Backguard

Exactly 2.7 meters

27-29 years maximum if he was a sergeant and up to 47 years if he was an officer. Most likely 19-20 years old

In game - 1500m

DPolwarth do you drove this tanks from driver seat or just sat down in commander station? Any guy who directly droves this tanks will say tha t you are wrong. T-34 you hardly can run with 50 kmph (on straight concrete road), when the T-72 easy makes 60 and smoothly speeds up T-72 also has 6 gears (T-34 only 5) and much easier in maneuring (thanks to "bortovie korobki peredach"). T-55 also has his own features... Just pay some attention when you drive your babe

Use Page Up/Page Down for TC sight zoom. Cheers

Yes, that's the matter - this one infantryman moved into your village... Gotcha! He won

No way - only devs know method. I often think - why "devs" sounds much like "devils"? Just kidding

1500m

Look in configurator -> "Realism" -> "Real view from tank" (or somewhat like this) set to "Yes". Or simple set high level of realism

Yup! The T-54/55 is really simple in use tanks (first models designed in 1946-1947) and you shouldn't elevate barrel to reload gun. Well, I'm not pretty sure about latest models (designed in 1980s). About loaders and autoloaders: you should remember that alive guy will get tired soon enough and couldn't support such fire rate as 3 sec for shot He must take an ammo (30-40 kg each round {I'm not sure about weight}) and put it in gun (and he must aware not lost his fingers "evil grin"). Still he need to remove empty shells (if any) and place it back on shelves/containers... I even don't say a word about British tanks with rifled-barrel guns and compound ammos... Any of system (loader or autoloader) has it's merits and demerits. But AFAIK the development of tanks (at least in Western countries) is directed at creation of tank with crew of two men (driver and TC). Drive drives, TC finds targets, AI hits them, autoloader reloads the gun SFMBE

Well, AFAIK, you can give orders ONLY the guys under your control (all in same time). If you see they not submit your orders - they are under AI command. In briefing you'll see that units (if any) is under your command.

2 Brian: I saw this mission it seems that your T-72 have no zooming for gunner sights (like in first career missions). So I suppose you just have no smoke charges, additional armor and "digging knife" as well Try tutorial missions - you'll see all this beauty things in action

You're right...

No, I managed to survive somehow ("Miracle! Miracle!" cried everyone).

Well... I played Russian game, and yes it's a bunch of fun. No, speed of repair affected only by you Tankers're not leaving the tank to make repair, so they cannot be harmed
