Bulletpoint Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 AT gun shot goes straight through M8 scout car, kills a crew member, but doesn't say "penetration" and doesn't leave a hit decal (neither entry nor exit hole)Following 2 shots both hit, give penetration messages, and leave decals.Savegame available if anyone's interested. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) Hmmm. Given the thin armor of light armored vehicles, that might not be entirely unrealistic, although the lack of hit decals is bothersome. Light armor would often not provide enough resistance to trigger any explosives carried by the shot. Same thing happened in naval warfare when destroyers and other unarmored ships would be hit by large caliber armor piercing shells that would pass right through without detonating.Michael Edited January 13, 2016 by Michael Emrys diction/spelling 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulletpoint Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 Yep, fully agree that the shot should be able to go right through it, but not without a penetration message and a decal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
