as long as you drive away from them they don't hit you

i think really nasty are these 6 men commando squads with piats smoke and nades

even when they are 10 mun more expensive then normal piats they are much better on them

yeah you got to to take into account the piat projectile travels much slower so its unlikely to hit anything thats moving away from the piat.
but piats again can shoot trough stuff.

overall I would  say piat > schreck.
piat can move into range, stay behind cover yet shoot a volley, have chance to do a lot of dmg(like half of the P4s hp?) and back off again unharmed.
with schreck u move into range, you shoot and have chance to do damage(like 1/5th of sherman hp?), lose 2 guys of gren squad due to allied tank shooting you, and back off.

You also need to take into account that CW have vehicle disablers that are mobile and dual purpose.

PIAT > Shreck by any means.

Because a forum post should be like a woman's skirt. Long enough to cover the subject material, but short enough to keep things interesting.

You do have those odd moments though where the piat seems to have a sniper scope on it.

This is where it gets interesting.

If something rolls a "hit" then it homes in.

PIAT can fire over hedges and buildings... this must be taken into account.

More importantly, if you roll a "hit" both weapons are likely to hit their target short of something odd. This is where you get those heat seeking tank shells etc.

I see no problem with this, if it's a hit according to game mechanics,  it should be a hit.

It's not a problem, but it does negate the "well, if you move they miss"; only shots that rolled a miss will miss.

PIATs are a balistic artillery shell.

Meaning if they roll a "hit" they merely are guaranteed to hit the exact centre of the area they're targetting Smiley.

They do not "magic home" like bazookas or tank shells do.

Agreed with Mys, it's an arty shell balistic type, I can dodge all I want and still not get hit, they don't home like say a bazooka round or sticky bomb.  That's why having more accuracy is usually BAD for a piat because sometimes you want it to scatter to hit a moving vehicle.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead. -- RFC 1925

Do note that PIATs are Rich man's Riflenades. They are awsome at gibbing infantry
