Almost. Knapp daneben ist auch vorbei. [:)]
I blame it on the cunning camouflage.
All the best

How old are you?
My guess is that is a Panzer IVF-2 (or whichever the first model was with the long 75), by the looks of it, at the end of the target line. At this angle penetration by the 45mm should be possible, but you may just be unlucky. After-armour effects are an open question. Even if the Panzer IV cops it though, the remainder of the formation should make mince-meat of the T-70. Of course, you maybe lucky and the 75mm round may pass straight through the T70 without doing more than add ventilation. I wouldn't bet on it though.
Old enough to know that you can put your ruler away.
There is a gun pointed at you and he's unlucky enough to have its flank exposed. Drill him.
If you try to manouver, they are two and can split and trap you.

Read what I write and respond to that. Not to what you think I wrote. There is a difference.

The original question was :
What to do... button up and fight? or run away....
Then you answered with phrases like;
-You
are dead.
- it is
too late to run.
-penetration by the 45mm
should be possible
-but you
may just be unlucky.
-After-armour effects are
an open question
-
I wouldn't bet on it though.
But the original question was very simple.
You have 2 choices
1) button up and fight
2) run away
So what is your answer?
You tell me [X(]

Its already been pointed out that the Soviet T70 is shocked. He isn't going to do much.

Dear Yoozername & Andreas1968 parents.
Your son is dead. They died thinking.

Dear Yoozername parents,
Witnesses to Yoozername's death heard his last words. No they weren't "attack!".
He was heard to whisper..."maybe". He was uncertain until the end.

Ok, cut it out please. Posting comments about the screenshot situation is fine, keep away from personal comments.
Kevin did mention the T-70 crew was stunned, which means they are pretty much going to watch the next few shots from that PzIVE slam into their tank. That little red lightning looking thing in the first shot in the T-70 info text area shows that htey are stunned. If they weren't stunned they'd be following their orders (Engaging - Firing at the PzIVE's flank) but as is, they're pretty darn likely to be toast.
Regards,
- Erik

Sorry to disappoint, but the battle was never finished. We were just going through a few turns to work out an enhancement.
