A7V rarely gets one shot killed, the french tank however often dies to one hit and if not its completely disabled
A7V has so much crew it can take multiple penetrations.

Okay, so I played for a while because I want the collectible vehicles and forced myself to endure RB spotting. It’s more or less fun, but the novelty wore off very quickly. So far this is my opinion:
- 5000 points per star is not too much of a grind to make it annoying. So that’s good.
- The imbalance in both teams comes mostly from map design. The hilly terrain and low velocity guns makes it much easier for the A7V to snipe (at least for those who can aim the damn thing, I don’t get how people can rangefind and hit accurately without being able to see the shell itself), while the Chamond with its gun so low to the ground doesn’t get to spot targets or engage them that easily.
*The armored cars are made for masochists. Literally no reason to use them unless, I don’t know, you hate yourself for some reason.
*The aircraft are… Bad. The Zeppelin is an useless bad of explosives. The Fokker is objectively worse than the SPAD and once you lose altitude, game over, you’re not getting that back. The bomber, I only got to use it once.
*The infantry component is completely wasted. It looks cool, it does nothing, it could be removed and nobody would notice and that is a real shame.

all planes get an air spawn in AB and RB, i doubt the blimps would be in any SB rotation as they usually don’t have a tonne of br1s
Quality is a separate issue from armor treating. There’s a reason we HAVE armor modifiers like RHA and Mild Steel ingame in the first place.
It should be corrected, and the armor of the A7V should be nerfed as such.
its not coming
the server despawns crashed planes and helicopters, you know? even if someone has it right in front of them, the server would snap it out of existence
thank you for the very comprehensive and detailed explanation filled with information Mr My Dad Works at Gaijin and told me it’s not happening
Stona said it earlier
odd, tbeir messages haven’t appeared for me since the opening post
sky internet at its finest, somehow worse then the snails severs
Now that i can agree on, on sky myself
poop servers or stona deleted it however it was said
Funny how I was in the top ranks during those losses… so wasn’t my skill issue.
Best regards,
Phil
The imbalance in both teams comes mostly from map design.
Or the fact that one side gets one shot constantly whilst needing a dozen shots to kill the other side, A7s just rush across the map and as the other side gets stuck everywhere the game is over due to the ticket bleed even if they magically kill the A7s.

calling out gaijin secret nerf to the entente
saint-chamond full lenght 1897 ap round
b1 bis short 75 copy and pasted by gaijin
sau40 sohrtenned 75 1897 that should be more what the saint-chamond fires
and finally the round it should have gotten (and overpressuring would compensate for the a7v 120g of tnt)

The armored cars are amazing. Though the shells are weird. I can overpressure an A7V with the HE but somehow not kill another armored car
I dint think this is the right one
Congrats, you discovered the Gaijin treatment to France. Literally all french vehicles are either under performing or completely incorrectly modeled

Lol the A7Vs armor wasnt Mild steel, it was armor grade steel, a little under demand as they didnt have the correct tooling and applications, but it was armor grade steel.
yep, for some reason the garford is completely immune to overpressure. Gaijin “balancing” of the even is disastrous as the garford HE can and will overpressure most entente vehicles, even from the front, assuming it’s close enough.
