Some questions about ISU-152

[spparty]

question 1:
ISU-152 has a skill called "animal killer", what's the function of it?  It seemed that the skill only extend the field of view slightly.

question 2:
ISU-152 & Jagdtiger，which is stronger?

[AbhMkh]

I havent done this ISU 152 vs Jagdtiger as yet but ISU 152 requires some skill to be handled effectively


Its like a "LARGE" field gun , capable of destroying most tanks in 2 hits , but it can be circle strafed easily hence it requires a great deal of support , however you can use it to smash your way through to the enemy base , it is effectively a breakthrough assault tank

[Blackbishop]

ISU-152' skill "animal killer", try to work as a marder lock down, but with the same reload time and accuracy, correct me if I'm wrong .

@ Question number 2.

Anyone could win. It depends on skills, how well surrported, if any bounce, etc

[GreenApple]

I guess, ...

ISU-152 > Panther
ISU-152 > Tiger
ISU-152 > Jagdpanther
ISU-152 < Kingtiger
ISU-152 < Jagdtiger

Certainly CoH.

[Seeme]

I find that hard to believe.

So does the Jagdtiger
They have the similar firepower,range,accuracy,speed and poor reload time(I haven't tested their armor yet)

Difference:
ISU-152 has a special skill but Jagdtiger hasn't
Jagdtiger's barrel can rotate in a small angle but ISU-152's cannot
Any more?

Jadgpanther reloads alot faster then ISU 152.

[GreenApple]

ISU-152 can not shoot while moving.

[Seeme]

So forget retreating while shooting.

The skill explanation do not explain the effect of the skill clearly.

Here is the Eastern Front Mod Offical Forums. I hope the mod designer could see this post and give us some offical explanations

It's Jadgtiger, not the Jadgpanther

It's a big problem,I just forgot it

[Kolaris]

The Animal Killer ability doesn't work atm. I'm not sure if the intention is to fix it or to remove it though.

[AbhMkh]

The ISU-152's ambush ability is bugged , it needs to be fixed


ISU-152 is chiefly a TD , however it should be supported

IN a 1vs 1 match

"ISU-152 is superior to all super-heavy German tanks except the Jagdtiger which i haven't tested as yet "


When used with repair support , it can be used to draw heavy fire and while it is being fired upon , you can use either your AT guns or supporting tanks to destroy what is firing on it , like a couple of marders or panthers ( these are the usual counters for soviet heavy tanks)

[Zerstörer]

I'm pretty sure a KT/Jagdpanther both beat it...but only just

[AbhMkh]

we have  to find out the stats , interesting problem

can anyone post the following

HP
Reload time
penetration of each

I think the ISU-152 would be the winner
