You should have got a Fw.190A8 and turned his vulching but into catfood.  I do think some flak like howitzers should do the trick to.  Not enough to kill, but enough to give him something to think about.

Will the new 1.03 88s shoot at tanks, I know the Germans shot at everything with 88s.

German Anti Aircraft Battery: "Look a Plane, Fire!"

German Anti Aircraft Battery: "Look a Tank, Fire!"

German Anti Aircraft Battery: "Look a Soldier, Fire!"

German Anti Aircraft Battery: "Look a Duck, Fire!"

German Anti Aircraft Battery: "Look a Nun, Fire!"

Yes the 88 Multipurpose Gun!

(Later on the U.S. took to using 155s like this also, except I never read of them using a 155 on anything that was flying.)

The rear armour on the tank was fixed and  the uber-cannons on the 1C were (apparently from what I can tell) tamed,A german tank should be able to take some hits from 20mm, so try to shoot it from the rear.

The best anti-tank weapon in the game is another tank.

Rear fields usually don't have enemy tanks nearby.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

One could always try dropping bombs on them.
