Tiger 1 Group Build
Welcome to the Tiger 1 Group build, currently, the time frame is unknown, so Im up for suggestions. I think we could also have a badge, so please,submit your ideas! Anyway...
This Group Build is, of course, dedicated to the Tiger 1. It will range from the intial to the final, anything goes, as long as its a Tiger 1 For those of you who are new to this whole Tiger 1 thing, the Tiger 1 heavy tank was considered to be one of the best tanks of its time, and is definatley one of the most famous AFV's of all time. Even today it is highly regarded as a great tank, although it did have its problems. These included an underpowered engine and a poor steering system, thins made the tank prone to breaking down. And thats my two cent history lesson! So lets get started!
