AAMGs question

Can an AAMG capable of being fired from under armor, for those tanks with such capability, be simulated by manipulating weapon size?

Some can.

It all depends on the size of Either warhead or weapon. If it's over 2 then it can be fired under armour. It's somewhere in one of the Documents.

Re: AAMGs question

It can't be 2, otherwise even the DShK on the T-55A with a weapon size value of 4 would have such capability.IIRC (not 100% sure) the threshold value is 5, but in the sense of 5 included or starting from 6? Are there others factors at play?

1) An AAMG will be unusable if the vehicle is closed down as it is assumed to be external. (Class 4 weapon with warhead less
than 2 is the split). Larger AAA (class 4) are no longer considered to be unusable if pinned.

That settles it. Heavy guns (as opposed to MGs) are either under armor, remote-piloted or full-size AA guns.

OTOH all class 19 weapons are supposed to be under armor, so use these for remote-controlled or under armor AAMGs from warhead size=1.
