Too heavy. The Maus was smaller and that struggled. Bridges certainly couldn't support leviathans like that so there would be strategic disadvantages to employing massive armoured vehicles of this size, especially at a time when fuel was becoming scarce. An entertaining idea, but to all intents and purposes, science fiction.
As far as I remember these monsters were only meant as mobile coastal defence guns, not as tanks. Ground pressure would have been enormous leading to bogging down in even mildly soft terrain.

It would be like a slow ship - an easy target.
Reminds me of the WH40K Guard Baneblade...
Big beasts. Super Heavy's. Slow, Lumbering, and damn tough
God i used to play that many moons ago :roll:
I hate these big massive "what if" German tanks... the Maus was not much bigger than (well sorta) than the Tiger II and it struggled due to how heavy it was.
It is why these were never put into production and why I hate them. I'm open to 1946 stuff but things that were unable to be made or put into use in even
1947/48 gets a -1 from me.
However mod wise I wouldn't d/l it but I' sure there is a large majority who would love this kind of thing!
