AT gun and AA gun destruction shouldn’t kill the crew.
It simply doesn’t make much sense.
Of course if the gun is destroyed by a tank shell for example, crew should die but not from the gun being destroyed but from injuries from the shell.

so… you’re suggesting that all the crew simply gets ejected with 20/30% of damage inflicted and wonder off like that?
not sure, i can see points to both arguments.
hence, kinda neutral about it.

Yes.
Crew should die if it gets hit. Not because it’s gun is destroyed. It doesn’t make sense.

i mean,
you would somewhat die from HE anyway, right?
i just don’t get why they changed it to only being able to destroy those through APs.
which… at the same time, i’m fairly sure unless you are using some early war tanks, you’d still be able to pen and kill the operator with ap.
AT cannons are just… weird.
( ragarding how they should work, and how they actually work )
not that it particularly affect me, but… sure i guees
I mean situations like:
My gun is destroyed by AT rifle and I’m dead even tough I wasn’t hit.
well, no. my point was,
you’d die either way through AP / HE.
because, with HE, you kill infantry ( and you were able to destroy at guns too )
and now, with ap you destroy the gun it self.
which, has shells loaded. so, technically, it’s not fairy tale from a perspective.
but now that i think about it, it is somewhat weird that at rifles can kill and destroy guns.
should be like the heavy HMG where if the gun is destroyed, you will not die ( unless HEd or Aped right through the face with the gun it self )

at guns being hit with a AP shell creates HUGE amounts of shrapnel, killing everything in the vicinity, same goes for a too heavy HE shell.
same effect happens when a heavy shell hits a tank without penetration, but the energy makes stuff on the inside of the tank fly around like shrapnel, which also kills the crew.

Keep in mind that even an AT gun needs to store its shells somewhere.
So you could always say the shot ignited some spare rounds even when an ammorack is not modelled.
I have a shovel so I’d store them in a pit for immediate use. So AT rifle can’t hurt them.

so instead of build gun, fire, move gun, fire
it would be build gun, dig pit, fire, move gun, dig pit, fire
i can make it even better build gun, install spall liner, hang artillery is the king of battle sign, put the kettle on the burner for tea, dig pit, fire, move gun dig pit, take the biscuits out of the oven fire

wait, regular gun firing can destroy AA guns?
AT rifle can OHK it together with crew.
With normal rifle you can try to kill soldier operating it but hitbox can be a git weird.
oh? where do you need to shoot it with the AT rifle? i haven’t actually tried to shoot them with one.
I don’t know. I’m usually on the receiving end
