It didn’t take long and the WW1 event is like live server GRB. Light vehicles are the best. Use speed and and dirt roads to flank behind enemy lines and murder everyone from behind or from the side. I didn’t lost the Garland, despite I took two full main calibre hits. There’s not even a spawn warning circle, imho.
You laugh to all APHE shells, cause it does almost no damage. HE cant harm you as well. MGs also can’t pen :) While the three ‘tanks’ are not tanky at all …and slow…and have light colors…and have more reload time.
today i learnt the only weather europe had for a handful of years was rain, we all remember the Central Powers getting bogged down in the mudpits of Ukraine, right?
Yeah the Garford ruins the event for me, just like autocannon rats ruin the game. Why even add it in the first place ? It has no historical importance compared to the others.
Now you just get one shot not only by the A7V but also by a milk truck you can’t see
It kills the match. Weak armor is absolutely the best armor and that strange HE shell with that much pen kills everything with one shot, bar A7 frontally.
Vice verca I just got stuck in front of an enemy A7 tank and it took 5 point blank shots to kill my Garford. Its open top, so one HE should overpressure it, but it does usually nothing. APHE doesn’t fuse and you need to needle all crew seperately.
Even after a tremendous amount of buff at St Chammond, Entente forces are still losing like hell, just in the same way as France in 1940.
The winning rate feels like it becomes slightly higher and higher when every day passes, but they are still losing a lot more.
Can’t wait to see A7V and captured-Gaford storm London and Geroge V sign Unconditional Surrender with Willhelm II in Gaijin’s alternative reality WW1.
Entente Mk. V’s 6pdr cannon has 16g of explosive in APHE
while German Mk. IV’s upgun maxim cannon has 120g of explosive in their APHE?
(same gun with A7V)
with slightly better pen at the ‘marginal’ level.
Of course, every British-built thing needs to be worse than a German-captured one. :|
At least, both sides have almost same gaford :/
The Best armored vehicle at western front, ‘the artilery truck from east’
feels like real charade.
Unlike both St Chammond and Mk.V does, Gaford can punch quite pack of punch against A7V when successfully flanked.
Sad point is, Germans also can utilize same truck, and Allied tank has weaker armor than germans overall.
Both feel meh in this mode, but I think the German one captured is obviously better than the UK one.
Of course, Mk. V moves faster than Mk.IV thanks to the new engine, but the gun difference feels bigger than that.
On the contrary - it was widely used and considered very effective - including through the German revolutions by the Freikorps, by Poland in their wars, both the Reds and Whites used it in the Russian civil war, by Latvia vs the Reds and Germans -one was still in storage to be captured by the USSR in 1940!
General ignorance in the west that it even existed doesn’t make it insignificant!
people like when their favorite vehicle is effective against everything but not when something they dont like being effective against them
biased comparisons comparing the most ideal situation of one vehicle to the least ideal situation with another vehicle to say a disparity
