Awww gawd... don't do this to me... you know I would only drive a Crusader if I wanted to commit suiside! Jeez… what do you take me for... a complete idiot
Do you want honest reply?
Joking aside, XIX tank corps is one of the finest opponents I have privilege to meet in ground! Despite crappy tanks you guys always put up a good fight!
all you have to do is take a couple of squadies with you in Panzer IV Ausf H or J to keep those nasty T-34 red star guys away from your flanks. A man of your calibre should be able to organise that fairly easily
Hmm, I guess youre right, we can deny opponet taking advantage of our weaknesses by clever tactics. It is such a shame that there is not nearly as much books about tank tactics as there is about air combat tactics.
I don't know about my caliber, most of my kills are from hull down position and from top of the hill near enemy base
Hey congrats... I've never had a kill streak running into 88... that's a big thumbs up from me. The nearest I ever came was 53 all in allied vehicles which then came to an end when a "firefly" dweeb bagged me in a hull down position some 2000m away... I never knew what hit me until it was all over... felt as sick as a parrot. Wish I could do aswell as you... whats your secret? Don't tell me... drive a Tiger... right?
Heh, Tiger IE period is best time for Wehrmacht dweeb and I surely take advantage of it
Early war is very challenging (PzKw IIC and IIIE against Matilda II, oh joy
) and late war is pretty hairy also because of Fireflys and faster than lightning Comet and Challenger. Also last day of ToD with M-26 Pershings (Tiger killer nick is not a joke) and uber JS-II's and JS-III's is a real challenge.
Nice streak you got! I bet I can never achieve anything like that in British tanks!
That 76.2mm ROQF (Royal Ordnance Quick Fire) gun firing that ridiculous high velocity shell is just way way overmodelled.
Well, You guys deserve atleast one decent gun in your arsenal
Come to mention it you say the muzzle velocity on your 88mm is porked... try hitting "shift-a" next time and loading some AP40 shot... 915m/s muzzle velocity will make quick work of any T-34 dweeb ... but be careful you only carry 7 of them!
Argh! And now you tell me! I have fight last ToD against Soviet uber behemoths with ordinary AP rounds! No wonder I have had dificulties with them
Thanks, will try them out as soon as I get home.
I really think your pissing in the wind on this one... the infra red sights were never used in anger during WWII and I doubt whether Pyro would model it.
My evidence migh be anecdotal at best but I still think IR should be available on last day of ToD
Did you know that the pretty much same IR device was first used in Bf 110C-4 nightfighter in early war?
Give me manoevrability over a big gun any day... especially when the new map gets completed with lots of ground features... then we will see who the "real" men are
Heh gosh, youre right
Long range gunnery will be non issue everywhere but in Ost front arena and will demand more tactical thinking from Tiger and Panther commanders than before. But I think we will manage
As for that Tunisia campaign I really do think we should force people to swap sides and replay the campaign. It would be really nice to make people realise what life is like when the shoe is on the other foot. You try taking on a Tiger in a Crusader or that stupid Churchill piece of crap... bloody hell... cannon fodder that's all we were...
Umm, if there is another run of this campaign with switched sides, I think I can call meself sick already
