short on important things like crew configuration and actually having any way to see.

>>34008179
I'd be lying if I said I knew that much about interwar tanks.

If it isn't the French, I'm assuming the best one would be some kind of Czechnology.

>>34007119

But... That's not even a tank! It's just a chassis with Bren gun stuck on top!

Pz 38t was the redesignation of the Czech LT vz.38.

It wasn't exactly stellar in any way. The gun was reasonable, but far from the best. Armour was a hazard to the crew due to failing so catastrophically on hits. Speed was just normal. Crew configuration over burdened the commander.

As I said before, it would rarely fail, which is more than can be said for most tanks.

Only one of those is classically a tank, and not even a well regarded one at that.

>>34008141
>Pz 38t
I've a soft spot for that little tank, so lets add it to the list. Anything but the S35

He didn't claim that.

All the points he made about it are literally true.

I'm entirely unsurprised the TOG 2 was his #1. Also a lot of what he said was just repeating things previously said by David Fletcher and David Willey.
Not that that doesn't make Jingles any less entertaining, he's always admitted he's not an expert and that he frequently gets things wrong. Still a comfy and fun guy to watch/ listen to.

the man is a self proclamation non-historian. The man likes what he likes, and he likes fun.

They might get the T-62 active again one day but their workshops are currently running maintenance on the existing collection.
But it's still ridiculous how they can have a fully-functioning Tiger I and no Soviet cold war MBT's.

>>34012008
This and he was in the Royal Navy, not the Regulars.
He also says that'll he always be likely to be corrected in the comments of his videos.

I should feel bad for Jingles since he: is in his forties, looks like he's in his seventies, has no real job, no wife or gf (only an Ex-fiancee who still lives with him), and can't own too many real guns.
But at the same time I can't feel bad for him since he: Has so much cool stuff and tons of money to spend on it, lives with his 20 something year old ex and still seems to be great friends with her, gets to make videos about whatever he wants and tell stories, travels and gets invited places, has an awesome voice, just loves what he does.

Being Jingles is s̶u̶f̶f̶e̶r̶i̶n̶g breddy gud

>>34012133
I haven't been watching Jingles much lately, but are you referring to Rita? Also I'm pretty sure Jingles is in his 50s.

>>34012133
Isn't he fucking Rita?

>>34012156
>>34012158
Yes. They were engaged for a bit and then she called it off.
They still live together and hang out though so it seems like no hard feelings between them.

Though he's not wearing the correct colors for his chosen tank.

He's not wrong you know. Soviets invaded a lot of countries but never invaded the countries with S tanks.

>>34014512

It's a joke.

>>34014517
That's it. I'm sick of all this "Masterwork Koenigstiger" bullshit that's going on in /k/ right now. S-Tanks deserve much better than that. Much, much better than that.

I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine Strv 103 in Sweden for 24 reindeers (that's about $20,000) and have been practicing with it for almost 2 years now. I can even cut slabs of solid steel with my S-Tank.

Swedish smiths spend years working on a single Stridsvagn and fold it up to a million times to produce the finest vehicles known to mankind.

S-Tanks are thrice as deadly as soviet tanks and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything a T-14 can cut through, a S-Tanks can cut through better. I'm pretty sure a Strv 103 could easily bisect a M1A2 SEPv3 with TUSK II at maximal range.

Ever wonder why medieval Warsaw Pact never bothered conquering Scandinavia? That's right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined S-Tanks and their L74/62 of destruction. Even in World War II, American soldiers targeted the men with the S-Tanks first because their killing power was feared and respected.

So what am I saying? S-Tanks are simply the best tank that the world has ever seen, and thus, require better recognition. Here is the stat block I propose for the d20 system [...]
