missinginreality Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 haha, thought I'd add to the bloopers; I had an AT squad with a Javelin in a building fire on a BMP; when the missile left the tube there was this funny kind of squelching burp and it fell about 40m infront. Wish I had a savegame game of that to watch over and over 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slug88 Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 I recently lost three crack T-90's to a single regular BMP-1 in a quick battle against the AI. Now that I've semi-recovered from that shock and partially coherent, I can describe the event. The first T-90 had just crested a hill, and was taken out by a Sagger from a hull-down, very well hidden BMP. The T-90 spotted the enemy just as the Sagger scored the one-in-a-thousand hit and knocked it out frontally. The next T-90 was driving up that same hill, but became bogged, presenting that same well-hidden BMP with a flank shot. Another Sagger launched, another T-90 knocked out. The third I had intended to position right next to the first T-90 that was lost, at the crest of the hill. Unfortunately, on it's way to that location, it was detracked by cannon fire from the BMP-1. A Sagger followed the immobilization, and history was made. Three Saggers, three dead T-90's, no shots fired by my side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVulture Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I imagine that must have been quite... frustrating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slug88 Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 Actually, it wasn't frustrating at all, it was very entertaining in fact. It was like watching someone get hit by lightning, repeatedly. Which can be entertaining if you know the person'll be fine, or if you don't particularly like him. Now, if it was a PBEM rather than a random QB... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your problem is using Lemmings stategy Why in the hell did you send them to their doom? Once your first tank was lost, you should have flanked that BMP! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkEzra Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Not to crow BUT.... My one T-90 took out 3 USMC M1's, 1 LAV ATGM and 1 LAV with in a 2 minute span. Both my PBEM partner and I were in shock and awe. Range under 1000 meters and the T-90 had a slight elevation advantage. Not a scratch on the T-90 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salwon Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 The moral: tanks should crest as one 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meach Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Better Moral: Tanks should not crest without scout support in the form of Infantry. Failing that tanks should flank not crest 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
