Title: Curious
Post by: LCCajun on April 16, 2009, 12:35:04 PM
Are t-34's really tough enough to take 10 direct hits from a panzer with ap rounds. Last night I was shooting at this guy and could see that I was getting good hits. Also there was another rook hitting him to eventually he died. Before ya'll say he had supplies he was at our town that we had just taken, and I know that there were no supplies.

Also lately it seems that if I am in the same exact tank that and enmy is in. I can hit him twice and won't get a kill, but he can hit me once and I die. I haven't been lagging so I don't think it is my connection. Can anybody help me figure this out <S> and thanks.

T34's have the best sloping armor of any tank in WWII.

The History Channel Special voted it #1, mainly because of the tater size and sloping armor.

When I see a T34--I try and hit it in the superstructure--in the side, inbetween the track wheels.  Usually get 1 hit kills.

When I hit it in the front or on the turret--I can't kill it for jack.

Good Luck!

I was hitting it in the front but the other guy had side shots. I just figured 10 hits in the front should kill it. I know it has the best front armor, but damn lol. I was gonna manuver around but figured if I kept him busy on me the other guy could kill him which eventually happened. <S> and thanks.

True about the frontal armor but the darned turrets on our T-34/85 seems to be made of glass.  Heck, I think if somebody fired smoke and hit the turret in our T-34/85's. you would loose the gun. :mad:

All the Best...

I was defending a vbase with my tiger a week ago when a T34 ran behind one of our hangars. Since there were two of us bish there we had him pinned in place and both of us were slowly creeping forward to get a shot on him. I was firing HE around the corner to harass him into moving when the other bish finally got into a firing solution but he accidentily selected smoke and fired it and the T34 exploded.  :D

You can hit a T34 in the turret all you want. You will only turret it.
