Never stopped them from buffing certain guns beyond their historical capabilities or giving them fantasy ones for that matter. rolleyes.gif

Got enough exp to research SU-14 already, now should I do it now or after the 8.6 update... :/

Do it now. You might get a free tank when the SU-14 is shuffled around.

Type T-34? Anywhere along the lower glacis, sides, etc. The whole thing is flammable.

I dont know why Pz38na always put on Tier 8 battle ?

It's considered a scout tank. It can see up to Tier 8s.

Other tier IV lights with scout MM are T-50, Luchs, M5 Stuart. (Not sure if the Chinese light is considered a scout or not. Note that the Crusader has normal tier 4 MM.)

no need to remember every tanks weak spots, there are common weak spots
KV series aim for the vertical plate at front, lower plate
German heavies, aim for lower plate, and machine gun port
US heavies, their hull are weak, basically u have no problem to penetrate that
french heavies? that's paper thin, jz pam pam

common weakspots are machine gun port, view port (but not for all, kv4, and British TD view port thick), copula

anyway, if u not in heavy, try not to go with enemies heavy face to face.
and if u using smaller gun, u will need more shots to break enemies tank's track
*
Yep. Pretty much.

My T-44/54/62-A never see a heavy face-to-face, except when I outnumber them. laugh.gif (or I'm bullying a low-tier HT that is caught out on his own.)

just bought a StuG, very very nice gun with high penetration. i think i will stick to this one for very long time.
nice handling, good aim time, very decent low profile.

StuG III has a mean gun for its tier. (Highest pen among all TDs.) Jadgpanzer IV unfortunately shares the same gun in a higher tier.

HE or HEAT? wink.gif

Relevant info for those interested:
QUOTE
New rules of HEAT shells work:
HEAT shells will start to ricochet if the impact angle is greater than 80 degrees. (please note that every shell can have slightly different settings). The armour penetration after ricochet will remain the same.
After penetration, a HEAT shell cannot ricochet inside the tank (as the shell is transformed into a continuous stream.)
After penetration, the HEAT shell will lose 5% of armour penetration force for each 10cm of travelling distance
After penetration, the force with which the HEAT shell continues to travel through the armour will take into account the angle of impact between the armour and penetration spot.
Suspension also counts as spaced armour

Turn on Battle Recordings in the setting.

There'll be replay folder created in your game folder.

Ignore those who don't know that their SPG has tracks. I myself usually start to relocate even before the red dots show up. Seeing your green tanks disappear is a good sign that you should get the hell out, more so if you're in a slow-arse arty like SU-14 or Obj 212.

Tracks.

As in you know. Those things they use to move around? unsure.gif Not sure if troll or just very bad joke. Assuming the latter.

The one you're referring to we usually call "tracers".

how to fight with Kv-1 using StuGIII?

close range : i get 1-2shot and die.
mid-long range : i cant aim at the mg port, gun accuracy not good enough to hit that small spot unless very lucky.

seems like nothing i can do except just blow up its track-belt and run..
*
KV-1 has many weaknesses, even from the front. The MG port is only when you're in point blank range.

With your L/70, you can be able to penetrate both the upper vertical plate and lower glacis easily. Only the sloped upper glacis will bounce 150 pen. (Not a guarantee either.)

And the L/70 is a very consistent gun but if you are in melee range, chances are that the KV1 will outlast you cry.gif

You mean the 75mm L48 gun? Yea, usually I would aim the side of the hull instead. It's a barely reliable gun sad.gif

That or it would not result in a penetration. The mighty KV1 roams back in tier 5 battles :3?
*
Try the M1A2 gun on the T21/M4 and get back to me. laugh.gif

(128 pen is seriously lolworthy.)

That said, you shouldn't bounce off the back or side of a KV. It's only 70mm there. More than likely you actually hit the roof armour (likely, since the Pz4 is rather high, and you're aiming downwards), and autobounced due to the steep angle.

How I know? My T-44 bounced 3 shots off a T29 when I was circling. Then I realised that I was shooting at the roof armour, rather than at his flat side armour.

I used to have M4 in my garage running the m1a1 gun. Seriously though, what's with the high aim time  rclxub.gif  laugh.gif
Kinda explains why sweat.gif .

As for me it became a habit for me to shoot the side of KV1 hull.  laugh.gif

Just something to illustrate my point. (bad MSPaint ahead!)

I have seen a group of tanks get taken out by an Obj 704 because they were all going in one at a time instead of rushing the guy.
