Title: [1.11]Russian Tanks Damage vs AT Guns
Post by: Budwise on May 28, 2010, 05:15:38 PM
In the few games ive played, Russian tanks do massive damage to AT guns/PAK's often destroying them in 2 shots. 

Proposal:
Like vCoH, make tanks aim at crew of the AT gun instead of the gun itself and/or simply reduce damage vs AT guns.

agreed, they could also reduce the accuracy towards AT guns

88mm german PAK/FlAK USUALLY get my ZiS's like nutcracker get nuts - 1 shot, gun exploded (sometime - but rare - 1 of crew survived, and, without a rifle, running around like mad), all dead.
JUST 1 SHOT.

Actually you are comparing hell with peanuts.
The 88 is the all-round weapon of the whole game.

This isnt any argument at all.

Actually, I think that what Artillerist is trying to say, is that his Flak 88 got owned by a ZiS. I've seen this on a number of occasions as well, flak 88's (full health and all) getting destroyed by a single tank shot.
Best solution so far is to place a hidden unit (sniper or kettenrad) a bit ahead to be able to make full use of the Flak's range.
Cheers

but 88 once spoted dies with arty or massive inf assault ...

sharpshooters are good too, with their arty and smoke

planes can distract the 88 before tank assaulting too
