@ Relic, please expand prioritise vehicles

Also offtopic, if you're starting with 'I was charging with my 3 tigers', you can't expect all people to respond in a constructive way

It's not trolly, I just don't agree like I said.
Sorry to not agree man.

Since the Tiger seems to be a bit of a sore spot for a couple folks, here's an alternative example.

I chase an Ostwind with my Sherman. He ducks behind a building for a second and my Sherman loses direct line of sight to the target for a brief moment. It is in that split second my Sherman reloads. There is absolutely nothing I can do to make the Sherman keep the shot loaded until it rounds the corner instead of rotating its turret 90 degrees to take a potshot at a cache. My Sherman has to spend another 6 seconds reloading, the Ostwind blitzes away, I take a faust and I cannot pursue.

There is no micro in the game that can prevent that- the only way to stop the tank shooting is with ground attack, and you cannot ground attack and have the tank move and chase at the same time.

What's wrong with charging three tigers? Charing 4 T/34-85s is okay but not Tigers? Also you're saying that adding prioritize vehicles for all tanks will take micro out of the game.. Lol, there's NO WAY to control a tanks turrent, so I don't see how it even makes sense to make this argument. If let's say you could control the turret using clicks to force it to face a certain direction before an engagement, it would make sense to not have prioritize vehicles because it would be easy mode; But having your tanks shoot like morons at a cache before a big engagement with ISUs, KTs, Tigers, IS2s is plain stupid.

Biggest mistake was implement the "target tanks only" function for AT guns. The little skill ceiling in this game was even more reduced and it was a good tactic to have AT guns on hold fire even if tanks where in range to lure them in so when you opened fire with 2 AT guns it was too late to reverse out of the firing range of the AT guns. But to micro the "hold fire" ability was too much for scrubs and Relic gave in.
