has anyone tried to ram another tank with a t-34?
i remember seeing on the military channel that soviet tank crews would ram the tiger tanks because their guns would not penetrate the thick armor with the outcome in favor of the t-34.
i just want to know, has anyone ever tried to ram with a tank?

What do you mean by "has anyone tried"? I doubt there are any ppl who actually drived T-34 :lol
In WW2 tanks occasionally rammed other tanks or armored vehicles, not because they cannt penetrate opponent's armor though. In soviet side, most rams was done with KV and T-34, their victims was lighter tanks like PzII or PzIII usually.

You can't. Flying tank issues.

Collisions are off in gv's

Yes, better than nothing tactic when you're turret is out. Keep your enemy's VERY close.. So close they cant hit you.

Does the Jeep trick still work?

Inherent modeling/engine "flaw," so yes.

I consider it a trick since not everyone knows about it (at least new players). Just curious since I know there was a lot of whining about the issue.

You can ram planes. I've done this in an ltv4 that was turreted and all guns damaged. Got 3 kills while hiding in a hanger. Have done it in a long while though.

Actually, no. Fixed long ago.

As long as the tank has a driver and the vehicle on vehicle collision is off, it should still happen. The driver is the tank's "pilot."
I don't have an opportunity to verify at the moment

Look up the story of the French Sherman that rammed the Panther in the Place De la Concorde during the liberation of Paris. Its in the book "Is Paris Burning" for one. Most definitely a deliberate ram

i thought they patched it so you can't take a jeep and "go" inside of a lets say panzer and shoot the insides out? i used to love to do that!

this Jeep trick seems to be a cheap trick.... :)
back to topic:
I found something about the Rammtiger -> http://www.achtungpanzer.com/panzerkampfwagen-vi-tiger-p-vk4501p-porsche-typ-101.htm (scroll down page)
Some sources state, the Rammtiger should also ram other tanks. I found no really proof for that.

I rammed a landed, taxiying, goon in my M8 that had no guns at all left about a month ago,a first for me after 8 years or so, nearly fell out of my chair laughing <g>
