Okay, so we were playing on that snowy map with the two big bridges as the germans and I was driving a PnZ IV towards the left side bridge whena big ole t-34 comes rolling across. My gunner fired and it bounced off the turret, then the T-34 returned fire and missed. I had a tough choice, I knew that t34 could outclass our tank so I made my choice. The t34 was moving on side angle to us so I throttled up and moved into ramming position. I hit it dead center with the panzer 4 and actually flipped it on its side! I was so impressed. Thanks Tripwire for a great game.

no its possible, he was on a slope to the side, so he was off center. Wouldnt be that hard IRL to pull off.

You'd just have to be suicidal. ;) (and probably deaf afterwards..that's gotta be one hell of a clang)

Imagined he was on level ground. Even if it was a slope, the tank should only slide down the slope if anything, not totally flip over. But maybe I am just talking out of my ass and it is possible. :D

gosh ...

gosh ...

Considering the slow speeds and weight of the tanks it should not be possible :p

But the crash would bang the crew up badly, maybe even knocking em out...
But when the tanks crashes they have a tendensy to bounce really stupid :p

My PzVI was once flipped over by a Clown Car.

Thanks Tripwire for a great game!

There is a genuine photo in 'The Island of Fire' of a BA-10 armoured car (like the one below) which had been hit in such a way that it had flipped onto its ass with the radiator grill pointing skywards.

I can imagine the German gunner who did that saying, "WTF!! How many points do I get for that?"

In a friendly once grinch in a su76 rammed at panther (being outgunned) i happened to spin my turret to the position just in time to shoot the bugger in the under belly thus killing it :D

I have seen a picture of a Tiger tank, by the side of the road, lying on it's left hand side, but I can't find it at the moment to post it.
Will keep looking though.
