Last I checked, those craters do influence the terrain. I don't know if you can fall in one, per se, but it does bog down your tracks at least.

Well this one was there for like 10 seconds or so and disapeared. Also my tank "hovered" in the air while driving over it.
So yeah.

Craters are real things that effect terrain, but i think that they dont affect cap circles.

Also, the germans had large quanities of towed rocket arty, they also had a trio of rocket armed halftracks and a variant of the tiger that fired massive rockets. Those big missiles on the german aircraft? Those are the same exact rockets as used in most of their gear. The germans dident really like rocket arty much.

There's kind of a big difference between rocket-armed halftracks and a tank with rockets attached. One has a chance of taking a hit and has a cannon to reply with.

Though, to be fair, we already have the SPAA, but they're sort of a unique case in the first place.

As for the rocket-firing Tiger variant, that's the Sturmtiger.

A few of the SPGs are also like that. Namely the ZIS and that new american thing...

I got into this for a friend... and that friend decided to immediately never play with me again because I was too many tiers behind him and "It wouldn't be fun for you" -_-

It is a fun game though.

I had no issue playing on the higher tiers with them even if I had a garbage tank.

Double helpings of shame. First for not lowering their tier, second for not letting you go with them even at massive disadvantages.

One of my friends refused to play at anything but his current tier of research.

Another friend, refused to let us play at his lower tier, and quit when we told him it wouldn't be any good for him to drive a Pz II in Tiger tiers.

Clearly it wasn't much of a friend then.

Though it is suicide to go into Tier III when you are new to the game and only have reserve planes/tanks.

You CAN make it with a Buffalo or a Yak or maybe a fully improved Lagg/He-112 A-0 but...

I've hit the 5.3 battle rating and it feels like every match is just filled full of focke wulf 190s and Bf 109s.
