Well seeing the amount of millsurp destroyed in Australia/Bongland, i guess so.

>I do not enjoy people refering to tanks as cute
Forgive me that I find it painfully embarrassing to be associated with people who refer to tanks as cute and "Kawaii".

I believe the correct response to this is to tell you to fuck off and die in a ditch.

>>118217671
The problem is you're basing this match on only one thing: knocking out the other tank. Tanks can do a lot more things, such as scouting or infantry support, that the 38(t) would be much more suited for than the IS-2. Every tank has something it's good at.

Alright.
>>118219018
>Every tank has something it's good at.
And some tanks are clearly better than others, can do the same roles better and are generally all round superior to their counterparts.
But according to your holy tomb we should treat them as if they were the same - despite one vehicles obvious superiority.
>>118219168
Yes, because most tanks are generally good at what they're supposed to do for when they were built. A Panzer IV wouldn't stand up to a Leopard II, are you saying that that means the Panzer IV is useless?
>>118219018
>Every tank has something it's good at.
Some of them are good at being destroyed.
>>118219072

In the 1980s it would be.
The fact is, as I've already explained, not all vehicles are created equally. To treat them as equals is asinine.
To praise every vehicle for not being a pile of shit is asinine. That what your sacred tomb does.
It finds one good thing to say about a heap of shit and that it. To love all tanks equally is asinine.
You know it. I know it.
You don't love them all equally and I sure as hell don't.
Its a complete farce and posting >le tog maymay >>118219280 is fucking embarrassing.
Grow up and get out of this tank fantasy land.

>Grow up and get out of this tank fantasy land.
Where do you think you are?
>>118219072
Both taken by edgelords. And teh dedicated one of this thread is rather smug, even if his facts don't check. Like, he's arguing not that tanks have intrinsecally different capabilities, but that they, and I quote, "to enjoy them all equally is asinine". Big flash, Anon: enjoyment is not related with capabilities. You're mistaking the fictional sport of senshado and the fandom about cool machines with their usefulnes in actual combat.
And he's also doint it wrong. The argument about how a 38(t) would be unable to do anything against an IS-2 even with a better commander just cracks me up. He surely ignores that there's an even more extreme mix-up - a M8 car vs a Tiger. And the M8 *won*.inb4 "source" - boku no google it, all requests belong to /r/. Now, before he says "b-but that's an unlikely case", yes, why, thank you for noticing, that's why it's a proof of a superior enough commander.
Please, folks, just ignore him and return to how Shizuka and Rin should get a goddamn room

Because actually giving citations would be cheating now wouldn't it? I'm just going to presume you've made it up.

Don't worry anon, I'm laughing at your poor English and anger over your little world crumbling about you.
I'm sorry I don't blindly follow the cult. Forgive me for applying different worth to different vehicles. I truly have sinned by not acknowledging that all tanks, no matter how good or shit, are all equal in the hugbox children universe.

In bolt action, all the gas is directed towards pushing the bullet out the barrel, while in semi-auto and automatic, part of the gas is used to push the bolt back.

You really aren't hiding your mass shitposting very well.
I would suggest fixing your fucking keyboard first.
>>118221014
hey, RAAT, you're late to the party, Grab some popcorn.
>>118221046
You shit on your own tank for no reason.
>>118220312
Nice knee-jerk reaction.
They also got tore the fcuk up by Iraqis.
>>118220822
>all the gas is directed towards pushing the bullet out the barrel
I see, kind of makes sense that you want an extra punch when shooting from long distances
>>118221125
Shit talk the Bradley all you want, it has a perfectly fine service record.
>>118221084
>popcorn
>>118221125
No doubt you'll be able to give countless examples of them being
"tore the fcuk up" by Iraqis.
In fact why don't you just list the problems you have with the Bradley and we'll be sure to blow you the fuck out on every one - do try to think outside of pentagon wars.
I know its unfair denying you your primary resource.

There was a reason it was left in that cave, you know...

You
Shit
On your own tank.

