So ever wanted to know exactly how many Konkurs your tank can take? How low do you need to go with KE cannons to effectively stomp on light vehicles? It's all here! Enjoy

Brilliant, much appreciated.

Vasily! How do you read your chart?

Armor 10 AMX32 is hit by KE AP18 (AMX32 also^^)

Answer is 5.0

Well that's the meaning of life.^^ Does it mean it takes 5 life points away? Or?

Thank you for your answer!

[Vasily Krysov]

That is correct. For the KE/HEAT charts they are the damage per hit. So for the AMX 32 as per your example, it takes 5 HP of damage.

The HE chart is how much damage is done per unit of HE.

So for example, an armor 6 unit being hit with 10HE will take one point of damage (.1*10 = 1HP)

Do remember that the damage is still directional and it depends on where the shot lands even for HE.

I would add that there can be small differences experienced in the game regarding HEAT damage but in general the chart is right. HEAT damage formula is some kind of witchcraft...

[Vasily Krysov]

If there is a specific example of the HEAT damage being off please tell me. This chart was ripped from the game files themselves, so I'd be surprised if there's a fault with them.

When I was performing some tests in game some fagot hits dealt 2 damage to M1A1 Abrams (AP 11 vs AV17). Like I said, witchcraft .
Regarding the table:
Do small arms really deal 0 damage to infantry in buildings?

[Vasily Krysov]

Buildings = the base buildings from RUSE. It's an obsolete value

[Vasily Krysov]

Thanks for sticky BTR!

Stupid question : what's a light vehicle exactly ?

Otherwise : BRILLIANT !
