@JazzJaRa Yeah! I just read a book describing how Soviet T-34 crews, when they ran out of ammo during intense battles in WWII, would just ram their tanks straight into those Tigers. Those Soviet tankers had some guts.

@BlobTheBunny Yeah, can you imagine being a soldier on the ground and hearing that thing coming your way? "No thanks, not me, I'm outta here!" would be my response.
