« on: 10-02-2012, 20:02:19 »
During the scenario "El Alamein" i drove a Panzer IV F2 and, not far from the centre of the map, OH NO i'm dead and i read: L.Castillo [Daimler Dingo MkII]] ItalianTrooper (me).
Is it possible? a Daimler Dingo destroyed a Panzer IV F2 in one shot! ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

Pretty plausible I'd say.  The rear armour of the Pz IV makes paper look thick, so if he was close behind you he'd have almost certainly have done major damage.

It's not always the size that counts...  ;)

He was not behind me, he was in front of me but few meters to the left. Is this a Bug?

LuckyOne, that's true, it's not always the size that counts but Daimler Dingo has a small gun and destroy in one shot in front of a Panzer IV F2 i think that is not possible, maybe many Daimler Dingo can destroy a Panzer IV F2

Hm, either he hit your cupola then or the top of your Panzer IV, because as far as I can remember a Panzer IV needs 2 shots from the Daimler to kill it, even in the sides, or rear. The cupola and top armour are a special weakspot.
He got banned for our sins. He was not the member FH forums deserved, he was the member we needed.

One shot is possible. A hit in the turret side at short distances is usually a one shot. Else there would be only the possiblity to one shot you, if he hit you in the rear.

Just start the map as a local server and you can try things like these very easy.
