Has anyone else notice the "88" on the side of Panzers? Interesting. For those that don't know, scumbags (oops, I mean skinheads) use the number 88 as a symbol. The reason being H is the 8th letter of the alphabet. HH = Heil Hitler.
I noticed that as well. I also had to look into skinheads recently and found out that they are not racists. Racist skinheads represent only one faction of skinheads. In fact one of the most well known skinhead groups is an anti-racist group. I didn't know this before either. Just so you know, using skinhead to mean racist is ignorant. I was surprised when I found this out because I just assumed skinheads were racists as well. Look on wikipedia for more info.

Panthers had 75mm guns. But they were of such velocity that they were almost as good as an 88.
Depends on which 88 you're talking about. The Panther's 75mm KwK 42 L/70 was slightly superior to the Tiger I's 88mm KwK 36 L/56 , but not nearly as good as the Tiger II's 88mm Kwk 43 L/71.
The unit graphic seems to be a Panther, which never mounted the 88...oh, well.
We are building a fighting force of extraordinary magnitude.

HH also happen to be my initials. And Frederic is my current favourite. Coincidence?

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all.

I seem to recall 88 being the tank of some "ace" tank commander...
Doubtful...most Panzer battalions used 3-digit turret numbers (Company #, Platoon #, Tank #). A few omitted the company #, but they'd be no higher than 44 (4th platoon, 4th tank). If 88 was ever used, it'd probably be a command tank.

Slipped over from the Battlefront forum, no doubt.
