I intend to take a break from TBF testing for a while. When I return in the new year I hope to find the game's armoured vehicles as believable as the game's infantry. In other words I hope to find...

1. AFVs never troubled by illogical/inappropriate STEEP ANGLE, WRONG FACING and BAD SHOT situations.

2. Competent tank gunners.

3. Tanks that can spot eminently spottable infantry

4. AFVs that never 'freeze' in confused states.

5. AFVs that can reverse in all directions.

6. AFVs that can't camouflage themselves to the point of invisibility on beaches, and in roads, pastures etc.

7. AFVs that can, under no circumstances, enter buildings.

8. AFVs that can't be located with help from a movement order.

9. AFVs that pathfind in a plausible fashion.

10. AFVs that never wear their main guns at weird angles or generate Siamese twins when killed.

11. AFVs that always select targets intelligently.

12. AFVs that react plausibly to losing their main guns.

13. AFVs prepared, in dire straits, to use HE against tanks even when the mathematical chance of penetration is zero.

14. All open-topped AFVs are valid mortar targets.

15. AFVs that hose armoured targets with their MGs to range-find, distract etc.

Keep up the good work, Steve, Surtur etc. If the game keeps maturing at its current rate, then even sticklers like me may come to love it!
