380mm ROCKET VS ABRAMS TURRET - WHO WOULD WIN? | STRUMTIGER GAMEPLAY

[@trueweapon2349]

Yea it should kill anything it makes contact with. But it should have its 10 min reload instead of the magic reload it has right now. If its shell gets buffed to be more realistic then its reload should take longer to keep it realistic.

MBTs failing to penetrate Sturmtiger actually doos make some sense. The hull UFP on this thing is 70mm RHA at 80° (yes, you read that right). In simulations, Russian 3BM42 Mango barely goes through M1A2 UFP which is 38mm at 82.5°. Of course the MBT will need very bad luck to hit that tiny strip of extremely sloped armor.

I had a 6.3 game where I got 6 kills with my Sturmtiger (4 came after losing my loader and commander) and no one noticed a 60 ton behemoth in the rear lobbing rockets at point blank range two of which they were within 150 meters of each other....I still don't understand.

[@vgames1543]

I agree that the Sturmtiger should have an accurate ammo explosion, but if it kills teammates and perhaps even punishes you for TKing with minus SL, it would take all the fun and usability out of the vehicle.

[@ideadlift20kg83]

Nah, it would work like current ammo rack does and give the kill to the person whom ammo racks the tank. So multi kills galore.

[@DantalionNL1]

Just instead of a shell explosion trigger a bomb explosion of the same tnt equivalent. That'll fix most things with the sturmmorser

CHALLENGE: GET A KILL USING INDIRECT FIRE What you will need: 1 vehicle with scout UAV, at least one 38cm Sturmmorser, one 15cm slG 33 B Sfl (optional if you want to fine tune your range since the reload is super short and the shell velocity is pretty much the exact same with the 38cm Sturmmorser) How to rangefind: Measure the distance between you and the squad marker on the minimap with a ruler Formula : Minimap scale (the number on the bottom right on your minimap) divided by the width of one box on the minimap, then multiply by the distance you got using the ruler. For example: Minimap scale: 200 Width of one box on minimap: 1.5cm (keep in mind your number may be different depending on how big your monitor is) Measured distance from you to teammates squad ping on minimap: 6.8cm Actual distance from you to teammates squad ping in game: (200/1.5) x 6.8 = 906.67m Get people to practice with and within like 3 matches you'll be lobbing deadly accurate 750lb rockets across the map from spawn within 5 seconds of squad ping Edit: Have gotten 7 kills in the past 2 days.

[@christianjunghanel6724]

The shell used on the Sturmtiger also has an interresting design history ! If i recall right it originally was supposed to be an an Anti-sub round for Battelships hence the caliber of 380mm like on the Bismarck class ! It was modified later on to bring down buildings and fortificatons instead ! Since there is no space for the equipment (like a gun weighing 111 tons / at leat 6 powder packs per shell ) to fire those rounds normaly like you would battelship , they added a rocketmotor to the round itself ! A typical crazy late war story of german engineering , but i guess it just shows how creative you can get if you back is against the wall !

Use the platoon mark, it only aims at a point on the ground. Set the range and poke in the direction of the target looking at the minimap. So you can hit a lone tank with one hit.

DOLLARplays really does some good stuff with the Sturmtiger for those long range yeet shots. I've seen this thing crack three people on a spawn point early on just because they'd figured out how to accurately lob in from the far side of the map, got the nearest capture point to the enemy zeroed in, and popped off a shot the second the point started turning red. Stick your top just high enough to binoc rangefind over cover, lob barrel of death over said cover, enjoy reducing target to paste. It's a trebuchet on tracks, and it just plain doesn't belong at brawl range or even anywhere near the open if you can avoid it. Long range yeeting is this thing's claim to fame.

[@Spasgasmic]

So based entirely off the Bismarks 38cm shells that only had 69kg explosive filler(as opposed to 135kg). Lets take the hits on the hood for actual real world effect. The first detonating shell hit on the hood melted and deformed the turret armour and barbette armour of the primary armament. it made a near wave like shape leaving almost only structural steal and a thin layer of the actual plate. That was between 300 and 380 MM of armour deformed ALONG the plate by the explosion.... That cannon barrel would of been turned into molten slag and thrown across the battlefield like one of my GI joe toys when I was 12 and checking a tantrum. Thats best case scenario. In all likely "hood", it would be broken down into such small pieces that they wouldnt even hold much thermal potentail and be turned into a wave of sharp shrapnel being sprayed everywhere. You wouldn't of just killed an abrams gun but mostly likely yourself and all your brothers in arms in the near area. On a side note about old school super weapons: Large kinetic weapons weren't discontinued because they didn't have potential, they were shelved for many years(see the resurgence of 155mm) because they were expensive and a technical kill could be achieved with alot less by using clever modern design. The bismarks cannons and other 380/381mm cannonade would still be just as devestating today as they were back then. Not much aside from a lucky extremely fortified bunker would of been able to withstand even a single close hit from such a gun right up until maybe the 2015's when the composite armour of tanks reached a theoretical absurd level of thermal resistance but this still hasn't been tested in real world or well documented situations and is still very top secret.
