1 inch, rather. Which translates to 25.4mm.

>>24833356
Well, yeah. It can penetrate. Doesn't mean it will do any damage

>>24833369
Any shot that would have penetrated the crew cabin sends up that little white flag from what I understand, and I think taking down a tank with our MG would be brilliant.

SO HOW ABOUT THAT TWITTER HUH OP?

>>24833369
With the M2's rate of fire and precision, I'd bet my left nut we'd hit something important pretty fast.

>>24833369
>>24833452
Considering its range is 500 yards for a pen, and its rated for soft target accurate shots at nearly a mile and a half. The I-Go and anything with less the 20mm or armor is fucked.

>>24833452
That's also assuming they don't panic. They're rookies, I can see them freaking out over getting blasted with a .50 cal machinegun if the armor won't even stand up that well to it.

>>24833495
Let me rephrase that then. It appears as though it's just barely enough to penetrate. If it expends all of it's kinetic energy penetrating, I don't imagine that there will be all that much left that would actually inflict enough damage to trigger the flag.

Assuming the computer is advanced enough to keep track of that sort of thing.

>>24833587
That tactic would work as well, or better, on a Pz4, as it's more top heavy.

>>24833564
Metal doesn't work like that. It will either penetrate with enough kinetic energy to AT THE VERY LEAST give someone a nasty bruise, or it won't penetrate at all.

>>24833587
Gunsights?

>>24833616

You realize no actual penetration takes place, right?

The I-go could withstand a direct hit from the Maus main gun and it wouldn't be structurally compromised.

>>24833629
actually, just the act of things penetrating the armor would typically be lethal to the crew. Look up "Spalling".

Ah, that's what I was thinking of, thank you

>>24833738
The cabins are reinforced with modern technology and the guns fire special ammo designed not to kill little girls.

>>24833738

Anime physics. It's how nobody actually gets hurt.

>>24833738
The shells don't actually pen- a computer in the shell tells the tank it's dead, and raises a flag on the roof. Something about "carbon coating" or some shit

>>24833564
If it has enough to pen a tank armor, even the spalling behind the armor will be enough to main or kill whatever is sitting behind it.

>>24833701
You think spalling is bad, look what rivets do when hit. M3 was fucking mess in more than one way

>>24833809
Look at what happens to an M113 when an RPG hits aluminum armor.

I think the only tank we can't down with the M2 Browning .50 Caliber Machine Gun is the lee.

Shit, we might be able to pull off a full win with just the M2.

>>24833791
That is a much, much better explanation than >>24833779

>>24833817
Or warships like the Sheffield.

>>24833701
Actually, spalling was/is lethal to crews... Even if the shot DOESN'T penetrate. The massive 122mm and 155mm guns the Soviets used were notorious for killing crews either through sheer concussive impact, or spalling damage, even when they didn't penetrate. The British Challenger 2 (their current MBT) uses HESH rounds (High Explosive Squash Head), which are designed primarily to cause spalling damage and kill crews inside vehicles even when it doesn't penetrate. The primary defense against spalling damage, is padded lining interior designed to absorb spalling shrapnel, which western allied tanks all use now.

>>24833833
Yeah, just because we can, doesn't mean we should. Just hit them with the main gun and be done with it. Should be a one and done deal across the board.

>>24833872
It's a practice match and we're the only crew that's even been in a tank before, never mind mock combat experience. Giving them a handicap is fair, and using only the M2 is a clever handicap.

"What's the point of a training match if we just roll down there and smite them like the fist of an angry god?" You say. "Let them get some practice in shooting each other up- we've got a good defensive position."

"Can I at least turn on the radio?" Patrick asks.

"Can you find something that doesn't suck?" You say, grinning as you scan the valley below.

"It's all Japanese, but I can try."

A few minutes of turning through various stations rewards you with a station playing western classic rock. Thank God for Ameriphiles, you think before the quiet pop of a tank gun wafts up to Black Jack's position. "Contact! I hear guns!" You say excitedly, scanning across the trees.

