Yes you can chase it, but that would mean going through other tanks and support weapons of the opponent's army. If you are isolated or the enemy has swaths of tanks coming to you, then i doubt mark target is the issue at hand.
ofc... if you get rushed by 4 kts and you only got t34s and maybe some zis's itwont do much. but then most units/abilities wont do well when facing an overwhelming amount of enemies
my point is: the way it works doesnt seem to fit the concept of unit preservation. at least thats what i think. penetration would still make a target more vulerable of course, yet it wont reduce the amount of dmg its takes to kill it. i find it weird that ppl dont prefer increased pen since it would increase the terrible pen-chances most allied units have against late game super units. many seem to prefere unreliable (speak RNG-depended) but higher dmg...
It would be interesting to test Mark Target if it got changed to penetration bonus instead of damage. I guess that is what the open beta is for. Let's hope that Relic continues to use that in the future.
yeah. i do agree it seems preferable to me now, but it would need some testing for sure. could be its not doing anything i would like it to do (like make the soviet core units more efficient in attacking highly armored targets)
EDIT: i just noticed your signature. the fuck? i am german and i consider this HIGHLY disturbing and untrue... i love playing axis, too... but that is some seriously delusional bullshit.
that guy needs to be "politically reeducated" :KimJung-unSmile:
