Hans Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 As I've gain experience with CMBB I have found that "T-26" is not an apt name for that marvy vehicle. So far the new names suggested are: Tracked target Dead meat (variant of easy meat) S**t tank Auto kill Grave for three Russians Mobile coffin Grenade bucket Flamer Shoot me please Unarmoured cockroach Italian ubertank 1 kill Russian mechanized fire magnet Bonobos first technology A committee's finest Tin clad tractor 'SPCV' Soviet population control vehicle Tanker crew's nightmare ATRs favorite Moving samovar Not worth a molotov Others? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pascal DI FOLCO Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 Are you all kidding ? The T-26 RULEZ ! In a PBEM QB I'm currently playing, a lone, regular T-26 sitting in a village shot one PSW222 AC after withstanding a hull penetration from the AC'popgun, then it toasted a 251/1 HT, then another AC that tried to get it by surprise scooting out of a hill.. It's now exchanging shots with a PzJag I, loooks like I get it but still unsure (death clock ...). I HATE T26s !!!!!! :eek: :mad: :eek: :mad: !!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruno Weiss Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 Rookies! Now, I got me a Ruskie T-26a thing-a-ma-bob and upon attempting to make it hunt a 20mm armored car it hopped out in the open, and realized its precarious position and retreated. Couple turns later I snucked him through some trees to a hull down position and he nailed the target without flinching. Can't use em like Gary Cooper in High Noon, ya gotta have some finesse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul T. Gardner Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 Regardless of peoples' views on the T-26, to answer the original question - my vote is with 'Tin Clad Tractor'. I also had a giggle at von luckes "My Other Tank is a KV-1". V.good! rgds 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V.good! rgdsTin-Clad tractor : I'd keep this one for the SiG-33, I think it destriys itself if it shoots less than 50m away !! And how would you call the great Uber PzJgr I, with its Czech gun and undoubtly Hawaiian armor ?(and not counting Hans & Fritz Gay Crew ) !

Just what does THAT mean?That is armor adapted to Hawaiian climate : doesn't protect from the sun, light and cool to wear... So it's to real armor what bathing suits are to real clothes :eek: !

gunnergoz Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 Lets all give it a rest now. The Russian tanks that we love to malign were hot in their day (which well preceeded 6/22/41) and were sadly out of date by the time the Germans caught them in their sights. Innumerable good men lost their lives in them trying to defend their native soil. A little respect is in order. Granted, the Germans at the time had precious little respect for these tanks, either. They called the BT series "mickey mouse tanks" because the two open turret hatches looked like mouse ears when the tanks were sitting there forlornly abandoned after being wasted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
