Try doing a search on 'optics', 'gun accuracy' and the like.

It isn't "one-shot, one-kill". Taking out a tank depends on alot of factors. For example: Play an early-war game, and use German anti-tank rifles against Russian T-26 tanks. You might find that you need 15 or 20 penetrations to kill the tank. Whether or not the tank is destroyed by the hit is affected by lots of things - such as how much High Explosive charge is in the round which penetrates the tank. If you're only playing with Tigers, Panthers, IS-2s and T34/85s, then you will most often see one-shot kills. Play early-war or lighter tanks and things will be different.

Grrr!!! :mad: :mad: Am I not a happy camper. My game vs the Evil Hortlund continues to degenerate! One of my tanks has managed to immobilise itself in the wet conditions. The only plus point is that it has immobilised itself with good LOS to an area where Hortlund's T-34 is cowering Teddy Windsor has died from boredom waiting for something to happen in our game. It sucks and I blame MG for everything, including this thread.

That is a good point Which thread was that? Can you post a link. I don't think this discussion would be complete without some mention of Mean Maximum Pressure. -tom w</font>

"Not very effective"? Hmm. I have now lost four tanks to these "ineffective" weapons in a campaign on the CD which will remain nameless. I think they're under-rated.

Follow the link in my sig to the Forum's official FAQ. You should read it.

I agreed with both these points - I think Colonel_Deadmarsh is trying to race his tanks around too much. I would also like to see "shoot and scoot" changed from Fast/Reverse to Hunt/Reverse.

I've seen more effective flames at a Meeting of the Totally Pointless Flame attempts. If you want a game and someone to coach you, you only have to ask!

Updates: Hortlund is sitting on a big box of luck today. Lucky, lucky lucky luck luck. Oooh, I hate him and his lucky T-34. 14 turns have now gone by in my game against Teddy Windsor, and nobody has spotted no-one. Goodale, you are a twonk of the highest order. Never, ever darken my door again.

This is the most pathetic flame attempt I ever saw. Where's the bile and hatred? Hi mum. I am sorry to bother you, but could you possibly send me some fresh toothpaste. The boys in the dorm next door have stolen mine.

How does that negate the game engine? Take a close look at the Tiger's stats when you next use one. What information do you see?

And a big thanks from me, too. It makes the world of difference.

I don't know whether it's as simple as that. If you have the CDV version, a number of unit models are changed. Best post in the Tech Support Forum for a definitive answer. Updates: Teddy and I are on turn 12 and neither of us has fired a shot. Goodale, you are a goat-fellating nonce. This scenario is barmy. Hortlund has amused himself carving up my infantry with T-34s and is hoping to get lucky with a hand-pushed gun against one of my tanks. We shall see, indeed, what transpires.

I did this - although it took close to 10 hours of download time because CDV suck.

Something would happen if I wasn't waiting for the pair of pus-riddled twats I call my opponents to send me their turns.
