Girls und Panzer: Ride the Tiger (OOC, CLOSED)

[West Suburbia]

I think you can have mixed....... and no experience to Sensha-do prior to this.

Yes, I will start them off wondering what a steering tiller does

I just realized something else... all vehicles have to be fully enclosed, so that normally eliminates most Self-Propelled Artillery, but vehicles like the SU-122, SU-152, ISU-152, StuH 42, and Bishop SPG would not be disqualified. So I wonder how they would take into account the effectiveness of large-caliber HE rounds or artillery rounds during a Sensha-do match, because getting slapped by a 152mm HE shell from an ISU is bound to leave a mark.

Well, if the 152mm Shell hit, let's say a Panzer IV, that would be knocked out. If it hit a Tiger I at the side, it would knock it out so.......

Plus I think for howitzer armed vehicles, HEAT rounds are better simulated.... Not sure.

Well. An ISU-152 hitting a tiger from the front would knock it out as well. Especially if it fired Concrete Core rounds that it did. Anyways, the beauty of howitzers...

Not sure about that since there limitation on what type of ammunition can be used by tanks in sensha-do.

Good luck......

You could do what the freshmen team did... post a question on an internet message board

Well, even with HE. It would either ruin the viewports or the guns and daze the crew pretty badly.

Or you could have them be like the Anteater team, base them off World of Tanks.

I'm thinking about switching to the AC series of tanks, the only Australian tanks produced in significant numbers during WWII.

Starts out as the AC I Sentinel with a 2-pdr/40mm gun.
Then becomes the AC III Thunderbolt with a 25-pdr/87mm gun.
There's a prototype for testing the tank's ability to handle the 17-pdr's recoil mounting TWIN 25-pdrs.
Then finally is the AC IV with a 17-pdr/76.2mm gun.

Weight: 28 long tons (28.4 tonnes)
Hull Front: 65mm (2.6 inches) @ approx 45-46 degrees w/ a rounded nose
Hull Sides and Rear: 45mm (1.8 inches) @ 0 degrees
Turret All Round: : 65mm (2.6 inches) @ 0 degrees front and rear, approx 45-46 degrees sides
Engine: x3 Cadillac V8 with 330hp (246kW) total
Top Speed: 30 mph (48km/h)
(Similar stats for all versions)

The chassis and hull remains the same,the only which got changed from each design was the gun and its mounting to the turret. Though the armor does seem rather thick for a starter tank.

Team name: White Eagle
Tank: 7TP jednowieżowy (single turreted variant)

Commander
Name: Christina Janowski

Age: 17

Appearance:

Favorite flower: Zinnia

Favorite tank: Challenger II

Personality: Talkative, somewhat friendly, and mindlessly cruel to insects, Christina fares poorly under pressure and is very sensitive to insults, taking each one personally. She is afraid of failing a group effort and disappointing others, and you can now call her a try-hard, because she is one.

Bio: Born in the small town of Janow in Poland, Christina was the daughter of her father and one of his girlfriends. As a child, she hated her domineering mother and constantly disobeyed her, playing tricks on her or dumping her perfume down the toilet. Her father eventually divorced, and unwilling to stay with her mother, Christina smuggled herself on the moving van as her father moved out to Warsaw. Once her father found her hidden inside a box (she was 15 at the time), he threatened to send her back to Janow. But as the court awarded custody of Christina to her father, her father decided the best way to get rid of her was to send her off to some far off boarding school. So Christina was shipped to Reivers. After a year at the school, Christina signed up for Sensha-Do after watching the orientation video and getting excited over it.

Gunner
Name: Svetlana Kozlov

Age: 17

Appearance:

Favorite flower: Chrysanthemum

Favorite tank: T-54 Mod. 1949

Personality: Logical, hardworking, outgoing, and loving, Svetlana is a team player when necessary and she just can't say no. She is also highly methodical, sticking to the tried and true. She is also loyal to her teammates and cares about them. She enjoys roughhousing and having a fun time.

Bio: A foreign exchange student from Ukraine, Svetlana previously has no experience with Sensha-do. The moment she saw it, she derided it as stupid and unnecessary. However, while choosing her electives, she inadvertently picked Sensha-do and got sorted into it. After countess trips to the school counselor, she gave up and decided to just do it. Bumping into Christina one day, she agreed to join her team as a gunner. She is irritated by Lian's lack of interaction with others and by Christina being a try hard.

Driver
Name: Lian Lee

Age: 16

Appearance:

Favorite flower: Peony

Favorite tank: M60A1 Patton

Personality: Very quiet, humble, unassuming, and borderline shy, Lian often spends hours sitting by herself with her only friends, a sketchpad and some colored pencils. She is also very studious and will often read books bigger then her. When people are around, she pretends to be invisible and ignore everyone.

Bio: Born in Shanghai to an American businessman and a Chinese laundry worker, Lian spent most of her childhood with her mother, growing very attached to her. Lain's father was away 90% of the time on overseas business trips. However, when she turned 13, her mother was diagnosed with terminal kidney cancer. As her mother grew weaker by each day, Lian quit school to help out in the house and take care of her mother. Sadly, her mother passed away 4 months after she was diagnosed. Her world crashing down, Lian spent a good part of 3 days sobbing and throwing stuff around. At the funeral, her father showed up, with a new wife. Outraged and disgusted, Lian cursed him out and ran out of the church service, sobbing as she went. She would never forgive her father for betraying her and her mother. Ending up at Reivers, she was often seen sitting in the corner and eating lunch by herself and walking away with her head bent down. Christina recruited her as the driver after some difficulty, which Lian accepted since she liked Christina's willingness to even talk to her.

((Might add 2 more characters since I will probably upgrade to a new, better, and bigger tank. Those characters will for now be mechanics or something like that))

You could use an AT-1 or an SU-5 maybe?

I like the AT-1. Thanks for the suggestion Ulv.

I like WoT.

[Romus Maximus]

I like WoT.

Sadly I cannot play it. My computer is my school laptop and they blocked my admin And they blocked the way I got it. And about fifty other ways I could get it. Now the only way I know of is to already have admin.

[Ulvenes]

I play it on the 360.

[Rynagria]

I kinda find War Thunder: Ground Forces to be more appealing now, since you can actually kill tanks in a single shot from a penetration.

[Perestroikavo]

PC master race. Its funny Ulv, you and I are like direct opposites. We offset eachother. Interesting.

I actually have it for the PC and played one game.. But the controls are so alien that I can't get used to it.

Love my E-75 though.

Huh. I enjoyed mine, but I didn't ever over it. I prefer my speedy heavy ST-I.

[Romus Maximus]

See, I'm PS3 so I don't get WoT or WT:T which in my opinion is a real dick move by Sony to not give WT and WT:T to the PS3.
