Tankery (1/8) Season 1 Match 1 Turn 4: Atlas vs. Shiels
« on: September 10, 2013, 03:25:31 pm »

Hello there, well after watching Girls und Panzer (it turned into a kind of guilty pleasure into for me) i came up with this retarded madcap good glorious idea to turn it into a Forumgame.

The Basic Idea is that the Players will control different Schools taking Part in the World Championship of the newly Sanctioned Sport of Tankery.

For those uninitiated, in the Girls und Panzer Universe, Driving Tanks has turned into a Martial Art, which is mostly enacted by School Children. IF we ignore the obvious "WTF is wrong in that Universe?" Mindtracks, its actually pretty cool.

The Idea is that two opposing teams of Tanks shoot the shit out of each other and try to immobilize the Enemy Command Tank. The Command tank is randomly chosen from the team.
Anyhow 8 Players will duke it out against each other in such battles. For Victories they gain Points which they can invest in New Tanks, better Training Facilities and if they want even in Tank Crews.

The whole Tournament works on the K.O. System. The Finaly Victor will gain another 5000 Points and we start into a New Season. For which each team gets 2000 Points.

To spare my Sanity you will have access only to tanks of the Second World War.

Each School starts out with 1000 Points it can invest into tanks, training facilities and Special Crews.

Now however we come to a problem. I found nowhere some kind of Software to properly make Tactical Maps of ongoing Matches. If somebody could help me out there i would highly appreciate it, otherwise i will use the in this case the pretty unspectacular Hexographer. the actually pretty good Panzer game(in tandem with Vassal), although it includes only German, Czechoslowakian, American, British and Russian Tanks and thus i will have to improvise the tanks of other Nations.

A note at the End: I am no specialist on tanks i just go with the Stats given to me by Wikipedia and work these into Game Stats. If you find wrong data, feel free to pm me.

Tanks
German Models

Panzer II Ausf. Luchs
The German Model, it was the Main Battle Tank during the Poland and France Invasion during the Second World War. Laughable Thin Plating and a 2cm Flak-Cannon as Main Gun, makes the Panzer II pretty weak chested. However his Reliability, his relatively small size and its Speed and manouverability makes it a Good Scout Tank and perfect for City Fights.

Points: 75
Speed: 6
Manouverability: 75,2
Front: 30mm
Sides: 20mm
Back: 20mm
Ground: 10mm
Top: 13mm
Main Gun: KwK 38 (2cm)
Penetration: (20mm/15mm/9mm/-)
Range: 150km


Panzer 38(t)
A Czechoslowakian Model, it is cheap, it is reliable and fast. Its a Light(or very light Tank, depending on who you ask).

Points: 100
Speed: 4,5
Manouverability: 55,5
Front: 25mm
Sides: 15mm
Back: 15mm
Ground: 8mm
Top: 10mm
Main Gun: KwK 38 (3,7cm)
Penetration: (36mm/31mm/24mm/22mm)
Range: 250km

Quirks:
Plating is riveted. In case of a hit there is a chance that crewmembers get injured even without a penetrating hit.
Has an Indirect Fire Mode.


Panzer III Ausf. L
The Panzer III is mostly known as basic chassis for the far more successfull StuG III. Anyhow jus tbecause the StuG was far more successfull it should not be neglected.

Especially Ausführung L was build with the Long KwK 39 (5cm) which was semi sucessfull in penetrating Armor. As Medium Tank the Panzer III however can't compare with the Superior Panzer IV.

Points: 200
Speed: 4
Manouverability: 53,5
Front: 50mm + 20mm (a second plating in front of the frontal plating)
Sides: 30mm
Back: 50mm
Ground: 30mm
Top: 10mm
Main Gun: KwK 39 (5cm)
Penetration: (69mm/59mm/37mm/-)
Range: 175km (road) /100km (offroad)


StuG III
The Sturmgeschütz was cheaper, smaller, better plated and easier to produce than the Panzer III. Its gun was superior and coudl be used for artillery and breaking bunkers. But it was not as manouverable and the whole tank had to be turned around to aim at something.

Points: 300
Speed: 4
Manouverability: 52,6
Front: 80mm
Sides: 30mm
Back: 50mm
Ground: 15mm
Top: 15mm
Main Gun: StuK 40 (7,5cm)
Penetration: GrPa. 38 HL/C (120 mm/110 mm/100 mm/-),PzGr. 39 (106 mm/98 mm/91 mm/-)
Range: 155km (road)

Quirks:
GrPa. 38: A Heavy Shell. the Granatpatrone 38 is able to pierce pretty thick armour even at vast distances. Sadly ou only have 5 of those per Match.

Panzer IV Ausf. H
After the Tiger, the Panzer IV is along with the StuG one of the most famous and important German Tanks. As a Medium Tank he is superior to the T-34 Mod.43, the Sherman M4A3 and the Valentine Mk.X. On top of that with 8500 build Tanks it is the most produced German Tank.

Points: 300
Speed: 4
Manouverability: 52
Front: 80mm
Sides: 30mm
Back: 20mm
Ground: 10mm
Top: 20mm
Main Gun: KwK 40 (7,5cm)
Penetration: (98mm/90mm/82mm/-)
Range: 200km (road) /150km (offroad)

Quirks:
Plate Skirts - It is harder to shoot off the Panzer IV's tracks.
Thin Tracks - Due to it's thin tracks the Panzer IV has the problem that sometimes the tracks jump off in particular impassable surroundings.


Soviet Models

Front: 22mm
Sides: 6mm
Back: 6mm
Ground: 6mm

Quirks:
Unreliable: BT-8 Tanks were known to have many malfunctions

Quirks:
Overcrewed: You need two Tank Crews to man the damn thing
The Many-Headed Hydra: Due to it's size, crew and many-headedness making a T-35 immobile is quite the task.
I don't want to make my tracks dirty!: Due to the sheer weight of the t-35 and the (in comparison) small engine its impossible to mvoe it offroads without causing some major problems for the vehicle.


T-28
The T-28 is a Medium Tank, with 3 towers and a Crew of 6 it is the small brother of the T-35 although significantly more useful.

Front: 45mm
Sides: 45mm

Speed: 4,7
Manouverability: 64
Front: 45mm
Sides: 14mm
Back: 14mm
Ground: 20mm

If you're willing to use ASCII, there's REXPAINT. You can find it in the creative section of the forum.

Okay that's all tanks for today. Tomorrow i add more but im just tired as hell. The German Models are finished by the Way, you have to win a few matches before new ones get available and are actually feasible for you to buy costwise...

Indeed you can mix tanks as you wish. Although staying with a specific nationality will give you bonuses over time.
