__Yossarian0815[jby] Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Some pics from the last second of a current PBEM game I´m playing. Will the Challenger survive or not? in this turn it´s still alive. Not sure if CMSF allows for schrödinger cat uncertainty (I won´t know myself till I´ve sent and received the next turn) 1 sec to turn end turn end different angle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryujin Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Looks like a glancing hit to the top armor by an AT-3, I'd bet on "alive, but with damage to the expensive bits up there". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hcrof Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 That's no AT-3, its not stubby enough. My guess is an AT-7 or AT-13. Either way, Ryujin is probably right, I think your tank has survived that one! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmar Bijlsma Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Track damage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taki Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Its a UBER Coalation Tank (as modelled in the Game). Survived i gues with some minor dmg or Trackdmg. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clavicula_Nox Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Its a UBER Coalation Tank (as modelled in the Game). Survived i gues with some minor dmg or Trackdmg. You think the vehicles in game have too much survivability? Funny, I always think they are too fragile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taki Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 The US and UK Tanks are really strong. Bit too strong in my Opinion. But hey, thats just my Opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivodsi Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Yeah, I had a similar case with my Kornet exploding above my enemy's challenger, but much to my disgust the damn thing was alive and kicking the next turn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Joch Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I would bet there may be damage to the optics, smoke launchers and the MGs on top. Let us know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
__Yossarian0815[jby] Posted June 18, 2010 Author Share Posted June 18, 2010 Survived! At first glance everything seemed to be in order, but I´ll recheck the smoke launching ability. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFCElvis Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 It was a AT-5A HEAT. It was a crazy end of turn. The turn ended just as it exploded. Here is my version of the end of the turn. Showing both the clock and what was a hopeful and wishful thinking word seemingly written across the thing. But, apparently it was not "Done". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vergeltungswaffe Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 The ultimate morale buster, weapons that spray smack talk onto vehicles as they take them out. See ya *boom* Pwned *boom* etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny(FGM) Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I bet you thought you'd achieved such a good flank shot. Reminds me of when my T-72 was taking on a M1 from the side, and managed to hit the front of the turret! Was not impressed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian90 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Nothing strange here, fact that missile exploded doesen't mean that shapded charge jet go to the and inside top armor, in this case jet just go further in to air, only explosion itself could damage or destroy RWS, smoke granades launchers control cables, sights etc. The US and UK Tanks are really strong. Bit too strong in my Opinion. But hey, thats just my Opinion. In the real world modern MBT's are also so strong, especially from the front, of course there is chance that projectile hit in the weak spot, but weak spots are small surfaces so in game this is modelled very good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmar Bijlsma Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 The real question is: why did that missile explode? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian90 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Maybe it hit RWS or other equipment, there is plenty of possibilities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFCElvis Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 The real question is: why did that missile explode? I tried about a dozen times to get it the instant before contact. The best I was able to do was the moment of contact. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmar Bijlsma Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Ah yes, it seems to have hit the RWS. The earlier screenies made it look like the explosion was higher. Though now that I look again at your earlier screenshot I see the smaller explosion at the RWS. I was expecting the hit to be at the centre of the larger blast animation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
__Yossarian0815[jby] Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 just a note to say: smoke launching and target light on hit tank fully operational. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
