all they need to do is fix the AB’s damage model
Many Tunis’ tank damage model seems weird, like shooting green area cause no damage (not even showing damage animation). AB41 is the worst one…

It does pen but the armor is super thin and the British use solid ammo, so no explosion or interior spalling on impact…
If you don’t hit a critical module, like ammo racks) your round likely will just pass through without causing critical damage. From the front, aim at the headlights, from the sides is easier to hit the ammo racks but you should probably practice at the range to discover where to aim.
A green crosshair indicator doesn’t mean destruction, it only means that the round will penetrate.
They Need to fix all models. Shoot the side of a a13 nothing ect

If they “fix” the AB, you will literally one shot them even with the worst allies tank and it will be unplayable. Same for the panther A on Normandy, his 75mm canon still bounce against a poor M5 Stuart while it supposed to pen from everywhere, same for the T34 on Berlin, the Panther is supposed to pen him from everywhere but it still bounce for nothing.
It has been done on purpose to “balance”, the armor on this game mean almost nothing.
it would depend on who gets the first shot since if AB gets first shot then A13 dies because APHE with an auto cannon, also the Boys AT rifle can and will struggle to do much damage to the AB 41 even at point blank. so yes fixing DMs should be done

The damage model isn’t great but you can kill the AB41 from the front or either side, usually it will take more than one shot. With the Boys AT rifle, it’s pretty easy to kill with one shot.
I can upload a video but people here will just say “lucky shots” because they want to believe what they want to believe
This just is NOT true. You can often one shot the AB41 from distance…IF you know where to aim
i don’t play at distance, i’m almost always a few meters from tanks and at that range the boys AT rifle should be able to cause major damage to both crew and ammo, not take 4 shots to turn yellow.
It works just fine, just need to know where to aim….and if you’re that close, why not use TNT?
because i’m still far enough away where TNT isn’t the best option
This is you………Are you telling me that “a few meters” is beyond the effective range of TNT?
I don’t think that you know what you’re talking about.
I have found the best way to kill it is straight down the middle on the vertical plate. For some reason i get a lot of kills from that. Aiming for ammo rack is useless since they hardly every blow up
few meters doesn’t tell you exactly how far away i am, just that i’m more than 2 meters away
oh man…you just won’t quit….what is “several”?
several is also more than two
mate it dosn’t damage the crew members either

You can play you’re word games all you want, the fact is that the Boys AT rifle (in the hands of someone who knows where to aim) does just fine taking out the AB41….and if you are “point blank” as you claim in one of your silly comments…it still works great, but TNT would probably be the better option in most cases
