Bonk.
big headache for crew but anything well armoured after 1945 isn’t going to see armour breached.
A good chunk of things after 1945 would still at bare minimum suffer massive amounts of spall, plus. Well. Overpressure.
HE from artillery is very deadly to tanks and even to modern tanks. They just usually have bad optics and are lightly armored and thus arent used against tanks

that was a panzer 4 but it gets the point across. massive HE shells are unfair facing such tanks
the artillery machines will die from your HE shells too
they say it was a panther

or just hit their ammorack with the apds (im also a conqueror player and trash HE slingers that way)
Remember, if you can surprise them they might not have the time to aim at your roof, and you can just trash them

honestly its so destroyed it could be anything german.
yea but they just need to tickle you from across the map in their SPG with a laser rangefinder before you even get night vision or stabilisers. You need to guesstimate the range and if you don’t have an overperforming APHE shell shoot them three or four times to wipe out crew
german steel was really poor quality should add. it wouldn’t be quite so catastrophic with well built machines
they actually need to aim against many tanks, just as we have to do against their ammo rack or just shoot their gunner
I have stab where they have laser rangefinder. We both need to aim to kill. Fair enough.

they dont need to aim much to cause overpressure tho. HE slingers are really braindead easy to play

Ive tanked more HE shells than died from in my conqueror
They need to aim if they want to kill me, and so do i, however i can also shoot them without aiming and it will probably take out their gunner regardless

look i never claimed HE slinger players are on average good. the amount of time they target my upper plate is comically high. overall they don’t need to aim for as small weakspots as a AP firing vehicle. Just shoot the front track and you overpressure 95% of vehicles instantly and completely cheese the game
good thing most of the time this isn’t a problem and if it is, then go into something with a fast firing cannon and shred them.
At same battleratings, some vehicles be strong against some others of particular class and vice versa
Autocannons are especially good against lightly armored vehicles
he slingers aren’t good against fast targets with fast firing guns if the fast target is a competetive player who knows positioning
I keep a shredder in my lineup

man i wish falcon was 8.0 in realistic. its 8.3 for us. I hope they remove the APDS and put it to 7.7 so britain has a SPAA and good shredder vehicle at the BR as fox and scimitar are absolute trash after they got nerfed far too heavily

I don’t think the VIDAR needs to be moved up but the PzH 2000 needs to go up, Its just VIDAR if not better

Soon as it gets thermals it can go up. And yes even vidar should be moved up , just because of those thermals, it gives a damn big advantage , no matter what people claim
