.45 ACP & 9mm FMJ

The_Chieftain: I think this argument is missing, for a military-themed forum, the
most important question. "What effect are you trying to have with
your pistol?" You've been all rabbiting on about terminal
ballistics and incapacitation and whatnot. I submit that for the
typical grunt, this is irrelevant. The average Joe (not MARSOC
elite or whatever) using his sidearm isn't trying to kill or
incapacitate anyone. The chances are that the reason that someone
like me is using my sidearm is because something has gone seriously
wrong, and I'm just trying to make my way back to my tank/get the
hell away from wherever I am/get to a bigger gun. I'm shooting for
suppressive/psychological effect. Round A may be less effective
than round B, but does that really matter to the guy on the
receiving end? He hears lots of bangs, and impacts near him, is he
going to think to himself "Ah, it's just a 9mm, not a .45, I'll
stick my head out, it won't hurt as much if it hits me"? I doubt
it. And, put simply, one gets more bangs from a 9mm than from a
.45. So as my sidearms in the military context, I'll take
the 9mm over the .45 please.

The_Chieftain: We do our damndest to get to things within 24 hours, more often
than not we beat that. (The average is actually substantially
lower). However, it's not unheard of for us to take over a day,
depending on ticket loads and staffing levels. With lots more
people taking time off work and time off holidays (and thus playing
more games), even though we don't let too many people take their
christmas holidays at the same time, this doesn't surprise me. PM
me your ticket number, I'll make sure it's actually in the queue.
If it is, the lads will get to it when they get to it.

The_Chieftain: I might point out that in the game we are a little flexible with
the whole autoloader thing.... T57 for example should have an 8
round drum, AMX-13 12, T54E1 about 10... By those standards,
IS-7 would have about three rounds, then a long reload. Think AMX
Foch 155.

Tiger 2 testing The_Chieftain: Heh. You don't think we've trawled through those resumes
before to see what of interest may be out there? 
We found the first two, or at least, what's left of
them that we could find in the Archives. The M6A2E1 file has
fidelity thicknesses (You know, those squares that the US paints on
its turrets for measuring) for some reason for only the
turret sides and rear, nothing for the front. The 8" T28 ballistic
report is quite literally a firing report, and it has some written
specifications as to thicknesses at points of impact, but no
drawings or photographs, so we're sort of guessing. I think it's
enough for implementation, however. I don't recall the third one.

Quote Let’s say someone has a Great Idea™ that they want to fit an autoloader into the T30 Heavy Tank. They kick it up the chain, and the project gets approved. The end goal’s nomenclature is “Tank, Heavy T30E1”, but the Army doesn’t work that way. The Dept of the Army assigned it the project number 545-07-005, probably to track the funds. Somewhere along the line, as a new tank model, it got assigned to the Ordnance Branch. The Ordnance Branch gave it the internal project number TT2-479C. Why TT2-479C? Because it came after TT2-479B of course! So even after you find the document stating that TT2-479C is the T30E1, you have to find the document cross-linking with the Dept of the Army project number. Got a box ID for that? No? Hmm…

The_Chieftain: Such a document may exist, but I haven't come across it yet. That
said, have you seen the Aberdeen test resumes? Some good info on
these, at least it lists pretty much every test Aberdeen conducted
with a two-line summary of the result. We've found it very useful
in discovering if a test was even done. Unfortunately, just because
a test is listed, doesn't mean the report still exists or is easy
to find. Unfortunately, I've only been able to track down these
three volumes. 1,

This is Nessie. 
Nessie's been with me a very long time. Since the late 1990s,
actually. 
You will note that
she wears jump wings. She did all five jumps in my pocket, and has
her own logbook, duly stamped. (Chap in charge of the course was
Scottish, so he ran with it). Nessie is no stranger to
tanks. Starting with a good British one... 
Moving to the Abrams.
You know, now I think of
it, I don't know if I have a photo of her on a Brad. She
loves the smell of spent propellant, like any good tanker.
I guess you could call
her my own turret monster.

state for firing? The 7+ rounds a minute was an average and
he said the burst would have been very fast with a long reloading
the rack time. IS-7 semi-autoloader anyone????? Gun was
nearly equal to the jagtigers 12.8mm..... So sad they nerfed
the is-7.

real autoloader capacity. And the AMX-13 would be quite evil too..

that a thing. I thought that the Churchill was the only one to get
a hilariously huge gun. Did they ever build any of these things?

players, tanks or tier points. So yes, 5 players is allowed.

Could WG just withdraw all tonk prizes?
Absolute max currently possible is 25, and it is already close to unrealistic to hit even leo.

Captain_Judo: Teams earn auto wins when scheduled against dropped/DQ'd
opponents. So you might say this makes it easier to achieve those
milestones.

Lert: More or less. By the time the guy with the highest ping finally
gets updated, the guy with the lowest ping has gotten two or three
new updates. Then there's the discrepancy between what's shown on
the screen and what the server 'sees', and since it's the server
that decides all the important stuff, sometimes things come across
broken. Try server reticle for an example, so you can see the
difference of where your gun is aiming and where the server thinks
it's aiming.

going to change spotting so that a tank in the open (at more than
200 meters ...... ) isn't going to vanish again just because it
stopped moving and the camo factor changed. While I will
defend the current spotting system for working and being
predictable, I will also agree that it is very clunky and these
changes would make it a lot more transparent, and hopefuly that
would mean less threads like this.

packetloss. Gotta say though, I love your avatar.

never seen it happen the way you describe it, and 2) according to
the rules of spotting, it is impossible to happen like that. Yeah
maybe with a dead commander and several bushes, but not 'in the
open' and with a live commander. Now, I fully understand
that things like lag and packetloss might interfere, and that
in-game ranges are often thought to be way shorter than they
actually are. I also can clearly see that you're a better player
than I am, so I am honestly curious as to what is happening to make
you make the claims that you make. Now, care to explain why
you're so opposed to posting a replay of it actually happening?
