Please fix overpressure
it is absolute madness that any HE
shell with more then 85g of TNT does
overpressure one hits any open top vehicle
while light tanks can take a hit from an 152mm APHE
and go on with their lifes as if nothing happened
i dont know how but pls fix.

Yours loving

Overpressure only kills crews. So Even when a light tank gets hit by a large shell, unless the shell hit in such a way that fragments enter the crew compartment, no overpressure takes place.

The main issue with such a scenario is when a vehicle made out of 15mm steel plates gets hit by a shell that can penetrate 60mm via explosive force, there shouldn’t be much left of the vehicle.

Like it would basically get torn appart. But in WT, the shell might only destroy the tracks and the engine, even though it should have destroyed parts of the hull.
Kinda like a, hm what could you call it… 🤔

They should have just fixed hull break. Overpressure is kinda ass.

If it gets realistic even a modern mbt wouldn’t stand a change against a He point blank

In the quiet words of the virgin mary, come again?

Shoot the side of an BTR-80 or Ratel 20 as an example with an SU-152
and nothing happenes eventhough those vehicles should be ripped in
to two parts.

Nothing happens for sure if by nothing you mean “the vehicle is instantly reduced to nothing”.
You must be playing a different game.

Bruh that HE reference was on open top vehicles
not light tanks…

You refer to no other type of shell than “HE shell”.
Unless you are assuming everybody else is telepathic and can interpret what you wrote as something entirely different from what you wrote, then I have to inform you that we are not telepathic and you will just need to write correctly.

You happy now? I added “APHE” just for you.

Yes I am happy that you have corrected your post so that people can actually understand what you are trying to ask. Ecstatic even.

And to follow up on your now rectified addition of APHE:

If the armour is thin enough to the point wherein it does not set off the fuse of an APHE shell it will just pass through a vehicle and overpressure never comes into the equation. For example, the BR-540 APHE shell for the ISU-152 which has a fuse sensitivity of 19mm, whereas the sides of the BTR are much thinner than this so it will not fuse.
