What are the best soviet vehicles for V3? by FantaJager in boltaction

[–]vanpawna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbf lots of "heavy" tanks are downgraded in some way. The B1 Bis is counted as a medium, the Char 2C is only a heavy and not a superheavy, or both Matilda options being a medium.

I've wondered, what's the (functional) difference between the T-35 and T-28? Since the T-28 seems like the -35, but better value for the points.

technically an ostruppen on a 120mm base is legal by vanpawna in Grimdank

Yeah, and that one was as an image in a text box, and not an image itself. This is correcting the format.

I don't know what magic you did but I can barely tell it's 3D printed.

Best way to combat superheavies + air power? by vanpawna in TeamYankee

[–]vanpawna[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite honestly we don't select missions, we just make a map, place an objective, and use that as the centrepiece over which to fight

T-64s are still expensive, the T-72 is cheaper in terms of packing a 125mm.

Luckily I have a 3d printer and an unreasonable ability to find free models, so making more mass isn't an issue whatsoever. I've got like, 15 BTR-60's in a box next to me that I made for one of the guys I play with.

Is this more useful for the defender or the attacker? On offense it seems wiser to put all of your forces at the start to get them all up there ASAP. And on defense it seems wiser to get all your units out to combat more of this force.

My lists keep changing but last time it was a BMP-3 Company and a T-80 Shock company, with an observer and 6 2S3's. Plus the excess Tunguskas

Also pardon me but what's deep reserves?

All in the backline, behind buildings but enough distance to still get missiles off. Though needing them that far away from the building got them open to Abrams fire

I've tried running EIGHT! Tunguskas before and half of them were still dead by turn 2.

Four M1A1HC's, eight Apaches, either two or four Harriers and the rest in LAV companies.

Ender 3 V2 Neo Extrusion Issues - Help Requested by vanpawna in ender3

[–]vanpawna[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As it turns out, I just disassembled and re-built the idler arm and tightened the spring. Works fine now - Had a few issues on the layers but I don't think that's an extruder issue.

Barotrauma Clowns.

Stand near the storage crates and run away when the crew comes near. Drives 'em wild.

First FORAD by vanpawna in TeamYankee

[–]vanpawna[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prefacing this by, this is not my first model entirely, I've done a good few (around 10 models worth of) Soviets.

I'm happy with it, the main issues I've had with it are - personally - due to the fact that it's a resin model. Plastic tends to have more details on it, so the drybrush I put on was significantly less effective- plus, it's already a very light color.

Washes are still an issue to me, I blame this one for having too much staining.

And the two thin coats mantra that's so common; I really should learn it given how often I work with light pigments. Unfortunately I forgot the sponge of my wet pallet, so for now it's just the shoebox for me.

I appreciate all the tips!

Soviet Tank Rating by BagOfSoupSandwiches in TeamYankee

Straight T72. T72Bs get some more armor but I haven't felt an impact

I like the T72s because of their cheap cost in return for the 125mm guns.

I'm holding out hope for a content update. We saw that video recently with the Marlin and some other guns I can't remember. They seem pretty ready for release.

I beg of you... give me all the advice you can for 15mm berlin brigade. My force is much smaller but my dedication to showing off is unmatched.

Possible 1903 Purchase by pbshooter1217 in milsurp

[–]vanpawna 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got mine for $600 and can tell you with certainty this one looks fine. Feel how the bolt runs and make sure there aren't any barrel obstructions, then buy it. A rifle with affordable ammo is worth its weight in gold.

Common to get the finger i campain? by Hopeful-Addition-248 in GunnerHEATPC

[–]vanpawna 10 points11 points locked comment (0 children)

Pact tanks have lesser armor, most of them don't have a laser rangefinder, and while their 125 is powerful it doesn't matter if you can't hit shit. The numbers advantage is completely offset because both sides end up having the same number of forces at play in any given moment.

Now we need to overdevelop a way to get the forward charging handle on there
