Because of the absence of new garupan material, I'm beginning to show withdrawal symptoms. I started thinking about the schools we haven't seen yet and wondering about their tanks, behavior and tactics. Do the Hungarian and Swedish schools burry their hulls and use their turrets as pillboxes? Does the Polish school put hussar wings on their tanks?
Before I knew it, I had stepped into fanfic territory and made up my own Rhodesia themed school. If you'll excuse my faggotry and if anyone is interested, I would like to elaborate on my idea in the thread.

Rhodesia the country wouldn't exist until the 1960s but before that Rhodesia was the name of an area in the south-African commonwealth. Colonials from this area fought with allies in Egypt and Italy during the war. These forces used the same Shermans as the British but they did have something unique.
The T17E1 combat car was an American design that was rejected by the Americans in favor of other designs. However, it was widely used by Rhodesian colonials due to its high speed and firepower. The car used the same turret and 37mm gun as the M3 Lee, the armor was thin and it used wheels instead of tracks but it had an impressive top-speed and the Rhodesians upgraded it by fitting it with crusader turrets, 6-pdr guns and British 75mm guns.

The senshado team would use their Lee turret T17s scout and harass the opponent. They would lure the enemy into kill zones where they would get ambushed by waiting fireflies. Their offensive tactics would be to use their Shermans for covering-fire and distractions while the 6-pdr equipped T17s would rush the enemy flag-tank.
The schools emblem would be based on the patch I posted before and the senshado uniform would incorporate the classic Rhodesian olive drab short-shorts. The only thing missing is a name for the school.

Don't worry. I'm not desperate enough to start making up OC characters.
Though, when I think about it. Most crews would probably consist of Rosehip-tier speed freaks considering how fast the T17 is. Especially since it's an armored vehicle from the 40s.
Maybe the girls could speak Afrikaans with eachother to prevent eavesdropping.

Why did ōarai put the L/48 gun on the pzIV instead of the stug?
Wouldn't it be better to upgrade the stug and keep the pzIV in its ausf.F configuration?

The Pz IV's short barrel wasn't designed to be an AT weapon. It got upgraded to the 75mm cannon because its original one was very insufficient against its enemies.

The pzIV used the AT gun with the round muzzle break in the Pravda match and then it got the L/48

A lot of /k/ is as elitist as /a/ is.
If it isn't manly "men" discussing rifles, pistols, or shotguns, it's frowned upon.

...mostly.

You can see why half of the /ak/ threads over there usually get the same couple of shitposters trying to destroy it. If it's even remotely weeb, literal neckbeards have a hissy fit. It's funny, considering all the non-/k/ stuff that's posted half the time anyway...

It's true that tank designs got less diverse when everyone figured out the MBT principle but a lot of neat designs started to show up at that time. Stuff like SPGs that fully enclose the crew which makes it possible to use in senshado.

From my experience, I did greatly like WoT's map design moreso than Warthunder's. And although I disliked the very pay2win model on consumables, I did like that each vehicle had slots for custom upgrades to give it an extra level of personalization.

The Germans were feared for their efficient use of tanks in warfare. The Panzer III and IV were used quite effectively during the early stages of the war. The Germans put them to good use, despite their relatively poor performance.

Later tanks such as the Tiger were feared by the Allies. It was so infamous that even the Western Allies were afraid of it, despite having little engagements against it.

If you think the Germans being a "cool WW2 country" is a meme, then you're horribly wrong. There's a reason why the Allies tried to keep building better machines.
>>
>>135656353
I liked the prototype stuff but paper tanks is where I draw the line. Many designs that looked excellent on paper turned out to be disappointing either due to poor quality control or unexpected problems. The overlapping wheels on the tiger and Panther come to mind.

>>135657215
It wouldn't have been that great as a fighter either. Too fast.

Interceptor would have been its best role.
>>
>>135656956
When will this meme die? Early Pershing models were ergonomically shit and everyone hated them, so they kept being delayed, and when they were ready, Germany was basically out of tanks, and the guys on the ground wanted more 105s, not Pershings.
>>
>>135657215
That's what delayed the 262 so much.
Hitler was being an asshole and insisted on making it a fighter-bomber.

>>135657330

>>
>>135656994
The Bob Semple was the backbone of the Allied war machine. Without their half inch of armor we would have never got off Omaha. Without their blazing 24kph max speed we wouldn't have liberated France before the Nazis recuperated. Without the powerful array of weaponry of 6 LMGs we wouldn't have been able to defeat the remaining panzers at the Bulge.

