<t>Hello Possum,<br/>
<br/>
thank you very much. Because of your and Paul Vebbers help, the formula is now much clearer for me. I can now calculate more realistic values for the explosion rocket types.<br/>
After I have done that I will look into the accuracy settings. I have some data about the ...

<t>Some days ago I postet a list of data to russian/german rocket types.<br/>
<br/>
Now I tried to calculate how the real HE-Penetration and HE-Kill values for that rockets should be. The easiest thing to compare would be normal explosive bombs (not fragmentation bombs (with the exception of the ...

Absolutely and historically correct. MGs are correct handled in 6.1.

12. If you hit the gun, very common that you do because of its size, the ammo lying about will often explode also killing the crew etc.<br/>

Not completely true, often the ammunition ...

I had that experience too, but only with enemy vehicles after a rocket hit. With hand grenades Ive never seen that happen.

@PBEAR

Thank you for the suggestion.
I will post my topic there.

Iam not impressed at all. The long campaign is even with hard battle on and +200% morale/experience for the enemy to easy. So what?

I dont complain about missing units, or at least not to much. But I wonder why there are such discrepancies with allready existing units.<br/>
And the rocket systems are surely not the only weapon systems who could live with a little bit more realism.<br/>

For example ...

@David boutwell

That place is called "Arnheim", not "Arnhem".

<t>I know that there have to be certain compromises between playability and historical accuracy. But I suppose it would not affect the game to much to use for example the correct range values.<br/>
And about different penetration and HE-Kill values, well I dont know how much that would affect the ...

<t>First some data about russian rocket types used in SPWAW:<br/>
<br/>
M-8 original Data<br/>
<br/>
Diameter: 82mm<br/>
Lenght: 745 mm<br/>
Weight complete: 8 kg<br/>
Weight Explosive: 0,64 kg<br/>
Weight Fuel: 1,18 kg<br/>
Velocity: 315 m/s<br/>
Range: 5515 m<br/>
<br/>
M-8 Data extracted from ...

<r>I doubt that anyone who read Greg McCarthys and M10Bobs posts can honestly argue my point. They are living examples of my thesis and obviously born to countercaricature themselves.<br/>
There are some other very good examples, but I think its enough for now.<br/>
<br/>
I had fun and I hope some ...

Do you know the Sherman M48? If you want to have something to laugh about, use this system. It needed a gasoline motor to start its ...

Well it was a victory, but surely no heroical victory. If you win while having a material advantage of more than 10 to 1 and you still take heavy losses, I would say there is something wrong.<br/>

First I would like to thank you for informing me about the reasons the penetration calculation is done like its done.<br/>

While it is true that the penetration value of Uranium ammunition is greatly enhanced, I doubt that it was needed against irakian tanks. But there is a high danger for the crews by using it. Ive seen some reports in which they showed the amount of Uranium stored in the ...
