Who would win /k/?
>>29762548
Thirteen men can easily overpower a single tiger.
a few of them will be mauled to death however.
>>29762548
Thirteen shermans if armed with sabers
>>29762548
Break Shermans in half. Now have 26 Shermans. Shermans win everytime.
>>29762572
>13 men can kill a tiger with their bear hands
Is this bait?
>>29762585
No.
Thirteen men can easily overpower a fucking large cat.
Have you even thought this through?
O lol, I get it.
>>29762602
Implying 13 shermans wouldn't bicker among them selves and get ambushed by the tiger.
>>29762548
Each Sherman armed with a Colt Army Pistol and saber, which is what Sherman most likely carried while ass fucking the South.
Tiger gets full of led. Sherman returns to conquer the confederate industrial zones. Life returns to normal.
>>29762602
>>29762585
I think they could beat it to death if every single one of them had no fear of death and was perfectly willing to be mauled to death.
Otherwise cat wins
For those of you who don't get it, during ww2 a German tank general said: "The tiger(tank) could take 12 Shermans, however the Americans always brought 13."
>>29762669
It only took one 17pdr Sherman to destroy Whittman's Tiger.
>>29762585
13 men with bear hands would DEFINITELY kill that fucking tiger. Especially if the claws were included.
>>29762669
Yeah, but the Civil War catfight is more interesting.
>>29762548
Got another scenario for your OP.
One Panther vs One Hell Cat that's on a hill.
Joseph Stalin dukes it out with John Joseph Pershing.
Who would win /k/?
Fourty-two marines
vs
Thirty Navy SEALs
barehanded fight to the death
>>29762829
When the first blow connected, the entire world would be destroyed in an explosion of pure awesomeness and mustache.
>>29762548
It would take 13 Shermans to take on one stonewall jackson
>>29763025
>51mm
>open top
>getting hit by several 76.2mm
It would literally take one Sherman to fire it's 50 cal from an elevated position to kill Stonewall Jackson's entire turret crew.
>>29762829
I know both men were good at fighting Tigers. Too bad the faggot on the left was a pinko.
>>29762848
Meh, most Marines don't give a shit about MCMAP and I'm assuming SEALS have better unarmed training anyway. It'd be close due to numbers but I'll give it to the squids.
>>29762848
If they're Marine Recon or Sniper, they win by a long shot.
>>29762702
>>29763348
Heh. Quite literally
>>29763403
>>29763348
I said barehanded
>>29763418
I know...
How do you think the Romans got the lions into the coliseum?
They had armor, rope, and gumption.
>>29763732
>implying they didn't just chloroform them.
>>29763732
And slaves to do everything.
>>29763764
Niggers got to eat too you racist.
>>29762548
Tiger because Tiger Blood
>>29762548
Sherman... they'd stare the fucker to death.
>>29762829
My money is on the one that doesn't have a crippled hand
>>29763238
I don't think a Chairmen of the Soviet Union can be called a Pinko.

>>29762829
look at that hipster nancy boy
>>29762829
Fucking no-neck commie tank. You're a round little shit Stalin.
>>29762548
Sherman couldn't beat a tiger, but six of the Sherman could distract it while the rest burn down its cities and rape it's lion wives. The lion will lose hope and give up.

>>29762548
this isent a tank reference?
why is this not a tank reference?
This should be a tank reference.
>>29762829
Pershing was a cavalryman. Stalin took part in real up close dangerous shit while running a hella sick bolshevik gang of armed robbers
>>29762548
WHO WOULD WIN?
The entire CSA v. One Sherman
>>29771932
It is a tank reference
>>29772884
oh, ok.
>>29772174
Pershing was a cavalryman when it still required huge nuts to be a cavalryman.
>>29772191
What happens when it gets hit in the side from 75yards with a Napoleon gun?
>>29774433
It leaves a dent and bounces off. I doubt a Nap has the penetration strength for WWII armor.
>>29774528
Thats going to be a big dent.
A rifled gun might be able to do it at close range from the side but nothing shooting a round ball until you get to coastal fortress guns.
>>29772191
>>29774582
The thing is, the tank is going to break down or run out of ammo. You're literally killing 10,000-40,000 men. Bragg would have lost his nerve and ran. Lee would lost his nerve but eventually just sent out to raise more troops.
The Sherman will do some damage...a lot of it. It would send entire confederate Brigades into retreat. It would do better as an attacker against Richmond to kill all of it's fortifications.
Maybe it's only and best chance of success would be to storm into Confederate camp and kill all the head officers.
>>29774846
>The Sherman will do some damage...a lot of it. It would send entire confederate Brigades into retreat.
Literally single field gun. Civil War soldiers were accustomed to marching face-first into whole artillery batteries. Pickett's charge at Gettysburg, for example.
How long would it take for a Lee or a Jackson to look at that tank, understand it for what it was, and march their entire army right up its fucking ass? Two minutes? Three? Maybe four, if he was suffering from dysentery or some shit?
>>29775184
This isn't a cannon though. It's a mobile warmachine. Marching soldiers up to it would be like sending groups of people to tackle an 18 wheeler driving towards them.
The Sherman would have 3 machine guns. 2 30-06 guns shielded from the enemy, and one meat grinding 50 cal. Confederates walking up to something like that as they did in Picket's charge would be ludicrous.
Any machine gun on the Sherman would be more accurate than the rifle muskets the Union soldiers usually fired at the confederates. It's HE shell would be more destructive than any grape shot they previously encountered.
Only cannon hits to it's treads would help.
