Tips
The Pz.38t is the only german light tank armed with a single shot cannon, making it the only effective option when it comes to fighting heavier tanks.
The Pz.38t is very effective against infantry and infantry vehicles thanks to its rapid-firing main cannon and fast, deadly coaxial MG. It also has a decent hull MG for a separate gunner.
With a maximum thickness of 50mm, the Pz.38t has decent armor for a light tank. It can occasionally bounce off incoming rounds from small-caliber tank guns frontally.
Keep in mind that the Pz.38t is rather slow in acceleration and top speed, resulting in it often being outflanked by faster light tanks. It also has limited climbing abilities.
The Pz.38t can out-DPM(damage per minute, overtime damage)other similar light tanks as its cannon has a slightly faster reload.
The Pz.38t's turret protection is poor and often has to face cannon breech issues. Try to wiggle your turret after each shot to make it harder for the enemy to destroy your cannon breech.
