Can one of you stat gurus tell me how a Vet 2 marder is able to survive a direct hit from a lancaster bomb ?
Ray will attest to this or short of that i can post a replay of it happening.

Short of it, bomb landed less then 2m from the Marder who survived with <5% hp and a destroyed main gun crit.

i might can answer without checking the RGDs

if HP fall under 5% then there is a Crit roll. Well this roll can be "out of control" "make wreck" and "maingun destroyed" its pretty similar to any other gunhit.

V1 and lancaster should have a 100% killcrit. It just seems...retarded for something to survive that blast, especially an open topped marder rofl

It did do a crit. You were unlucky that it critted the weapon rather than killed the unit.

looking into the RGD's it has a damage multiplier for most vechs of 2, and curiously some are 1.
The marder is one of such vechs to have a 1x dmg multiplier.


Even still it should have a 100% crit ratio.

Lancaster landed dead center on my open topped marder, destroyed gun, rolled away like a boss.

You know, the Marder has always been a finicky little shitbag.

It always seems to get a destroyed gun rather than death at 5%, and last time I checked it's criticals were the same as everything else...

Yeah, armour criticals.

But anyhow, the V1/Lanc has a 20% chance to destroy maingun rather than make wreck/out of control vehicles (40% for each of those making 80% chance to destroy).

Beats me why that crit even exists though.

i should report that ray repaired his marder
it then got more kills, another destroyed gun and pulled off.

The CoH engine is a fickle mistress, kinda to none cruel to all.
