Title: Comet Tank Troop
Post by: Heedless Horseman on 04 November 2020, 05:00:34 AM
Sorry, I am VERY lazy and should look it up myself...but, seeing as I, currently, have no plans to field a Comet unit...just curious?  ;D

Troops of 3 or 4!? 

With 77mm, shouldn't need Challengers or Fireflies as support, BUT?  :-X And what about HE/Smoke support?  95mm Cromwells?

Hmmm... and what about the early Centurions?

I MUST NOT think about a 1946/47 period!   :'(

Sometimes, it is so much easier to ask...and receive the knowledge of others!  ;)  :)    ...esp at 5am!   :'(

4's in 11th, 3's after the war. Except 7th AD had troops of 2 + 2 Fireflys.

Sorry for the late reply, but yes, as Lord Kermit says, Comet Troops had four tanks until the end of the war.  SHQ Troops included a pair of Cromwell VIII 95mm CS tanks.
