As a tank, [U]you don't want to get too close to infantry.[/U] Why? Once they're out of your firing arcs, they can fuck with you. Generally, I imagine they didn't even want to get within throwing-distance of infantry - so running them over with hedgerow cutters is stupid. It would just knock them under the tracks and it'd be exactly like running them over anyways. (Or catch them, I guess. That may even be worse for the tank crew.)
Now the mine-flails? That's another story. I could totally see some batshit tank crew trying to use it on entrenched/hiding infantry.

The M4A2 stood 55 half inches above the ground. The width of the path was 153 inches (the front wheels had a width of 36-half inch each). The 116.400 pounds heavy tank could reach a speed of 3 km/h when it was clearing mines (on a clear road it could drive 10 km/h). In June, 1944 the T10 was tested, but it was evident that the weight was the drawback in action.

Yep. I want one in Company of Heroes 2.

Sherman Firefly in german hands.

Can you imagine being one of those tank crews? Driving a tank whos silhouette has been memorized by everyone in your army?
But I agree. Would be a cool premium.
[QUOTE=Zakhodit;37255316]Can you imagine being one of those tank crews? Driving a tank whos silhouette has been memorized by everyone in your army?

Yeah, I think there would be a lot of friendly fire issues...Sadly I cant seem to find anything else about this Firefly in german hands
[QUOTE=Zakhodit;37254752]Maybe what they should do to arty is add a consumable called "ear plugs"
Just put them in the game, don't tell anyone what they do.
Each time an arty shoots, his chat fades. After four shots it's gone. Also, after three shots, caps lock is toggled and he's stuck in all caps until the end of the match.
Now if he has ear plugs, once he uses them this stops. But it only stops at the level of damage he had when he started useing them. If the chat was faded and he's stuck in caps lock, whelp, he is still there. plugs don't bring hearing back. (But a first aid kit will...)
Wait wait, never mind. This as no affect on the game.
Arty already ignores their team and yells at everyone for no good reason.[/QUOTE]
Well, it would make sense for their map to face, too.
...
oh god yess this is the best idea >:]
[QUOTE=O'Neil;37255393]Sadly I cant seem to find anything else about this Firefly in german hands[/QUOTE]
I'm sure it happened more than once. Even if not documented. Under the circumstances of that conflict, if it was captured and in working order, it was used.
Speaking of premium tanks... I have 7 now. :rolleyes:
A total of 23 tanks with 3 more garage slots.
Free to play, what an amazing idea.

omg just two shot an AMX M4 1945 and one shot a T25 through the commanders cupola
I love the KV-2

[QUOTE=fishyfish777;37255587]omg just two shot an AMX M4 1945 and one shot a T25 through the commanders cupola[/QUOTE]
Honestly, I'm shocked when I don't get shot in the cupola. Was in my Type 59 and faced off with another type 59. When we started I was at around 75% health and he was full. When it was over I was alive (barely) and he was dead. He bounced three shots off my turret and I keept shooting the cupola. (I had him smashed agasint a rock so there wasn't much movement.)
He accused me of using gold rounds.

One shot a T25? Why am I not surprised...
Carius talked about panzer crews rolling around in captured Ruskie tanks that got blown away by friendlies in Tigers in the Mud. Apparently no one wanted to operate captured tanks after that.

I couldn't finish the like last 800k credits. Just couldn't do it.
I sold IS-8 I couldn't bear, anyway.
If I ever feel like getting the IS-7, I will just buy money and convert 70k exp.

Yeah that would curtail the desire to roll around in a captured tank.
Trying to find more details on Blue on Blue and dug up these numbers:
Average Friendly Fire casualties for WWII (Confirmed Totals)
US- 15.56%
UK- 12.86%
France- 8.57%
Free French- 12.11%
Free Poles- 13.58%
German- 8.5%
Russian- 21.75%
Japanese- 24.18% (Includes Kamikazi)

Posessing an account and a tank t1 or above iirc.
M60 Patton is big but not monstrous.
I got the best gun for the Tiger.
Now it's actually a fun tank.
Have you got engines too? Because get top engine and suddenly you're a surprisingly zippy little fucker.

Not yet, had my priority on firepower.
What the hell happened to the KV-2?
Before I stopped playing, I was hitting solid 700s on anything, now in 5 battles I haven't broken 450 per shot, not even when I penetrate some french tank's succulent rear armor.

HE nerf happened.
It still gets those 1k hits but not as often as before. Now you break every module in their tank and kill most of their crew though.
Those god damn AMX 13/90s ALWAYS survive for some reason, I shoot the god damn turret and it only does 400 damage.

I've always gotten >400 except the one time i got R2D2 for 800.

You've got your wires crossed.
1. There was a one-time gold given at the end of the WoWP [I]Alpha[/I].
2. What you quoted was to do with buying tanks through the gift shop.
