Yes, and the responses indicate the genre is consumed with the lowest form of life; most of the responses lack the wit to even be original.

Does it have to match letter for letter or can we get away with appending the end of it, Mr. Nash?

Let me put it this way. If I can't go in and research your in-game stats to somehow place a value on your words based on like, kills per hour... How can I possibly trust you? No, you will be ignored.

Additionally, if your handle has something that looks like this: _

as in x_x_x

Congratulations. You have risen above the ignoring stage and have landed smack dab in the middle of ridicule.

Don't blame me. I don't make the rules.

Btw, Mr. Sandman_SBM... oh inquisitive one... I notice that you don't appear on any HTC log. Bzzzzzzt. Consider yourself ignored.

In my experience, calling someone a "MORON!" is the best way to persuade them to do what you want.

Doubtful Voss, I wrote an article and posted it in regards to tanking back around V1.04 or so.

Also, how to make missions, how to join missions, etc. etc.

More doubtful is that a noob would take the time to revisit posts that far back.

Why don't you repost it?

i agree 100% percent with voss
(never thought i'd ever say that)

sitting next to a tree or bunker with engine off listening to a gv grinding it's way to you is very soothing.

add to this no tracers (in an osty)
and you can get a little more time to get a bead on the tgt.

or better still let off a few rounds at a set point to range the gun in.

i've also found that if you are in a panzer
fire 2-3 rounds  directly  in front of you at minimum range and then drive into the craters.

it does sometimes make you a little more differcult to hit   maybe a bug i'm not sure.

re: powered turrets...

AFVs with powered traverse always had a manual traverse backup.

In most German AFVs, there was a 2 crank system so a 2d crewman could help the gunner manually traverse the turret more quickly.

Turret traverse speed should drop maybe, but then again it should be very fast with 2000 rpm applied to the engine (German MBT drivers were trained to 'rev up the engine' as they slid into firing position in order to give the gunner plenty of traverse power.

'FYI'

They're post- expired, you can't repunt them after a certain time...Leph has got one of them up on his training web page.

Realistically u should not be able to hear someone else’s engine running as if they were parked 5 feet away.  

  AH should make a distance and db level that would be realistic.  
:D

Good Huntin
