Bonito Posted January 22, 2001 Share Posted January 22, 2001 Hello, I just played 'walk in paris' and got most (about 10!) of my tanks destroyed by the panther in the center of the park. Well, but each time my men hit him (tanks and/or bazooka) it does ALWAYS give me a 'no serious damage' or '..ricochet..' Is it realistic? One Panther (veteran) against many allied tanks (even some veterans) and ALL allied one get crushed, but the Panther survived the slugfest? I did never get this with 1.05 .. maybe I miss something?

Forever Babra Posted January 22, 2001 Share Posted January 22, 2001 Sounds like a classic case of SHS (Stuff Happens Syndrome). You didn't mention what range or angle you were engaging the Panther from. Also, some of the angrier grogs will fly off the handle and stick pins in dolls of you for posting scenario "spoilers" without a warning... ------------------ Massada Lo Tipol Shenit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasd Posted January 22, 2001 Share Posted January 22, 2001 ***Contains some spoiler info about 'A Walk In Paris' Scen. Are you saying that your Shermans could not get a penertration on the frontal armor of the Panther? GOTTA BE A BUG! Try waiting for the reinforcements and shoot at their behinds and/or shoot at the Panthers from the side at close range with bazookas (dont expect a frontal penertration).

Loki Posted January 22, 2001 Share Posted January 22, 2001 Its coincidence. I have read all the treads on the 1.1 armor changes but have not read an account or seen this happen. If you play it 10 more times you'll get 10 different results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So im wagering it was one of those unlucky draws. So better luck next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
