What's the Difference?
« on: March 06, 2009, 10:51:46 AM »
Been using the T-43/76 lately as it's 10MPH faster that the PanzerIV. However I'm not noticing the difference between AP and HVAP damage. What's the difference?

HVAP = High Velocity Armor Piercing
Better penetration vs armor @ up to ~ 1500 yds

That would explain it....most engagements I seem to be in are over 2000 yards. Kinda of disturbing when you put 6 rounds into a Panzer or T-34 at that range and nothing happens

If you like the t34-76, then use it but i suggest using it in engagements under 1,500.  The panzer is effective at any range really if you dont have the perks, but try a t34-85 it doesnt cost much and its an awsome tank.
