Self-Propelled Guns
SPGs have thin armor but immense firepower. With the ability to hit targets anywhere on the map from nearly any location, even under cover, SPGs can turn the tide of a battle in the blink of an eye.
Basic Tips:
- To cause the most damage, coordinate with scouting teammates to hit hard to reach enemies previously hidden on the map.
- Location, location, location. Ideal placement of your SPG is within cover, but without obstruction so you can see everything on the map without being spotted by enemies. You have weak armor, so stay within friendly territory.
- Think before you shoot. You pack huge firepower but it can take time to reload so choose your targets wisely.
