Grenades generally do 80 damage and a stug has 560 health. After taking 3 160 damage shots (general tank damage) a stug will have 80 health left. Grenades also generally have enough pen to push it over the 3% ignore pen chance limit.

So less about being intended or a bug and more about the stats in the background building off each other (stug having 560 vs 640 health, grenades dealing exactly the difference, and grenades having a non ignorable penetration chance).

Yeah, that...sounds right. Grenades have like 25 pen, StuG G has 140 armour, toss 6 grenades at a StuG and one of em' at least will probably damage it.

I looks like grenades pen should be lowered so it would be less that 3% chance to pen against any MEDIUM armor.

I mean, come on... that a FRAG grenade, not some HE shit like RPG-40 (which, by the way, could pen only 15-20mm armor)

Honestly, he deserved to lose the stug for not using attack ground like any normal person would

There is a reason why they are useful vs light armor you know.

What happened there is unlikely, but possible, just like T-70/222 penetrating KT/IS-2 frontal armor.

Yes, because all nades have 35 penetration.
