GVs in flames
« on: November 14, 2012, 10:23:48 AM »
Aeroplanes burn nicely when their fuel is lit up.  My wish is that GVs do as well when hit in their fuel tank, on occasion.

They did in RL.

There is a whole list of "damage" that is not being represented in AH's ground game.  For now, I believe they have tried to K.I.S.S., compare what can be damaged and to what degree can it be damaged.  There is no "partial" damage, it is all or none.  Engine, either working or not.  Track, either working or not.  Turret, all good or all damaged (why does damage automatically destroy both main gun and co-axial MG?).  The bow MG is ALWAYS working until the entire tank is destroyed.

I'd be the first one to drive full speed in tight circles while screaming "I'm ON FIRE!! SKREEEEE SKREEEEE" when I catch fire....
