not really useless, they work better i groups of 3, 1 at front, 2 at sides, fire unil the panzer exposes its thin sides and rear, esp. IIIb/d wich has weaker armor and is the most common for france '40, watch out for those czech(or whererever they came from) tanks.

@cross Do you know wjhat was the criteria of the inquiry mentioned at #11? because a 14mm round *could* blow some pistons off an engine, damage tracks, kill the driver/gunner and such damage wich would make the vehicle useless, after all, a KO can be described in several diferent ways, e.g an immobile tiger is a pillbox, as it takes a tiger to tow a tiger, making 2 vehicles unavaiable?
