    German Tactics against Russian tanks needed

    in Combat Mission - Tips and Tricks

    Posted

    What is the best tactics for German tanks against Russian ones in 1942?

    In the Stalingrad Pack scenario “When Worlds Collide” the PzIIIJ’s are no match for the T-34’s…simply they cannot penetrate them while being easily penetrated by the Russkies.

    I tried to counter the T-34’s with the StuGIIIF’s at a distance of 1100-1200 mts being confident that their superior optics would have helped, but the duel between 2 StugIIIF’s and 4 T-34’s ended with the loss of the Stug’s and 1 T-34 being penetrated twice.

    I’m not sure that the optics is consistently modelled, simply I haven’t found any great advantage for the Germans.

    "My greatest hope is that we encounter a favorable tactical situation, but if we don't and worst comes to worst, I want each one of us to do his utmost to destroy our enemies. If there is only one plane left to make a final run-in, I want that man to go in and get a hit. May God be with us all. Good luck, happy landings, and give 'em hell!" - John C. Waldron, Pre-battle message June 3, 1942,

    At Midway, the pilots of Lt Cmdr John C. Waldron's Torpedo Squadron 8 flew on to attack in the certain knowledge that they were beyond return range. Attacking unescorted against heavy A.A. fire and fighters, they were all shot down. They have become justly famous for their bravery in pressing the attack. But they deserve to be equally famous for their bravery just in flying the mission. Even had they survived the attack they could not have returned to their carrier.

    LOS really free?

    I noticed in v101 and v102 a strong tendency for tanks to hit in several cases a point amidst the line of fire when they have a red LOS....and the amidst pont is always hit as if it were the real target point :confused: . This seems to me very unrealistic...no spread....no chance to hit the real target...very very boring...you have to move your firing tank to another point hoping that you find a real LOS :rolleyes:

    Is this bug corrected in v103?...I remember they said it would be....I wish to be assured ;)
