eniced73 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Drunkin' driving will impair your ability to fight effectively in battle. Old Hans and his crew from a wild night out was in no shape to drive their King Tiger into battle. Wilhem insisted that he can do anything since he is "ELITE". Even drive a King Tiger!!! You following me! Uh-Oh!:eek: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathangun Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Is that a infantry Bn HQ in the Tiger ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
costard Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Does that show that 16 guys can hitch a ride on a KT? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eniced73 Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 That shows that I can purchase a very poor conscripted King Tiger and then replace the crew with a very highly skilled Elite HQ unit. Cannot do this in game only during setup. Must be a side-effect of having tank riders or something?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
costard Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Yeah, got that bit - nice move. Did you dismount your crew first or did the Battalion HQ just kick them out of their ride? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eniced73 Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 Dismounted the crew and then slapped the HQ on top of the tank to hitch a ride and they decided to climb right in. Will be nice in game if your crew panics and leaves their ride. Now if they can get this to work with ATG's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeFF Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Good one! I just tried it as well with an HMG platoon HQ. They will first climb onto the back of the tank, and then a moment later they will move inside the tank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Now we see why BFC wanted to wait a little longer before releasing the game. There's always one more glitch that got away. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanir Ausf B Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 For some reason, I doubt that is intentional. It's been reported as a bug. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eniced73 Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 Throw a flame team in there just in case they have to bail from a close assault. Would give the surrounding infantry a nice little surprise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
womble Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Throw a flame team in there just in case they have to bail from a close assault. Would give the surrounding infantry a nice little surprise. [guffaw] What happens if you put a tank rider group larger than the crew size onto the crewless tank? Do some of the riders take up the crew seats, like they do on jeeps and halftracks? Can you actually operate the tank with the HQ? ISTR being unable to drive trucks around without their actual driver being on board. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eniced73 Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 Anything larger will not work. They will not mount the inside seats to operate the tank. Anything the same size or smaller will work. Yes, you can actually operate the tank without any of the original crew aboard. If you have three of the four seats occupied, start the game, and then give the original crew a mount order one member will try to mount that seat but instead will just stand there and do the twitch thing. Seems he is wanting to jump in that seat but is confused as to who the other members inside the tank are. Crazy bug as you could buy poor conscript tanks and mount them with highly skilled elite HQ's that cost hundreds of ponts less. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
