Title: Tiger kills 2 T-70s with one shot
Post by: Tehcumseh on December 13, 2012, 12:36:33 AM
So i was playing against the AI on Leningrad as the Wehrmacht. The Russian armor was hitting us hard and it was hard to push up. Then coming from the depths of hell a Vet 3 Tiger comes and saves the day.

That was my story  :P anyway there were 2 T-70s lined up and the Tiger shot a single shell killing both(i know because when both exploded)

I just wanted to know if its suppose to be able to do that or if that's not suppose to happen. If anyone can point me to a free screen recorder i can shoe the proof.

You should provide at least one picture of how the T70s were aligned to the Tiger :).

I can do that just how can i get the picture? I'm sure you don't want to see the whole game replay. They were also armor front not back. and they were lined up in a straight vertical line.

Replays are the most reliable source of information when it comes to balance concerns.

Could have been the tiger's splash damage.

Alright, Well i tried to watch it again and it had a "Sync Error" and it wasn't playing the game right... i don't really understand.

Ah that might be an AI problem.

Draw a rough sketch, sort in paint I guess.

Fair enough.

They look clustered enough to where even a shot to the front of the first T70 may have caused splash damage if it didn't directly hit the vehicle.

If there was an allied mine nearby to the T70 and the Tiger hit that instead by sheer luck?

The shots always cause splash damage, not only when failing to hit, but this sounds weird.

How many HP did they have before being blown?

Forgot to ask this myself.

There was no mines. They each had about half health.
