Vacillator Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) You two should get a room. I must stop saying that. Anyway, here's proof (I think) that the driver did not have to jump in a ditch while t'others were doing their business. But it also proves that he felt the need for something a bit more protective.

It's nice to see that David Fletcher found a new career after the the acting parts dried up. He is his magnificent Mr Walrus from 1932. https://youtu.be/N7VUU_VPI1E 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuckdyke Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 It was a clever idea; you get to an alternative fire position quickly. To reverse for the final set up is not much of a problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recently criticised for being 'American-ish', but as we (Queen's Englishers ) already have 'ill-gotten gains' I imagine that's not justified? If there's anyone I could ask I thought it might be you? And we can get back to 17 pounders and doing it in a ditch in just a moment... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a blooming great 17pdr pointing at Walter Gabriel's farm. "What more do you want, jam on it?" As my old dad used to say. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To reverse for the final set up is not much of a problem. I've found Archers a bit fiddly to use in-game, but they're certainly not an inferior AFV. Anything with a 17pdr is best used with maximum stealth, since nearly every Allied vehicle is vulnerable to any German tank from PzIV upward; and since 17pdrs are usually hunting Tigers or Panthers, the trick is to be just outside the edge of LOS, stationary, waiting for a glimpse, which hopefully is enough for a single kill-shot. Archers can do this as well as Fireflies and Achilles, they're just take a little more practice, with the whole reversing thing... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would use the as an area denial weapon keyhole them on the end of a highway. It is not a tank-hunter more an ambush weapon. The moment you move you give your position away. It is not capable of shoot and scoot like the American Hellcat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
