Besides...the TC ought to aim for that turret anyway... -Sarge</font> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt CDAT Posted June 14, 2002 Share Posted June 14, 2002 Originally posted by Wolfe: I personally like Jeff Heidman's suggestion: if the enemy tank is IDed (even mistakenly) as a Tiger/Panther or heavier, always use the special rounds regardless of their scarcity. This would simulate a crew screaming the dreaded word "Tiger!" and doing their best to kill the menace before they themselves die. When facing a tough heavy tank a crew isn't going to worry about whether an AP shell *might* do the job; they're more likely than not going to grab the biggest, baddest ammo they have to try to kill the beast.I was in the army on M1A1(so i think like a tanker )and this is exactly what i would do :eek: if i saw, what i though was, a Tiger!!
