obviously you didnt read what I said.....yes UNDER the tank is the sweet spot for nades versus tank...because there was little to no armor there

and if you think nades cant hurt a tank do us all a favor & take the time to look up the Battle of Budapest......molotov cocktails..homemade gas grenades were responsible for hundreds of tanks being destroyed

btw, dont bother saying they caused enough heat to cook off the ammo inside....the amount of gas in a bottle cant even heat up the layers of armor on the front & sides of a tank...as you are SO quick to point out, its THICK metal

but they can (and repeatedly DID) blow the tracks off leaving it helpless...and as I said in a prior thread, stopping the tank & leaving the gun intact would be a cool effect.........but I dont know how bad it would be to program it

now one fast lesson in explosions

#1 they blow UP..as someone said..lay down, the explosion will go over your head for the most part

#2 ANY explosive has greater force when compressed....say like having several tons of TANK parked on it...the tank being ON the grenade actually makes it stronger, due to the compression factor

#3 the armor under a tank is almost non-existant, this is why in the military ppl are taught to shoot as they crest hills & the belly is exposed

now add up the factors from #1, #2, and #3....can 3 or 4 nades take out a tank?

according to the US military, yes......take the time to LOOK IT UP...instead of spouting your Hollywood war film crap

personally Dick, if there has to be a change to nades, what you're saying sounds a lot better than what the various kiddys that want a super suit of armor that cant be stopped ....its called game balance, look into it huh?
