Title: Karnak may have been right after all
Post by: Sabre on May 09, 2005, 12:26:09 PM
Something does indeed seem amiss with the T-34's main gun.  I was in the MA last night and parked inside an enemies hanger, basically camping their VH (yes, I camped it...now get over it).  An enemy T-34 popped up and we exchanged at least four rounds at point blank range and didn't even damage each other.  Than an enemy Panzer-IV creeps around a building 8 or 9 hundred yards a way and pops me on the second shot.  Mind you, I was shooting at that enemy T-34 from his rear, not his front armor.  While gv action has been somewhat lacking in the CT, I believe I will go ahead and enable the Pnzr-IV for the Red Army when I get home from work today.  T-34 still seems better armored than the P-IV, but that only means you die a little slower.

Think it's something about being in the vh. I upped a panzer yesterday just as our field was captured, figured I'd be a dweeb and hang out in the vh waiting to surprise the unsuspecting.

Tiger comes around the corner and parks - I pop off 2 or 3 shots at point blank range - puffs of dirt but nothing more. He re-ups and reverses, same story only this time he fires and also raises dust only. After he backs away a little more, he fires again and I die.

Today in the MA I hit an LVT2 point blank in the side and rear 6 times with the T-34 gun and no damage that I could see. T-34 is a total POS.

T-34 is in no way a threat to a Tiger unless he's the bait for someone better armed.