"Who was it?" Rose asks.

"Too quiet for a seventy-five..." You guess. "Probably the 38' or the I-Go." As you scan across a road, you finally see the cause of the commotion. Miho's Panzer IV comes whipping out of the woods before turning onto a service road. You switch over to the telescope sight in the hull, switching over to 6x to watch the action. "Looks like the Panzer IV with..." A bright pink blod emerges from the woods next, attempting to turn onto the fleeing Panzer IV for a shot, but firing much too early and sending the 75mm round into a burm of dirt along the road. "There's the Lee."

And then, a few second later a garish golden tank emerges from the forest, seemingly shooting randomly at the Lee and Pz.IV. "There's the President's Thirty-Eight."

It's hard to pinpoint sounds in a forest and I don't think we have tracers loaded. It would let them know we're close and which direction we are in but unless one of them was silly enough to pop out of the hatch and look for us while under MG fire they probably wouldn't find us.

Actually a lot of garupans would be silly enough to pop out of the hatch while under MG fire. I'm having second thoughts about this thing.

>>24833931
>Leave them be- they need practice just as much as the rest of the team.
As much as I want to ram into the Student Council's tank and physically maul their paintjob, we still need them to make the minimum number of teams for a regulation match.

But that doesn't mean we can't hound them at the very end when they're tired.

I have to say I have mixed feelings on the .50 cal idea in general anyway. On the one hand it's funny so I kind of want to attempt it, but on the other it's also just seems kind of dickish in a "haha man you guys SUCK" sort of way that probably can't do anything good for the teams already likely shaky morale and confidence.

>>Leave them be- they need practice just as much as the rest of the team.
Leave them be. Mind the I-Go/Stug/38t

Remember when we used to talk about WoT?

>>24834543
True. On the other hand, if we can shoot at them with the .50, we could also probably blow them to bits with the main cannon too. So it could also be in the vein of 'going easy on them', somewhat like we are for not rampaging from the word 'Go'.

>>24834580

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH yeah no.

Took you nigh on three decades to "liberate" the Phillipines even slightly, and that was only because you didn't have the money left to keep the colony going. And you've still got your claws in Guam and Puerto Rico.

Besides which, even with The Roosevelt Corollary (which would've arguably brought the US in on the British side) the wording of the doctrine, no matter how abused it's been to spread Yank Imperialism, is that it applies only to the extension of European colonialism into Latin America.

So it doesn't apply at all, really.

My mistake. In that case, I'd like to ask ya'll to please just stop.

"Want me to light them up?" Rose asks from below you.

You think for a second. While knocking that smug little twin-tailed hobbet off the road would probably be fun and would almost certainly make you feel a lot better about the current baby-blue coloration of your tank, the council needs practice as much as anyone else on the team.

Certainly their gunner. Even forgiving the fact that their tank was moving along as near-top speed, she wasn't even close to being on target.

"Nah, let 'em go." You say, watching the 38(t) try to take a sharp turn and nearly spin itself off the road. "Shooting them like this just wouldn't be sporting." You say with a grin.

You put your helmet on and get ready to pop the hatch open again a large stand of rocks beside your tank explodes, showering the side of the tank with steel and stone shrapnel. "Jesus!" You yelp. "Contact! Richard get the engine going!" You move to the periscope site, scanning along treelines and and hills.

That was almost certainly a 75mm round, and if it wasn't the PzIV or the M3...

PATANG! Black Jack rocks as a round bounces off the side of the turret- the round shattering on impact rather than doing any real damage- and you saw where that one came from.

"Bingo!" You say. "Target StuG III, forty-two degrees left rotation." You hit the commander override. "Frontal silouette, target stationary. Range thirteen-hundred. Bringing you on-target."

Don't knock them out. They all need as much practice as they can get. After, we need to gtfo and find somewhere else to hunker down in.

