Title: Panzer abuse
Post by: Creto on July 07, 2002, 12:42:52 PM

Am I seeing things or is anyone else noticing the punishment a panzer can take now?  Ive been accustomed to the 'ping ping KABOOM' routine.  But just a few minutes ago after numerous attacks by Spitfires and 110's I left a panzer on the field of battle as nothing more than an out of ammo smoldering heap of junk with 8 kills.  I like it!

I have been killed many times, in panzer, where one hit is all it took. A/C, particularly dweeby spits, often auger when attacking the panzers front armor. These guys don't know the weakness of the armor, but worse they get fixated on shooting and forget  that the ground is undefeated. :D

Yesterday I killed 3 Pz IV - one i strafed with a 109g10, emptied the 30mm at 45 degrees and augered in panic when he fired back on the final pass. No damage on that Panzer, so I 500kged him on the next spawn.

Number two killed my CO Duedel, and I nailed him with 3x75mm AP to the front (2.5k range).

I turned for the flank, and as he respawned I shot him just between the tracks and upper hull into the side, he instantly went BOOM (1.5 k range).

Nothing wrong here, beside Panzers exploding on trcking across small rocks....
