Please stick to the points raised (4 to 10). Even a Doughboy knows a tank is easier destroyed with a shot to the rear whatever kind of tank it is. I expect this applies today as it did 60 years ago. And if you are a tank driver who wants most armor on the rear of his machine than the front then I can only say that is a weapon designed to flee not fight.
My bad, you are right it is a Panzer 4 in game, but strangely equipped with the low velocity 57mm cannon. I am not sure the Germans produced any in this variation as the Panzer 4 was an upgraded Panzer 3 specifically designed to counter the T-34 and thus equipped with a higher velocity 75mm cannon.
The "Tsar" tank looks more Victorian than 20th century. Like a Penny Farthing bicycle more than a tank. Although considering the time (1914) it may have proved a shock to the enemy had it been mass produced. The British didn't get their first tank to the battlefield until 1916. It may have been more advanced but by all accounts the MK1 the British fielded as the first proper tank gave a mixed bag of results and was by no means perfect. German gun crews quickly learned to level their artillery pieces at the British tanks. This was when tank armor consisted of bolted mild steel plate making it vulnerable to high explosive. The British MK1 also gave a fat profile and frontal target to aim for. The main advantage the British MK1 had was the surprise and shock to the enemy, soon lost when the Germans learned of the MK1's deficiencies and the fear factor wore off. Improvements in design and tactics were applied to the British MK1 over the final two years of WW1 which actually made much more difference compared to the early performance of the British MK1. But to put things into perspective, in 1914 when the "Tsar" tank was first produced as a design, no other country had what could be considered to be a tank. As Russia was knocked out of the war by 1917, we can only speculate what would have been had Russia managed to mass produce the "Tsar" tank between 1914 and 1916.
Some thoughts on the relative strengths and weaknesses of the Tiger vs M10 are in my estimation as follows.
1) Tiger has slightly more armor than M10.
2) M10 has slightly more cannon power than Tiger.
3) 1 cancels 2 out so a fair trade off.
4) Against lights (Sherman Panzer III) the Tiger has to hit the light in the hull 3 times to kill. M10 needs to hit the hull of the light 2 times to kill. This is a big advantage for the M10 when shot reload times for both Tiger and M10 are the same. When considering the distance that can be closed by an enemy light over 4 seconds (Tiger and M10 shot reload time) it means the light driver gets to close the distance on the enemy Tiger and a much better chance of a bail and mine or ex pack. Advantage M10.
5) The Tiger's cannon yields slightly less splash damage than the M10. This is another bonus for the M10 for obvious reasons. Firstly it means in a heavy duel that the M10 can kill of blow the Tiger driver away from their tank easier when a repair is being performed outside of the tank. Advantage M10.
6) Tiger tracks are twice as wide as M10 tracks, making for a smaller target area to aim at on the M10. Advantage M10.
7) Recoil. This is something I am not exactly sure of, but it seems the Tiger has a more pronounced recoil physics than the Tiger. This could be down to suspension travel. I think the M10 despite having a slightly more powerful cannon actually produces less recoil than the Tiger. So I am calling advantage M10.
8) Pad sitting. This is a very important area because an enemy light on a pad can still be made to burn with 2 shots to the hull from an M10. But a Tiger needs 3 shots at the hull to produce the same effect. When factoring in the shot reload time for the heavies (4 seconds) this is advantage M10.
9) Flank shots. An M10 can make a light burn with a single shot to the flank or side of tracks. A Tiger takes two shots to kill an enemy light with a hit to the same area. Advantage M10.
10) Repair. As the Tiger has slightly more armor than the M10 it means the M10 takes less time to repair to full strength than the Tiger. Important when shot reload times are factored. Advantage M10.
These are all observations I have made that added up, means a clear overall game advantage for the M10 over the Tiger.
Points 1 to 3 should be self evident.
Does anyone disagree or have an opinion on points 4 to 10?
It was a good joke. You had me fooled.
Aberdeen is one of the least popular or populated maps but it has it's veterans and the map is well balanced if you accept it as a tank map. If there is no way to broaden it's appeal then can we have a 1vs1 dedicated Aberdeen server for professionals as well as the standard server for the professionals to knock off a few dozen sniper class who take heavies. Simple Tanks A Lot 1vs1 Challenge. Three 30 minute rounds 1st to 10 kills each round that's the same as killing medics in lights for 45 minutes standard game which is less than a challenge.
Been there 5 minutes. You got another 5 to join the party. Thanks a Lot!
Right now?
How about a Simple Tanks A Lot 1vs1 dedicated server with 4 player slots. One each for the combatants, and a spare seat for the observer. Or in your case the witness. Who knows, it might just start a league. Remember the league simon?
The most costly mistake the Luftwaffe ever made in WW2 was not to plan for the simple expedient of long range drop tanks for their Messerschmitt BF109. During the Battle Of Britain, BF109's only had 15 minutes of flying time over enemy territory before they had to turn back for lack of fuel. Spitfires were taking off and into battle immediately. This also meant the BF109s could not escort the bombers all the way to the target. Leaving the Heinkels and Dorniers as easy meat for the Hurricanes of the R.A.F.
If anyone needs medical advice O' Sullivan it's you to have your head removed from your ass, and some hormone treatment so you grow balls and stop cheating.
Don't bother, it was tried out on EA10 with a tank map rotation and regulars complained. As for who Simon is, that's a good question. I'll answer it with a cheating little hacker kid from Estonia that no admin dares do anything about because him and his brother attack the server if they are ever punished. I have another suggestion. A Simple Tanks a Lot dedicated Aberdeen server with two player slots for 1vs1.
