Armor penetration values

[CaptRio]

Hey guys,

How can I know the armor penetration values of the diferent types of cannons available ingame? Like in SPWAW where we can easily identify the penetration values based on diferent kinds of distance.

And why does my polish A0 unit can call artillery faster (1.4) than my FO unit (3.4) ???

Thanks in advance.

1) Weapons encyclopaedia

2) Perhaps better experience rating?

Remember the pen values are for 1 hex range. AP and APCR pen values will decrease with range. And with that you´ll just have to experiment.

Let me try to explain:

In SPWAW we can easily id the penetrations values in the vehicle information screen as:

(distance in hexes)
1 (hex) - 60 (penetration) / 10 - 52 / 20 -43


And in winSPWW2:

ACC / KILL / PEN / HEAT / APCR / RANGE / WARHEAD
14 / 11:00 / 3:18 / 0 / 18 / 70:70 / 5

I'd like to know How to read those values, cause they dont say too much for me.

ACC / KILL / PEN / HEAT / APCR / RANGE / WARHEAD
14 / 11:00 / 3:18 / 0 / 18 / 70:70 / 5

accuracy of the weapon is 14

The HE kill value is 11 ( first number ), AP kill is zero(second number )

Pentration for HE is 3 cm and for AP it's 18 cm

Heat has zero penetration so no heat ammo for that weapon

apcr is sabot and sabot for this weapon has an 18 pen

Range for both He and AP is 70 ( first number) and sabot is also 70 ( second number )

warhead is 5

As Andy says, more detailed info is found in the "Encyclopaedia Screen" link of the Game Guide and scroll down to the "weapon" block.
