What are the ‘dragon teeth’ used for?
Dragon's teeth are one element of a defensive delay plan. It's never dragon's teeth alone, is dragon's teeth plus mines plus barbed wire etc.
The shape of the item itself is designed to get dragged under a tank, cut into the ground and then high point it. Which isn't a big deal by itself. But if there's observing fire, artillery, antitank weapons, infantry defending. Now it becomes a delaying item an extra obstacle that you have to deal with while assaulting a position.
A force multiplier
anti tank lines, not sure how usefull they are tho
