So, I picked up 5 Tigers in a deal and have really no idea what to support them with. I don't play much LW and have never played a Heavy Tank Co. before.

Anyone familiar with Schwere Panzer Co. have any idea what good support options would be? I'm thinking of using the regular Schwere lists from eith Earth & Steel or Grey Wolf.

I'd imagine a platoon of armored SPAA would be pretty helpful. It's useful in its primary role and it should also help out with mowing down infantry and in providing defensive fire for assaults.

All i play is Late War here is kinda a quick list from GRey Wolf for tank companys.

Kampfgruppe Bake
Is a company choice with PAnthers,
Support
Half track AA
HAlf track scouts

Schwere
lots of aa half track and tracked
motor cycle scouts
king tigers as combat platoons

Also in GRey wolf you may use them for Hungarians.As combat Platoons if that interests you.Also i probably missed a few but that is a rough list.

SP AA and recce elements. Some cheap arty to dump smoke, and maybe a platoon of some type of infantry (Mech. or motorizied PGs.)
