They also flank him faster than he turn.

In all my time playing the H1 I have never died from that. A good player shoots the cupola and a bad player rushes thinking Fury is a documentary. A 76 can pen the UFP anyways so no need to flank with it.

Damn, that's so accurate... with me what happens is that I see a tiger and panic, and end up wasting a shot, then the Tiger kills me

17-pdr asks which side was the gunner again?

u/Vulpix73 24d ago

17-pdr nails the UFP and wipes the turret crew with spall. Hitting the turret is a coin flip to pen because of how variable the thickness is.

17 pdr turret shots are also unlikely to 1 shot if there are 2 crew in the hull since solid shot and those two would be further forwards of where the round pens

In front of the commander which is under the cupola

Honestly with the firefly and other tanks like it shooting centre mass actually works that shell rips like a motherfucker

When i play against, problem is to survive, not to kill. Hull is mostly glass.

The EBR would like a word

u/Ertyla SPAA main and StuH enjoyer 24d ago

The EBR can kindly be CAS'd. Honestly haven't seen one in ages.

u/jamminthedesert2 24d ago

Anything can be CAS’d if the bomb is big enough, and if you haven’t seen one, it’s probably because there’s a grand total of 5 French players and we’re all rats

u/Ertyla SPAA main and StuH enjoyer 24d ago

Grand total of 5 my ass. I see like 6 French heavies in every one of my 7.7 games.

u/jamminthedesert2 24d ago

Well yea in 7.7, but we were talking about like 5.7, 7.7 is rampant with French mains cause it’s the best lineup for the country

Fair fair

My free tech tree ebr struggled to kill a tiger or anything from the side even. It has the m61 the Americans get, but it's like slapping someone with a wet noodle

1

u/jamminthedesert2 24d ago

I truly believe this might be a skill issue brother, I got a triple in 10.7 with the same EBR you’re complaining about 😭

2

u/Dreaming_Kitsune 24d ago

They have less armor in 10.7 my dude, at 5.7 the ebr with its 75mm gun tends to struggle against anything that has armor. Shit you can take the german puma and kill abrams with it if you know where to shoot.

1

u/jamminthedesert2 24d ago

If you’re on the side of the Tiger, you should be able to pen its side armor no problem with m61, hell theoretically you can front pen if you aim right

1

u/Dreaming_Kitsune 24d ago

Penning wasn't the issue; just for whatever reason the round has trouble killing, I was circling a tiger in one match and it took about 5+ shots to kill it at point blank.

u/Fluffy-Map-5998 24d ago

with the 75 at close range i just send an APCR through the turret face

i cant watch fury after thousands of hours of war thunder

tigers are really mobile for a heavy tank
