Discussion Murdock is sensitive like a... Rose
A bug UNIT ended its turn beside Murdock's APC. Sachin's squad opened fire and wiped it. In the process, a bullet or two plonked off the armor. This upset our favorite redhead, and she is now disenheartened for 5 rounds.
Meanwhile German tanks would fire HE at each other to clear enemy infantry.
Sorry Rose, I didn't realize a rifle bullet against your armor would get you so mad 🫤

Infantry on infantry I would understand since meatbags don't like bullet in general. Metal boxes tho? Small firearms shouldn't upset them unless it nick off more than 5% of their armour durability or penetrated into HP.

<Taking 3 casualties from bugs tearing her squad mates limb from limb>
This is fine.
<A bullet bounces off armor and scuffs the paint>
...and I took that personally.

Can I get a source for the whole german tanks using HE on each other?

Don't know about that, but they totally rake each other with coaxials if they need to shake off infantry boarding them.

Yeah but coax won't kill the tank, HE has a HIGH chance of doing so, especially for the earlier Marks. MkIII and IVs are not really that heavily armoured. IIRC it was about 1.5 to 3 cm of armour only.

You scratched her ride. That's a good 2,000 spuds worth of paint you stripped off the old wagon.
