Default What to aim for on a Tank

I have read a few threads about people who are confused about rounds bouncing off the turret or shooting an enemy tank 6 times and not killing them. fortunately i have found an excellent guide for those who have not yet seen it on what to shoot for in each tank. it is located on a russian RO fansite just scroll to the bottom and each tank has its own image. hope this helps someone!

It's people like you who don't notice things like this that cause the oh-so lovable slapstick humour, for this I thank you. God rest Charlie Chaplin.

Look for a tank with the drivers hatch open. Put one round into the driver's face. It will go into the hatch and blow the tank up with one shot. It works everytime.

I just shoot the rear and engine compartment. Works pretty well considering I like to sneak to the rear of my enemies. It takes a long time for the driver and gunner to re-adjust to aim at me and then their rear is pointing at who they were firing at earlier.

For me if the hatch is open I machine gun there head off. And if if your not close enough to machine gun your prob not close enough to land a shot right in the hatch either. Ive gotten plenty of kills this way. That way I still have a round in the gun and dont have to wait to reload.

I don't see those on the media portion of this site. Where are they? Is there one for every tank or just those 8?

Remember this young grasshoppers: when engaging a Pz4 of any type, aim for the shovel on the side if you can because it is an instant hit on the ammo storage.

its just those eight (in the download section and there "art"), i think someone of the devs (iirc it was even wilson) said something about kicking some asses when he heard that there were still some sheets missing

Actually I'm in debt to this guy because I hadn't found out yet. This is greatly useful. Thanks to the Russian engineers for putting the ammo storages on nearly the same spot on every tank though it matters less when playing as Germans because you don't have an ATR.