You deserve to be team killed you cheating cunt.
You and your brother are pieces of slime.
O' Sullivan cheated against me recently. He's an encyclopedia of cheating. A few of you here seem to acknowledge the existence of cheating and taking part in it by one excuse or another. Aimbot being a question without conclusion 14 years on. Trust only your eyes and instincts. And when a player scores an impossible shot, after calculating the circumstances, when coincidence, accident, or providence are ruled out - only cheating remains.
Alvarez Latino was caught cheating on the old Arcor Arena Aberdeen server. I would also like to say that Alvarez Latino was the first ever BF1942 player to team kill me maliciously.
I don't think there's time to be nice to everyone but not everyone is nice, that's where pay back comes in.
Too lenient. That's why you indulge simon and deeko. Carry on banning me for doing exactly the same things to simon and deeko as they did on Simple tanks and got away with and never had to pay for and you were one of their victims. Carry on letting them cheat. Maybe I'll learn my lesson. Maybe they'll never have to go to school. Whatever the case I want my pound of flesh.
Why can't there be a monthly Simple tank championship 1vs1 and 2vs2. That way Nomax would be forced to face me at some point. And with spectators simon and deeko could not cheat.
I'll fight you for Admin rights on Netorn Tanks 1vs1 best of 3 rounds Nomax, and if I lose I'll serve a week ban. If you lose I get to kick or ban you for a week worth of Simple Aberdeen Admin rights. Should I choose to do so.
I am already unbanned. The ban was for a day. But bans can be for much longer. I'm just obeying them now instead of evading them.
Hello, today I was banned by Admin "infantry" for disrupting simon and deeko's game. These pair are known cheats. They also have a huge back history of game disruption as I'm sure many of the Simple Aberdeen players will know and have experience of. One of the players who felt the full force of the idiot brothers game disrupting and collaborative team killing is player "infantry" himself. He begged me via personal email to tell him how to evade a ban, around the time he was being harrassed and hassled by simon and deeko. I did not tell him, and if I wanted to I could avoid Admin "infantry"s ban immediately, but I will obey it's duration. I will from now on obey any ban of any duration by any Admin on the basis that any server which punishes me for extracting a fraction of the vengance due to simon and deeko is welcome to them and not one I want to play on anyway.
i never caught for hack or cheating sepp just stop with that or bring some proof and you can't because it doesnt exist just from your sick brain...
You were caught on Arcor Arena Aberdeen using the auto-repair cheat years ago Latino. Now you are an Admin on Simple and use the same bug exploits that simon and deeko use. 3 cheats. One of them an Admin.
I apologise for my lack of exacting grammar and correct it to demonstrate the shaky ground you use to criticise my statements and that you have no grounds to oppose what I say with any counter argument or debatable point. "Ein volk, ein reich, ein fuhrer" should read as "Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Fuhrer". As you can see there is a massive difference between these two examples. Excuse my sarcasm, but there really is no other way of demonstrating your obfuscation of the main thrust of the subject. If you have any criticism regarding the pertinence of the subject, can you explore the denial with a counter critique, rather than reduce the situation to a transparent and weak rebuttal based on obvious and evasive techniques that show your ignorance.
Because race and nation is exactly what Germany was between 1933 and 1945. "Ein volk, ein reich, ein fuhrer" (One people, one nation, one leader). Therefore race and nationality are one and the same. There is a double standard - as Germany was attacked and destroyed for it's position, whereas Israel (Jews) get away with the same thing without criticism. The Jewish State. That's what Israel insists on being called. By it's definition, the nation is the race. The nation is the people. So, in summary, your question holds no water with regard to my statement.
That's simon or deeko. Known cheats hackers glitchers team killers game disruptors. And faggots.
Simon and Deeko, cheating hacking faggots. Everyone knows. If you want to teach these two little homo pricks a lesson, then team up with me and we'll wreck their game the same way they did on Simple and got away with it. Now they lay low and hide under new names, but they still cheat. And they will always be faggots. Cheating, hacking, queers. Player "infantry" had a dose of their antics, and complained more than anyone on this forum about their game disruption and cheating. Now player "infantry" is an Admin, he doesn't kick them. He kicks me for trying to disrupt Simon and Deeko's game. To give you an idea of the caliber of Admins, player "infantry" once begged me via emails to show him how to evade bans so he could go after that pair of cheating, hacking, homosexual muscle mary bum bandits. Player "Alvarez Latino" was busted for cheating on EA10 Aberdeen. He too is an Admin.
The very essence Jewry is to lie and deceive in order that they, as a minority, can control us "gentiles". The Jew, is indeed, Satanic. Take a page from the Talmud. Read it. Then you will be aware of the Jews intentions.

Jews are the ultimate racists. Their creedo is a racioreligious one. Race and religion for Jews, are inseperable. Have you ever wondered why Israel insists on being called "The Jewish State"? Why is it okay for Israel to be The Jewish State, but not okay for Germany to be The Aryan State? Some of you should have a better understanding of historical record and the teachings of Jews. Their religious texts are full of racism. Their status as eternal "victims" because they have been "persecuted" is a litany of criminal exploits and conspiracy to rule by divide and conquer. There really is not room on these pages to go in depth on the subject of Jewish Marxist Zionist malfeasance. The best anyone with a mind that has not been brainwashed by Jewish propaganda can do is explore the record. Mass immigration to white homelands is an entirely Jewish device to undermine the identity of nations and their people. By these and other subterfuges, Jews are a minority in control.
