152mm of frontal armor on the Churchill MKVII, wasn't sloped but there was so much it was effective at stopping shots.

Remind me again how sloped Tigers 120mm was again? That should show some reference.

All wore red berets, officers and men


Er, claret or maroon please. Chosen by the (famous) novelist Daphne Du Maurier, wife of Maj. Gen 'Boy' Browning (architect of the Parachute Regiment in the early 40's). Browning wanted distinctive headgear for the new outfit, and trusted his wife's impeccable taste.

The Red beret, in the British army, is worn by the military police.

I think I heard of such a concept before.

:D

Whilst I will accept your stricture (to a point), I think you are being a little unfair: my previous post #80 (unedited) does initially refer to the maroon beret.

But, as you must well know, the colloquial reference to the paratroopers is the "Red Berets"

All I want is an actual heavy tank counter. None of this Soviet mediocre dual purpose shit, or US mobile but lighter AT shit. Just a big ass AT gun that will make german players think twice about charging tigers straight into my front lines.
17 pounder was the heaviest AT gun the allies had. Soooo long German heavy rush!

90mm with HVAP has comparable armor penetration to 17 pounder with APDS, while being more accurate at long ranges and more destructive after penetration. I would probably make the case that the 90mm was the heaviest AT gun, but they were both good.

Relic does whatever it pleases with this stuff tho, so the 17 pounder will probably have 2 million penetration for some reason :D

Penetration value should be coded as "Fuck your armour."

17 pounder was equivalent to the pak40 with standard rounds roughly. It was the APDS rounds that gave it very high penetration. Like 204mm of penetration.

No stupid lol-gun penetrating KTs almost every time from the front.

The fucking Panther had a slightly better gun yet can´t reliably penetrate IS-2s.

No double standards.