The StuG is a credible threat to us. it'll put holes in our ass all day everyday, and when it gets a bead on your side, you can get some swiz cheese.

I think it's a trap.

106mm of penetration at 100m.
Our maximum armor is 100mm
and minimum around 50.
it can pop through our softspots at 2km away
Its totally a threat.

Maybe this will teach them to be a bit more patient, as befitting their tank.

While this is a game, it also isn't a game.

While we may want to destroy the StuG, the chance of the I-GO coming up behind us is about 100%

German tanks and weapons are still allowed to be called Panzers, due to their German nature, it's everything else we should be objecting to.

>>24835224
A bit odd, actually. Clearly, serving smoke grenades out the commander's hatch is kosher.

Would there be a rule saying they can't carry a panzerschreck with league ammo in the tank?

That is a hilarious mental image, you know.

I doubt they have special Panzerschreck rounds that won't actually damage tanks. Smoke Grenades are okay as they're not meant to be lethal weapons.

>>24835299

If theres even schrecks with league ammo around.
Personally what would be utter hilarity would the PIAT, since it stands to reason the only person capable of using one would be ridiculously fit.
And because HEAT rounds stronk.

>>24835362
IIRC, League Rules would prohibit the use of anything that they didn't have/couldn't have done/didn't do.
Panzerschrecks weren't shot out of the turrets of tanks.
The Japanese didn't have Panzerschrecks.
So that's two strikes against it.

>>24835415
Doubt they had smoke flares either.

If we have smoke, we definately should definately use them after we fire and scoot out.

>>24835415
Okay, a Type 4 70 mm AT Rocket Launcher then.

Nip Bazooka, basically.

>>24835415

It's not like there isn't a precedent for modifications like this, albeit more for rocket artillery.

See: Sherman Calliope, Panzerwerfer, etc.

>>24835494
PIAT Mortar battery....

>>24835440
WRONG, they had smoke flares in ww2.

The problem is that panzershrecks are fuckhuge and there isn't room to have one in the tank, and that we aren't supposed to have our entire torso sticking out when someone is shooting at us.

>>24835530
They had panzerschreks in WW2, too.

My point is that they weren't chucking them out of tank cupolas by hand, which seems to be the quoted posts' objection.

It was worded poorly, i'll grant.

>>24835532
Actually the field modification of Panzershreks onto vehicles in order to make improvised AT vehicles has significant historic precedent.

Thanks, anon.

>>24835659
big difference between a couple nutjobs strapping a pair of schrecks to a captured bren and firing one out the hatch of an I-Go.

>>24835659
Awesome, let's do it. Even if it's just strapped to the I-Go's turret, it'll give the volleyball team at least one shot that can seriously fuck up its opponents. That'll open up an "unconventional tactic" for whoever was reaching for them the last few threads.

"Bad move, Erwin." You say under your breath. "Load HVAP. Engage."

A few seconds later you hear the round being rammed home. "Up!" Roy shouts.

"Fire!" You call out.

"Firing." Rose says calmly. The tank shakes and rocks as the ninety-millimeter shell arcs out towards the StuG. You see it disappear into the woods behind the German self-propelled gun, right through where the turret would've been on a normal tank.

"Correct down, one degree. Engage." you call down- the gun lowers slightly.

"Up!"

"Firing." The tanks rocks again as the hills still echo with the report of your first shot. The rounds strikes true- it impacts almost dead center on the StuG, just below and to the left of the gun. The impact carries it back a good three feet before a small white flag pops out of the top.

"Target destroyed!"

A loud 'ting" shows that you've been spotted by someone else- another shell has bounced off your turret.

>Pull back, if they want to engage they can come to us.
>Stay up- Try to see who's shooting at you.
>Go down- Everyone knows you're here, might as well go have some fun now.

>>24835875
>Pull back, if they want to engage they can come to us.

