Panzer 38(t) Ausf. A

General Information
The Panzer 38(t) is the German starting tank in Steel Titans. Its tech tree upgrade in the Panzer IV Ausf. C.

Playstyle
Skirmisher Light Tank

Both models of the Panzer 38(t) are too slow to be effective in scouting roles. Instead, you serve best as a skirmisher, with fairly good armour and crew layout and a good gun. As a light, you can play more agressive tactics than slower skirmishers and spearheads, even dipping in some cases to using scout tactics like flanking and ambushing.

Panzer 38(t) Ausf. A vs. BT-5
Equal matchup. The BT-5 is slightly faster while the 38(t) has heavier frontal armour. Coming from head on, both tanks would be advised to aim at their opponent's turret ring, underneath the gun mantle. Both can easily penetrate hitting the side head on or from the back, but (importantly) not the side armour if the opponent has angled their tank. Usually whoever has superior positioning wins, or whoever can get off their shots the fastest.
