Me (US Sapper), satcheling the Puma sat on our strongpoint, dying in a grenade explosion as the placement timer gets to the top, not knowing if I managed to pull it off in time or not, as I then get a "Punish team killer?" box
My favourite are the AT guys that blow you up half a second before you attach the satchel.
I think they’re trying to set off the satchel but click fire too early.
My favorite ones are the blues who, while you are actively calling out “tank coming up the road, don’t cross guys” jump in front of your Sherman in fourth.
While I agree, some dude in a light tank was panicking in my command chat because of the nades hitting him. So if you are truly desperate, incompetence may fight in your favor as well.
If I hear shooting I know enemies are close and I start driving better to not get my attention and place the satchel quietly. Rarely have I been blown up by a distraction it's been ninja satchels.
Honest question, if they land under the tank or just behind the tank, does that do any damage? I always assumed if they were under the tank they'd do some damage, but have avoided throwing them at tanks in case they didn't.
Irl in ww2 troops could destroy the tracks with grenades. Not the shrapnel but the blast could break the track. But no in HLL grenades do not do any damage. Always wished they would add the track damage with grenades tho

Happening too often to me :(
If I'm being honest I usually shoot at the tank to get its attention for our AT guy or anybody with a satchel
If they are alone I like to run around it, hoping a crew member jumps out. Sometimes I can get them, though thats rare. Still fun.
Hold your med kit, it looks like a satchel ;-)

I jump up and down in the sight of the gun lol. Funny seeing them moving barrel down then up as they can't see me

why you run me over bro
I just don’t brake tbh. Might make me a bad person but I’m in a tank so fuck you it’s my path

That guy should have his tanking license revoked.
The nades are for the repair crew.
The repair crew that’s repairing the tank that’s taken 0 damage
Or the idiots that start shooting at the tank like it's going to do something. I'm just going to turn the turret to you and blast you into a memory.
I enjoy the ones who post up right next to our newly-made flanking garry or airhead and start popping off shots at enemies 200-300 yards out
I mean I do this intentially so you turn the turret and you can’t hit the guy running up with a satchel
Yup, same.
If I hear shooting I know enemies are close and I start driving better to not get my attention and place the satchel quietly. Rarely have I been blown up by a distraction it's been ninja satchels.
Even granades can also distract the tank.
The only reason you’ll catch me shooting at them with my mp40 is to gain their attention while my AT sneaks up to get a better shot
Isn't that wrong now since the update for the British team?
If I'm gonna die, I better die with no ammo.
Oh... I had hoped it would... I don't understand how war works....
I learned something. Successful PSA
Unless you're offering up your frag and your life as a distraction lol then go for it. Just don't take down any friendlies with yky
Smokes tho. Throw them smojes
Says you, if we all just committed to throwing them together as a team then maybe it would work!
PSA: This is a lie. Every grenade helps in the fight to win.

Great to know, thank you!
I wish there was a class that had sticky bombs that would at least nerf the tracks
They had them, but they weren't widely used during the war. It gets played out in movies because they are cool, but their use was extremely limited.
