Panzerkeil Spec bugged... buffs defender!
Posted: Sun Dec 17, 2017 6:20 am
I decided to test the Panzerkeil specialization to see how much, if any, difference it makes. Tigers are the only German tank with Heavy Treading at this point in my campaign so I used 2 of them vs a T34 mod 40.
As you can see, I first moved one tiger next to the T34 and checked projected casualties: 4 0+

I move the second tiger and again check projected casualties with the same tiger as in step 1. The expected result would be either 4 0+ (no difference) or 4 0 (slight improvement) as Panzerkeil should raise the defense values of the tiger. But...

The projected casualties are now 3+ 0+. As in, either the attack value of the tiger has fallen or the defense value of the defender has increased. One suspects it is the latter and the panzerkeil bonus to defense is being incorrectly applied to the defending tank rather than the attacking tank. OOPS. Please to be fixing?
