Strange fact about ramming T34s

It appears that you can ram ANY vehicle.

Allthough this is not generally relevant, it may in some special cases be it. I discovered this recently in a team game where my team mate rammed a pak which allowed the other approaching, and allready damaged, tanks to press on their base raid.

Yep I have experienced this a few times. Moving a pak43 infront of a ram will save you.

Also, don't know if its been fixed but t34 also used to ram houses if the vehicle being targeted moves and the t34 slightly touches the building on approach.

Nope, but your t34 does :D

I really don't know if it still happens though, havn't seen it in a couple months.

Went for a ram in a game the other night and my opponent just happened to be crossing a PGren squad in front of his P4 when I did it. Crushed the entire squad and got the ram.

The best is when your T34 goes out of control upon death and runs over the Panzerschrek squad that killed it.

Funny comments, but I think most of you overlooked something: Paks can be rammed deliberately. Not just because it gets in the way.

does it destroy the pak?
because you can't 'disable main gun' or
'damaage engine' a pak

i don't know if it'd be useful without completely destroying it, but that might be too OP

I tried ramming a PaK and it wouldn't let me. Not sure if that's true.

OK, strange. And atm I have no test to prove it.

It's been a while allready so I'm not sure about the details anymore. AFAIR there was no enemy tank nearby. That's why I considered it a deliberate ram of the pak. But you know - it's easy to miss something in the midst of the mayhem.

In any case: yes, the pak was destroyed.

lol.

In a recent attempt, a BUSH blocked my ram. Ie. the AI drove the tank into a bush and then the ram was aborted.

I think it's a bit too bulky that you need to take all kinds of factors into consideration for a ram to be successfull. Quite often you only have a second to decide it before the T34 is killed itself.

I find my self clicking and re-clicking a lot on ram before it actually activates. What's the deal with that?

Yeah Ive had that annoying click thing where it just does not activate.

Gernally, I think the best bet is to make sre you have your T34 in ram friendly territoy, if you think there is a chance you will need to use it. True sight can work out nice, i.e. hide behind a bush, so enemy tank will get a supprise ram in the side before he knows your there.


Also, handy tip about ram (for things like Tiger or Tiger Ace), I think a tank with a critical cannot be given the same critical again.. so try to have 2 T34s together, if the 1st gets only a crew shock, try to ram the second before it wears off because Im fairly sure as long as it penetrates, its going to do better damage.
