'''119's "Achtung Panzer!" Edges'''


 * Heavy Armor: In terms of firepower, both the Tiger and Edelweiss carry an 88mm main gun, however, while I am not sure, the name suggests that the Edelweiss carries a gun at that is 40 calibers long (40 times the bore diameter), while the Tiger's 88 is 56 calibers long. A longer barrel means greater muzzle velocity, giving an advantage to the Tiger, though the varied rounds of the Edelweiss will come in hand, neither will be useful for directly destroying a tank. While the exact amount of armor isn't know, given that the Tiger weighs over 20 tons more than the Edelweiss, it is almost certainly more heavily armored. The one area where the Edelweiss will have an advantage is speed, traveling twice as fast as the lumbering Tiger. Still, in the end, I give a slight edge to the Tiger for its superior armor and firepower.
