I just killed an 88 10 seconds after it was made.  Simply rush some fodder towards it to distract it, then hit it with an AT gun.  takes about 4 seconds to kill one.

88 prioritizes AT gun over "fodder" and kills it in two hits.
AT gunning an 88 only works when the guy is a moron and doesnt scout.

[brn4meplz]

even if the guy doesn't scout your ATG will appear after firing 1 shot and the 88 can fire  2 and your dead.

[Mysthalin]

remember it costs 450mp and 220fu. more than and panzer, half of a panther.

A panzer IV costs 265 FU, afaik, so yeah...
The IST plain sucks so it shouldn't be counted into any balance argument ;P.

or to finish it off if its low on health.

Any way, As axis player i lost 10 games in row, now when playing allies i have so far won 3 games and 1 draw (axis dropped made it draw...)

While we are at it, Why dose it seem that a Pak38 when in clock and fires at a allied at gun its missed more than when a Allied At gun firers at the Pak 38?

The flak88 sould get repair kit, due its more in the front than the howie is.

Its more easy to kill Flak88 than an Howie

you're more often to decrew an 88 than kill it. It takes a lot of artillery shots to finally kill the thing, and its armor is a lot stronger than the howies. the howie's gun has i think the same health as the at gun, maybe a lil more, takes 2-3 schreck shots to take it out and one hummel shot. I just played a game against 2 88's and it took half the game to finally get rid of them.

88 decrewed, time to move up an atg, finish it.

[Mukip]

Acually I'm not sure if it's possible to shoot a decrewed Flak 88 with an At gun, I tried to but the "attack ground" command wouldn't work on it.

[Akranadas]

Use the attack move command, it'll change the cursor to a target; that'll allow the atg to attack the decrewed weapon

lol yea, my 88 vet 2 was decrewed before it could shoot nething, i just recrewed it with some greens n they did the job, untilthey got decrewed so i had to bring up another crew.. which was decrewed... say 4 times eh lol

[Malevolence]

Flak 88 loves to get decrewed. Especially if there's a sniper on the field. I got my Flak 88 decrewed 3 times in my last game with AmPm on Church before it finally got nailed by an AT gun.
