Perhaps there will be extra bonus point for OST scout car?
Since it lack the killing power and survivability that others light tank has.

Well, why would there be? It doesn't compete with the tanks from the other factions - the winner is determined within each faction, remember?

Vegatry is right tho. You'll have to judge the scoutcar very differently than the other ones because

1. Its technically not a tank but a car. the title says that too. there are different mechanics at work for cars and tanks in this game. Like road bonuses and such. Take that into consideration

2. The scoutcar can be damaged by normal rifle and submachinegun fire. therefor it is very vulnerable to everything. Thus making it harder to compare to the tanks in this equation which dont get harmed by regular rifle / submachinegun fire at all.

So scoring isnt comparable. Where the t70 may make 60 kills, the same number for a scoutcar means that it overperformed double the standard of a T70. you'll have to take that into consideration

but hey, its just a game right?

Yes, Scout car is not a tank. But you do realize that it doesn't matter how many kills T-70 or Stuart tanks get? It is judged in comparison to the other Scout cars of Wehrmacht (not other factions). And there is no 1st, 2nd or 3rd place.

We are fully aware of the differences of tanks and the scoutcar.
There is no light tank as the t70 / stuart / luchs for Wehr players, so this is the only thing Wehrplayers get.

Plus it doesn't matter, if you want the most kills and you are convinced that this is only possible with a 'real light tank', well go for it and use another faction :).

The scoutcar is compared to other scoutcars, and style-wise, the scoutcar can do some cool stuff too :).

Hey Kreatiir very nice ideal but just a question : How about replace the Werh Scoutcar with Ostwind ?

I mean, it also " like " a light tank : Very good Anti-infantry but bad against medium tanks right? Also normal rifle can't do any damage to it :D.

Scout car should be left for something like Anti-Air Fest :D ( M5 Halftrack , Flak Halftrack, AA Halftrack, Scout car :D - cause all of this vehicles can be damage by normal rifle and capable of both anti-infantry and anti-air.)

It's just my personal opinion :). Hope to hear your respond.

Cheers.

hei,

nice idea, but there is a slight problem with the americans:



no, it wasnt only the stuart who did those 3 vehicle kills, but also a jeep before and a sherman after him. so technically, i could never make a screenshot showing only his kills!
of course, the sherman isnt a problem, but the jeep is...

Hu?
If there is 3 kills on the statsboard, he made the final killshot and not the Sherman or truck.

Oh crap no, I had an AMAZING game with the Sd. Kfz. 222 Scout Car that I wanted to submit in which it wiped a total of 6 squads and got comfortably into vet 3... but that tiny luftwaffe supply doctrine patch invalidated the replay! I watched it only today, don't tell me it's gone forever?? D:
