Bismarck I am very disappointed in your strategic thinking. If speed is important why would you take a tiger?
Why not a Panzer III or Panzer II. They are faster and smaller. You could fit through the gaps of the trees a lot easier. Even the Panzer 38(t) would have been a better choice.

B-B-But how can you not want to travel in the COMFORT, SAFETY, and POWER of a (Porsche) Tiger? T_T

Because this Tiger has been remodeled by Great Nippon invention.
As a german I approve of this thinking. Also, for the record, I never officially went shopping in a Leopard and any pictures that prove otherwise are photoshopped.

Suuure...
It's mainly because you sleep all the time when in the tank. xP
I don't think trusting the Japanese for Tanks is something else.
Anyways, I do recall that Tanks move much faster in a road rater in off-road terrain, that might explains why it head pretty fast.
If WoT is to be believed,Japanese heavy tanks are the true living definition of the quote,"Roads?Where we going we don't need roads". Look at the O-ni if it doesn't convince you.
I was reading Keegan's "The Second World War" just yesterday, so this really made me laugh.
Germans going where French expect it the least is kinda a running gag for World Wars. 1: "Impossible they march through Belgium! This country is neutral, they are not going to violate its neutrality." 2: "Impossible they go through the Ardennes, too many trees and its hills are too steep. OH SHI-" 3: "No way they gonna try the Ardennes again... OH SHI- Come over here Americans!"

The history of the Maginot Line, as I understand it, goes something like this:
France: We're sick of this "Germany invading" shit. Gonna build a massive set of fortifications to make sure it NEVER happens agai- Belgium: Whoa whoa whoa. On our border? France: Um... yes? Belgium: The cheek! Are you suggesting we can't defend our borders? France: Well, can you? Belgium: Of course we can! France: ...Fine, we were getting a little over budget anyw- Nazi Germany: Guten tag! Belgium: Uh... Remember when we said we could defend our borders? Er, about that... France: Shit.

Nice way to put it. Makes it easy to understand for someone like me who doesn't know much of war history.
FFFFFOOOOOOOLS! GERMAN ENGINEERING IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD!
It might have been exquisitely engineered but tbh what is the point of sending an engineering marvel out to a place where a: it is going to be used frequently and b: it's going to get shot at?
This is why I think Russian engineering is better than that of us in the UK or NATO in general, at least their stuff works outside of lab conditions. Who cares if it's not pretty (but tbh Russian stuff is fucking pretty atm) if it works at -45 celsius for 72 hours at a time (50 years after it was built)?
