yes Thank you, not only do I have another GV to blast up, but something to drive in the rare instances I want to go GVing

You have to learn to take off in a plane before you can blow things up.  Just sayin'.

I see it comes with an axe to cut firewood at the campsite  :x

If we bail and run out of .45's can we take the axe off of a buddy's tank "1carbine wishes to take your axe type "allow 1carbine to take axe"   :x  :banana: :devil

75mm  what is that comparable to in game   looks like a short barrel?
Should be comparable to the 76.2mm gun on the T-34, except I doubt it will have HVAP available.

We would be able to use the main gun to aim the rockets?

Yes, the rockets pivot, and the rod/brace on the barrel points them to match the angle of the barrel. Barrel goes up, rockets go up. Barrel goes down, rockets go down.

Question is, if you can't fire the gun with rockets on, do you substitute your main gun for use of the rockets? Either/or situation?

What if it was the secondary fire instead of the hull gun. like you hit three and it gave you both instead of 2 and it gives you main and hull.

I sure hope it's modeled accurately, I've got hundreds of driver accounts saying the thing could turn inside a spitfire easily.

You miss the point. The main gun couldn't be fired with this contraption in place. Does that mean HTC modeled it realistically? Or did they fudge things a bit?

The rocket tubes were able to be removed fairly quickly by the crew.  So in a case where either 1) they had fired all their rockets and needed to stay in the fray or 2) found themselves in a situation where they needed the gun, they would remove the apparatus and free the gun up for use.

In the game, I imagine there will be a way to drop it if you launch with it.

That remains to be seen.   :aok

Don't say stuff like that unless you have a chance at backing it up. You've died to ground defenses 12 times and haven't kill one...yet. That is NOT expert.

If you enjoy people trashing you on the boards, just keep posting stuff like this  :rolleyes:
