    it is obvious that having 75mm you need 3 succesfull hits anyways, due to its triple damage condition. that is sure overkill. though you can use 3x37mm. but this is a first approach to tank's damage model, that will is under further development.

    Me-323 Gigant

    Now we need me-323, it can carry a tank to enemy area. When 323 has landed, command .tank is available.

    hmmm , anyway , what's it for? it's just a bigger jeep :rolleyes: it's too slow to take a ride to enemy field (who would like to spend few hours just to get shot and respawn in tower?) , killing cv's? i doubt that. Saw few guys today sitting on one field in tank and shooting at each other , shooting at hostile planes even. You know it's possible to kill a friendly plane in tank ? (by making a hole under the plane)
    I can see the action spoilers already , sitting in tanks , preventing planes from take off :rolleyes:

    Anyway , thx for new implementation, i can see the game is evolving ;)

    I have watched as my field is being jaboed and there are "TANKS" sitting there like big ugly stupid toads. DOing nothing, but crawling about slowly, being big ugly stupid and slow.
    I have watched as my field was beat to shreads while those stupid idiots sat their in their blobs like bumps on logs.
    The things might be dandy for attacking stuff, but they ARE NOT HMACKS, okay, stupid people? Got that?
    DUH.

    Actually they are hmacks. After the 75mm run out (at 75% ammo) it reverts to machine guns.

    Thankx Oz. I didn't know that.

    Do they revert to the co-axial mg in turret? (should be limited vertical traverse*)
    Do they revert to driver operated mg? (should be limited to front only*)
    I don't suppose a single mg with limited* field of fire would be comparable to a 20mm.... would it? You could say a horse is a racehorse because it is capable of running around in a circle, right?
    btw devs: some optics and a rangefinder would be a good idea. Didn't tank gunners have gunsights and a way of triangulating on their targets? Okay, sorry, I wasn't thinking about Red Army tanks, sorry:p .
