Default vehicle details

Hi

Just bought the game, and im having a blast I im just wondering aout one thing.

Does anybody know if there is a way to find out more details about the armour/weapons of the vehicles in the game. A men of war encyclopedia would be awsome, but i a simple text file would also help a lot.

it would for example be nice to know exactly what the ingame panthers side armour was.

Thanks Kane. A bit rough, but it gives the info we need. (I should have searched better)

Mabye we will get a official unit/vehicle viewer later...Fingers crossed.( where you can see the 3d model and point at differnt parts of the tank to se armourthicknes)

I would not depend so much on realistic unit describtions but more go with what the game tells and shows.

Without to criticise the game, but for example certain guns and tanks have either to strong or to weak characteristics and thus dont match that well with the real units.

Since the game and its values are realistic, search for real statistics of the vehicles so your not overviewing it real quick when your team is getting torn to shreds

they are NOT realistic. They just mimic realistic numbers and tables. Thats all. If the numbers would be really realistic the Tiger should have no issue to destroy the T34 of sherman even on max distance. Yet in MoW it does sometimes. Hell even the Panzer IV for example could crack the hull of the T34/85 from almost 2000m in any direction. In MoW you will see quite some richochets. Its obvious that some tweaks have been done for the sake of gameplay (I doubt most allied nations would have a nice day with realistic penetration numbers and ranges). The game might show some great details and a somewhat a complex damage model. But I dont think its fair to call it realistic as I think the word realistic should be more left to games trying to be a simulation. And MoW is not a simulation.

Well, the game passes my standards. Granted its a little silly here and there but so what, it has explosions and blood splatter what more could one ask for?

The Tiger could get worked on but I took 3 Jagdpanzers and a Hetzer against a T34. 75mm could penetrate and a 88mm couldn't from the front. The 88mm bounced off like a 5mm bullet, and the 75mm went all the way back to the engine from the front blowing up the T34. So yeah its silly, but as long as I win and the game is realistic in most places I'm happy. Don't forget the turret that got blown off and knocked out a jeep.
