What's the Best Armor for tanks? USA: Composite Armor Russia: Reactive Armor. South Africa: Speed.

[@user-gx6tu3mf4k]

Pretty much hey xD

[@danielbtwd]

Depends upon the environment, in the subtropical thick Bush of southern Angola visibility would often go down to 10m. So when you made contact it really was down to who had the quickest reactions.

[@danielbtwd]

As an ex ratel gunner who spent 8 months at Quito Cannavale this is interesting. At the beginning of hostilities we we using ratel nineties against t55s. The Bush at times was so thick contact was sometimes as close as 10m. Our 90's needed several rounds to take out a tank. We would use our speed and maneuverability to out flank and encircle the tanks. This took some nerve as the ratel only had to get hit once. They were good at keeping the infantry safe from small arms and artillery. There were a couple of occasions that the 20mm managed to stop a t55. However all of these ratels were shot out by the tanks coming up from behind. During operation Hooper we started using our own tanks. During an attack on the tumpu triangle one op recorded 1300 accurate artillery hits on our position during the space of an hour. The migs were deadly and terrifying, we had nothing to match them. The only thing that helped us against them was the thick vegetation and cloud cover. During this period the rooikat and rooivalk were still in development. Our mirages only had a couple of minutes over the area before they had to leave so were only used for bombing. The mig 23 was superior. During six months of fighting we destroyed almost a hundred tanks. We also captured a sam13. The Russians who were there , ex Afghanistan veteran's said nothing could have prepared them for the hell that was Angola.

[@KyuMachi]

Thank you force your Service Sir. Got a question as well, Were the Ratel 20s using Armor Piercing Belts on their 20mms? or were they only given High Explosive for anti infantry and emplacements?

[@danielbtwd]

@@KyuMachi the ratel 20's had two belts, one with HE and the other with AP.

Watching that Twardy reverse a full kilometre while getting run down by the Roikat wolf pack was pretty exhilarating.

[@kem8651]

120 km\h offroad with 95-98% to-hit stabiliser on that elite mofo. Usual Eugen DLC. Its hillarious how stationary tank has less accuracy than a 120 km\h offroading vehicle.

[@dodobird679]

it's because of distance scaling and veterancy. Rooikat 105 has 60% stab with 2275m range, slightly less than most other 1990+ tanks

[@ineednochannelyoutube5384]

@@dodobird679 The 60% stabilizer is too much. Vickers11 has less, and its already pretty fucking good.

Tank rushing is back on the menu boys.

[@Paveway-chan]

Exactly. Helorushing is so pedestrian

[@rags417]

I've noticed that in all your games so far you have started with Rooikats and Rooikats supported by Rooikats, with more Rooikats to defend against enemy aircraft, Rooikats to counter enemy heavies and Rooikats for recon (Rooicon ?). I'm just wondering why don't you have any Rooikats in your Helo or Air tabs ?

[@BSoDexe]

There's rooivalk. Basically the same thing.

[@andrealves2630]

Man that Rooikat rush in the beginning brought me some bad memories. After like 20 hours playing skirmishes agaisnt bots I finally felt I had the minimun competence to try MP and in my very first match a dude rushed me early game with like 20 AMX-10RCs and I got overrun in less than 2 mins. I said "come on dude" and he literally answered "get shit on ya noob fuck". Didnt touch the game for a month after that

[@Obj.906]

[@icy3-1]

I had a 1v1 with a friend of mine who's cracked at WGRD, and he bought the DLC just as it came out. Now I was and still am a very big noob at Wargame but I enjoy it for what it is. I went apeshit when he got one of my M1A2s with a Loggim and just spammed 60mm smoke mortars to take towns while taking advantage of the ridiculous speed of South African transports and the Rooikats. Lo and behold, I fought players in live team matches that did the same thing :3

[@sebastijanglozinic8630]

A noob question Razzmann, but why do you always turn the MG off?

[@RazzmannWG]

Either to force my infantry to use their AT weapon (they can't use it at the same time as their MG) if they engage vehicles + infantry at the same time or so they don't give their position away by firing at infantry at long ranges.

No atgm plane, slow atgm missiles on Helos. Well that would be pain to play. Whats fire rate of heaviest tank? Commando inf without heavy machine guns sux i dont need mistrals on them. This isnt op deck at all, jets with only 2 missiles and shorter range, they probably gonna act like Yak or Finish Migs where 2 of 2 hits. I hope so. Also MLRS doesnt do a lot of damage either. I dont think so this is op deck at all, also yeah if i remember Sead plane is trash too. Il pay it bcs its 10 euros otherwise i dont think so this deck brings much. Only 4 super heavy tanks. Only good thing is Helo AA with 3500km range.

[@RazzmannWG]

happy for you or sorry that happened

[@Aleksaa944]

@@RazzmannWG nah its fine. I just saw heaviest tank fire rate is 8 rounds. With 20 armor that thing is useless against any super heavy on long distance, on close its also useless cuz of rate of fire. So infranfry is bad only good is rifle with long range atgm, but 40% hit ratio lol. Support good helo AA only and decent He MLRS. Tank trash, Helos good 120 points one but no 16 missiles and they are slow, but at least Stigers can defend itself, 90 points helo is way better since it can deal with inf and also got 8 missiles. So helos are ok. Planes are trash since no atgm plane and sead. . overall under average deck.

[@stalker5299]

@@Aleksaa944 you're going about SA entirely wrong lol, their tanks aren't what is going to be great about them, SA is heavily motorised and it will be a very strong deck in the right hands, the Bucc has AGM's and if you buy SA to be an armoured player then don't be surprised if you get stomped, SA is for motorised players lmao