Without the Bob Semple you'd be speaking German and wearing lederhosen right now.

I translated Yukari's character song, because there was no translation on animelyrics. A lot of words sounded untranslatable but googling revealed them to be tank terms (of course!). It's a touching song about Yukari finally being happy about being a tank nerd, because it connected her with everyone, I like it a lot. English is stiff, as usual.

Senshadou strives forward!

Always loving tanks, I relied on myself, but
I met! I met! I met
Comrades who can desant!!

Abandoning hip topics I make a pivot turn,
I can talk so much about things I like with them!
I never felst so happy before
Liking tanks was for the best!

Because we ride together, I'll do my best for everyone
Being helpfull because of my love for tanks - what a hapiness!
Joining hands in ring like caterpillar track, only on this road
I want to go wherever it leads, Senshadou strives forward!

Less is more, but better too big than too small,
It was usefull, it was usefull, it was usefull!
My knowledge of tanks!

Don't get overexcited or you'll break the mood.
Calm down, hold yourself back... but I kinda want to talk more!

I'm seeing the same dream with everyone, so
Liking tanks was for the best!

Armored fighting vehicles! All aboard and "Panzer Vor!"
I got carried away and said "Panzer Hai"
Like front drive wheels, road wheels, rear drive wheels, our personalities display
Alongside, I always want to advance, through uneven terrains and bad roads!

Being able to love tanks just as much as I love my friends,
It finally came - my bigest happiness!

Because we ride together, I'll do my best for everyone
Being helpfull because of my love for tanks - what a hapiness!
Joining hands in ring like caterpillar track, only on this road
I want to go wherever it leads, Senshadou strives forward!

As I understand the problem was not technical or even production. There was argument in 1930s about how would Luftwaffen be developed, the two main lines of thought where A) go with strategic longrange bomber force that can hit enemies far behind the frontlines or B) tactical bombers that would cut the enemy supply lines close to the frontlines.

Why the B choice won has many reasons but one of the things is is that a major supporter for the longrange bomber force died in plane crash when the decision between the two ways was being made.

Kay's analysis is that Alice correctly detached part of her force to deal with the threat of a single tank, that the one who got actually lucky was Centipede Team to be able to get past them (but got enough damage that was efectively out of the fight - an actual tactical victory for the detachment, that acomplished their objective of getting Centipede out of the fight, even if it costed them two tanks), and that Alice actually won the fight, even if she might feel otherwise.
Rememebr, boys and girls, the winner is not the one who kills teh most, is teh one who accomplishes its objectives. If the winner were the one who kills the most, Germany would have won both world wars, the US would have won Vietnam, etc.

after Shizuka sends a fucking "WE'RE HERE!" flare (page 8) and Kay wonders what Alice would do once she already knows Centipede position (page 9), Alice deliberately sticks to the plan (page 10) and, by-the-book, sends two tanks to create a fake opening (page 12) instead of taking the bait.

Whatever, I don't have stuff straight from /ak/ and will download again just get page with something I wanted to take from.
That page left and just posted it.

>Is that the one with Wojtek on its coat of arms or are there multiple Polish schools?
Bonple is one with Wojtek and one featured in this manga, what also feature other schools (unlike Little Army 2 what made new ones).
Sadly no bears or dogs mentioned or showed so far.

And Tiger II. With sloping upper part would be around 90 + 82 lower part. Compare it to:
Tiger I (80+60). German late war steel quality was very bad so Tiger I was actually slightly more protected in upper part.
or IS-2 (that had 90 / 15° mm while weighting slightly more than a Panther).
This suggests being used as a defensive weapon, from a favorable position. Tiger I and IS-2 are breakthrough tanks, Tiger II is a tank destroyer, just like Panther (which was better protected from the front than Tiger I thanks to sloping).

Their guns were designed to fire from more than a kilometre away as well. Late-war German tanks were more on the defensive than the offensive.

It's not proportionate to the weight of the tank, it's not really superior to Tiger I.

Nigga, they had more armor on the REAR of the tank than some tanks had to the front. They were NOT "well protected only from the front". If you were to mention the Panther (a medium with late-war-heavy-level protection to the front but interwar-light-level protection to the sides, we'd be talking about a tank "well protected only from the front".
But the Panther has already been mentioned as the exception and not the rule, anyways.

This is better than having wings. Those schools are experienced tank users , and they not do anything impractical or silly like main school girls in their first match (especially Hippo team).
