So again, you want to turn it into 280mp/85fu AT nade.
Give me a single reason why I would want to EVER use that instead of AT nades? No, 100% engine damage is not convincing, unless T34 gets out without a scratch.
Still AT nade/mine. I'd rather use that instead of give a free tank kill for engine damage only.
So does mine/AT nade and yet again, it doesn't require to give free tank kill(because the rammed tank would obviously effortlessly finish off T34 if you didn't got that yet).
I want a functional ability with reliable effect that will not cost me a whole friggin tank or a MOBILE AT source in T3 that would be either sufficient ram compliment or could work on its own, obviously not on SU-85 level.
And we're back at step 1, WHY would I want to EVER use ram to get same effect as mine/AT nade if I can use much cheaper mine/AT nade? Again, 100% chance is not convincing at all.
Me too, but your suggestion means always 100% dead T34 for something that T0 infantry can do for ~30 munition.
So yea, I'd rather have current roulette then "hey, let me love you" ability that will ensure my T34 will be a scrap metal within 10 seconds.
Out of all the changes suggested to it, the only one that actually makes sense is long crew shock for both tanks.
I don't know how the game runs on your PC, but on mine inf takes 3 minutes to go from one side of the map to other, it also cannot go through fences and hedges and often gets pinned down by HMG's and/or mowed down by other infantry or target tank just keeps away.
None of that stops my T34 ramming a panther and gives me speed and manouverability to outflank overextended tank and attack it.
Ram causes significantly more damage than AT nade, no?
If you have 1 T34 without support, don't ram the Tiger. Unless you think you can finish it off.
Now of course the whole thing should be tested and balanced and additional tweeks added.
What I am talking here about is mechanic of minimizing RNG and lowering the luck part of it.
I didn't hear your solution other then: "I want a functional ability with reliable effect"
Because that's what I want as well, I just gave my opinion on what it should be like
