At least some people agree with me!
Boys!
incredible range, quick bolt-action movement (unlike panzerbusche, with that one tanks/trucks will already have gotten out of sight before you can take that second shot). effective as an infantry sniper. and most important of all! it's sneaky! No trail or anything, perfect for the african terrain. jsut hide in a bus, behind a rock or in a crater.
Also, it takes out static guns with one show, only the 88 with 2 shots. in supercharge, one guy is enough to keep the two 88's out for as long as needed while tanks and infantry assault.
