8.8cm Flak Sonderfahrgestell
« on: September 19, 2006, 02:51:20 PM »
This is what we need, a german 88 mounted on what looks like a panther base.  Great for tank destroying as well as detroying towns.  With the additon of anti aircraft rounds, it would force bombers to a higher altitude when attacking a vehicle base.

Sorry, could not locate any web based pictures of the 8.8cm Flak Sonderfahrgestell.

I think the same thing. After all, a flak 88 would be awsome for taking out tanks, ships, bombers in one shot, ect! or is it a russain gun... ('_')

Yes, the need for the 88 is long overdue, IMO







Would be great for defense against Armor and bombers.

Yes, but make it so you have to type in .alt and then the altitude it detonates at. Make it more complicated ;)

I'm with you here - there's an 88 mounted on the Sdkfz1 halftrack that looked pretty good as well.  There is a definite need for some real mannable field acks, plus the 88 works good as a tank killer and artillery.

Just watch the tiger-noobs cry as you erradicate them with the 88s. Next you know it will be perked twice as high as a tiger.

not likely, it seems to have very light armor.

Yes, but it will only take one hit on a tiger to kill it. THAT will make the n00bs cry.

This will make them fly like that, because it will only take three clicks with a good gunner and the whole formation is gone.
