but I think its gonna be a biggie...

"and the ability to see ricochets on non-penetrating rounds are some of the changes we're making here"

Look at any WWII footage of ground attacks and the first thing you notice is the ricochets flying all over the place.

sounds very, very neat.
I hope the new damage model makes the Yak9t cannon more deadly against panzers and ostwinds

heck, I hope they make every round more effective against the ostwind turret operator.

Nice call Vulcan...that stood out to me too.  I think that's going to be a real neat feature  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Just a quickie-

If one of those rounds ricochets off a ground object and strikes a friendly, will killshooter get you?

Not really a serious question, but it is food for thought...

I remember straffing the Yamato with a Hellcat in Pacific Air War.  There were ricochetes all over, AND it didn't sink! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)