>>24835813
Hence why the Ontos was mentioned. It's not like they're pulling a panzerschreck out of the fighting compartment and out the hatch. That would be retarded (if an amusing mental image).

>>24835875
>Pull back, if they want to engage they can come to us.
Shoot and scoot, that's how you do it.
Also pop smoke if we have it

>Pull back, if they want to engage they can come to us.

This.

Tankwando allows prototypes so I don't see why documented field mods would be out.

Hopefully the lesson we take away from this is that we have to step our situational awareness game up if we want to do well in this team-based shit.

>>24836179
He means the people who landed a hit on us after we wrecked the StuG

We should taunt them over the tacnet

>>24836318
No. We should offer tactical corrections over the TacNet. For example, "Nice job sneaking up on us, but in future you're gonna want to pick out the weak spots and really make that first shot count."

"Alright, Richard, we've got a bit too much attention for my likes." You say trying to figure out where the round game from.

PATANG! Dammit, where is that coming from?

"Moving back." Black Jack drops back down behind the lip of the hill.

You take a look at the map. Two shots, both from the right front. Small caliber rounds meant it wasn't the Pz.IV. You needed to get into cover before the guns that could actually penetrate you figured out where you were.

Didn't help that the 90mm was about the louding gun around. You'd probably broadcast your position to every other tank out there- something you hadn't had to worry about before. "Alright, get on this road." You do some quick calculations- the battlefield was on a boat so the map wasn't necessarily oriented by the compass.

>Stay in the hills, you can use your strong turret and gun depression to your advantage, even if they know where you are.
>Head down into the forest- you can lose them easily once you're in the bushes.
>Cry havok and let slip the hounds of war!

We should not, because
1) We're more experienced than they are,
2) Our tank is better than theirs,
3) We're not that immature

>>24836346
I'd back this up, but we're currently getting shot at by the I-go, presumably. How about we offer them both some suggestions after we smoke them?

>Stay in the hills, you can use your strong turret and gun depression to your advantage, even if they know where you are.

Make them chase us; it'll be good practice for their driver.

>>24836371
We had also ought to commend the Stug's gunner for the shot. Not an easy one by any stretch. Perhaps suggest other tactics?

Observe how a good player works, pubbies, and learn.

>>24836360
Moving into the forest works both ways. We might be able to slip past them, but they'd sneak up on us just as easily. Hell, they'd have an easier time sneaking around on bushes than us, considering how small most of them were.

Stay in the hills. Abuse our range and armor.

"Alright, take a right here." Further back there's a short gulley- you can back into it and force them to come at your front armor one-by-one. "Alright, follow the road..."

"Aye." Richard says. It's slow-going, most of the road is uphill and the M26's biggest weakness was an underpowered engine that made hilly terrain it's biggest enemy. Richard handles the clutch and gears like a pro, giving the M26 it's best possible time. Meanwhile you're looking

"Alright, back in here." Now the waiting game begins- hopefully whoever was shooting at you is less patient and decides to come after you.

The only question is how long you want to wait- If the girls go back to shooting at each other then the longer you wait, the fewer you'll have to face. But if the girls decide to get smart and team up to take you, then this gulley could go from an ambush point to your own personal Armor Alamo.

That and I heard Afghanistan had some oil but it served more as a starting point to use the "war on terror" to invade Iraq. I mean with most of the population so drunk of patroitism and righteous indignation, no one thought about it until it was too late.

that's equally plausible as I have a theory that the oil companies in the US keep gas prices high and only blame the arabs for any gouging they do. A oil source they control would allow them to easier control things.

Whatever the case GW Bush more or less took advantage of 9/11 and its aftermath. If not for that, I'm not sure if he'd have gotten reelected.

>>24837329

Yep. Affected companies started raising prices (let's give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they really were raising them to deal with the hit they took), then all the other vultures saw that they could raise THEIR prices and nobody would notice, so they did it.
