HTC, please check panzer APs

Oh speaking of the Pak 40, I know the number of rounds needed to kill a structure was increased for some of the calibers found on vehicles (namely the FV 37mm on the Ostwind)

But it still only takes like 150 rounds (which is a bit excessive I'd say, but for gameplay's sake)

OTOH it took me 35 HE 75mm shells to kill a hanger, 5 for other resources, and ungodly amounts of AP ammo (which still explode anyway   )to kill anything (put 82 rounds in a BH and it was still up)

Kind of limits the reasons to take a Panzer over an Ostwind even further, eh?

I saw this exact same thing anytime I ever tanked- therefore I tank no more.

Once again. Shoot low. You can kill a tank most every time if the sprite is low in the hull. Hitting in the upper hull or turrent is a waste of ammo. Aspect does not matter. All that matters is hit him low.
Its not realistic as HT has acknoledged..but that is the way it is for now.

Pongo, that is me, Fariz, not some 168525 --first day player.

If I say it does not work, I mean it. I play this game from tour 1 and if I say it then I checked every possible spot every possible angle and every possible distance.

Your comment just gives me another prove that this problem did not impact all the players.

Anyway, let wait 1.07. Something tells me it is out very soon, can bet it is 2 weeks
