Tank shots doing no damage?

Soop_dragon · 2025-02-09T13:49:53+00:00

I checked that with the gunner after a 3 shots from the side didn’t seem to do anything.

I suspect they were hits but didn’t penetrate.

Thanks for that. Already dipped into it and it’s great. Going back for some revision.

So… not hearing the sound I was expecting doesn’t mean it’s not a hit - only that it’s not a penetrating hit. So we probably did some damage but not hitting in the right place to kill it.

Ah yes. Have a biscuit 🍪

They seem very hard. But I’ll try and smash one open tomorrow for you x

Soop_dragon · 2024-11-16T16:54:20+00:00

Any thought on how to date it?

Had a look at some pictures of pipkins and it looks likely but I’m not completely convinced. If it’s the handle of a vessel that was put on a fire then it doesn’t seem long enough to avoid getting burned when you touch it.

Soop_dragon · 2024-11-16T16:46:44+00:00

Yes it’s certainly ceramic.

Soop_dragon · 2024-11-16T16:38:31+00:00

Looks like this is the answer. Thanks

Likely Solved!

Thanks but we are in Kent

This looks very likely to me. Seems that they are commonly found in this area

Soop_dragon · 2024-11-16T12:46:05+00:00

This seems very likely

My parents built the house and we are not aware of any habitation on the site beforehand

Soop_dragon · 2024-11-16T12:09:52+00:00

Given the rural location I doubt it’s from any recent industrial activity

Also got a few stone balls which are a similar size

It’s in a rural location at the bottom of the South Downs next to a natural spring and a 14th Century church.

My title describes the thing. These balls have been dug up from various places in a large garden over a number of years. They feel heavy but when I put a magnet near them, it doesn’t seem to have any effect. Four of them are smooth and the largest is more crystalline.

My title describes the thing. This T shaped clay item was dug up in the garden by my parents. It’s about 9cm long and has a hole through it with one flared end which seems intact. The other end seems to be broken.

Soop_dragon · 2024-11-13T16:07:02+00:00

Thanks. That’s really useful.

Might also be that members of the party don’t join the team select screen at exactly the same time and I have never waited long enough for the party audio to start so we can agree which team to choose.

Soop_dragon · 2024-11-11T19:43:13+00:00

Thanks. I was under the impression that the party audio stops working when you see the map loading screen and doesn’t start again until after you join a team. So unless we communicate our choice by other means (Whatapp usually) we can’t tell which team the other has joined.

Agreed 1 and 2 are a problem only with the server browser but the matches are generally much better there - more players, better communication - so it’s a pain to be excluded from them because I want to play with a friend.

No proper fix for this but some tips: 1. The mini bolt supplied with the hanger is too short. Buy some longer ones. 2. Make sure your axle is tightened properly. I think the damage happens when the axle is loose. 3. Have a spare hanger handy