>So what German units were involved at or near St. Vith that might have had tanks in that time frame? St. Vith was on the border between 6th Panzer Army in the north and 5th Panzer Army in the south. The closest units were those of the 6th Panzer Army's 2nd SS Panzer Corps and it seems that elements of the 9th SS Panzer Division were possibly those involved since it was sent in to support KG Hansen of the 1st SS Panzer Division farther north at Poteau. There was much intermingling of units on the limited road networks in the area and getting definitive location/time fixes for the units is not simple.
>Heavy tanks in the German armored units in the area all seem to have been Tiger II's, though Tiger I's were with one battalion (PANZER-ABTEILUNG (Funklenk) 301) that did not make it into the area. I spent some time looking at all these Tiger units' histories and could find only losses of Tiger II's on the 18th and none in the vicinity of St Vith, although Panzergruppe Peiper had some just north of St. Vith.
>The 7th Armored Division's combat on the 18th, according to Maj. Boyer's account, was primarily with elements of the 1st SS Panzer Division and the division's reported kills by the end of the 18th included 1 King Tiger, 9 Pz. IV's, 1 "assault gun 88mm (Ferdinand)", 2 75mm assault guns and 8 armored cars.
>Since there were numerous Pz IV's and Panthers operating with all these known German armored units, the possibility that the tank said to have been killed by the M8 was one of them cannot be ruled out, given the frequency with which the IV's and Panthers were misidentified as Tigers, and (for that matter) Nashorns and Jagdpanthers were misidentified as Ferdinands.

>Given what we know of the Tiger II's rear armor being 80mm, similar to that of the Tiger I, it stretches the imagination to conceive how a 37mm weapon (with at best around 50mm penetration) could succeed in knocking one out, even at point blank range from the rear. To be fair, both Tiger I and II did have openings in the rear hull for exhausts and it is not impossible for a lucky hit to penetrate one of those exhaust port openings and proceed on to ricochet in the engine compartment and perhaps damage the engine and/or fuel lines. Is this what happened?
>Like Jason, I have to agree that the evidence to prove this story is conflicting and not necessarily convincing. We have the documentation of a mechanized infantry company commander that he witnessed this M8 knock out a tiger and he was convinced enough of his facts that he reported it to his battalion S-3 (operations) officer, Major Boyer.
>In the end, each reader will have to decide what he elects to believe about this story: either the wartime reports of witnesses (and the well-regarded histories published after the war) or to depend upon postwar analysis of data, albeit by an amateur (yours truly.) Objectively, I have to give great weight to the latter (data), but the former (wartime reports) cannot be entirely discounted since, as we all know, in wartime almost anything seems to happen at least once.
>My take on it is that it is entirely possible that it happened, but the odds are frankly against it working out as described. Now I leave it to some other forum member to simulate the attack and see if his M8 can penetrate a Tiger's rear from point blank range.
Textbook example of what happens when you allow rumors and hearsay to run rampant and don't inform/educate your personnel.
tl;dr Murken military can't stop being retarded.

Out of curiosity are you the same guy who was posting in total war general?
You have the same fuck ups in your typing.

N-No! The superior commander clearly won!

You seem to be obsessed with that.
>I know its unfair denying you your primary resource.
You're projecting hard there, son.
>>118221460
Still waiting on all those issues with the Bradley anon. Don't feel the need to rush or dodge the question - I've got plenty of time.
>>118221345
>total war general
Is that a tabletop game?
>You have the same fuck ups in your typing.
?
>>118221530
>Is that a tabletop game?
Come on man, I don't really play RTS but even I know what Total War is.

Feel free to use that time to practice what you preach.

Nice try
>>118221530
So you are the same guy. Wonderful. I get to see you get #wrecked in two threads in such a short time.

These two are so fucking adorable. Thanks for posting, Momo.
Next chapter of the Takao sidestory is also here.
>spoiling a heavy cruiser's lunch
>>118221565
I'll be sure to do that just as soon as you list all the issues you have with the Bradley.
I'm sure I'll have enough time to gather all the information I have on the vehicle.
>>118221333
Anon... are you really posting a random videogame forum post by an armchair historian as a counter-source???
>>118221702
You issued the challenge, therefore you can deliver first. Certainly it shouldn't take any time at all for you.
>>118221849
You have reason to believe he's just pulling those combat units cited out of his ass?
>>118221849
In fact, a post where the armchaitr historian asks someone to try to replicate the scene in the videogame to see if it would work.
Really, REALLY wish it wasn't against board etiquette using emoticons, becaus this needs a "roll eyes" one.
Oh, what the fuck. Just once. 9_9. My apologies for that.
>>118221911
How can I deliver if I don't know your issues with the vehicle anon? In which areas is the M2 Bradley not good?
>>118221911
you were the one to make a claim, the other anon asked you to quantify it
all you are doing is dodging his question
>>118222028
The question isn't whether or not it worked, the question was whether or not there were even any Tigers there as claimed.
>>118222010
The combat units he quotes are the ones that say they withnessed a M8 knocking out a Tiger, and how. Not just an unconfirmed tale by the crew. A confirmed kill with withnesses (plural). THOSE are the ones I choose to believe.
