4 tanks (3 in effect, one is out of place and should not be in that game) getting pinned down by a single STOCK (well, half stock actually) tank??? Seriously? And they can't even kill a fried tank...

I say this over and over in my heavies when mediums are peekabooing out from behind ME against a n enemy tank.

With all the assbiters posting on this forum, you would think they would have perfected flanking to an art form by now.  I like the post above how they use you as cover
That's OK until they ass jam you so you can't back up into cover.

I like this one...I don't have the replay. But mines south side. I Rush up the hill and hide behind the rock and track whatever tries to go up the hill, to be shot by the support be hind me. I look I have 3 heavies trying to squeeze in beside me on the same damn rock. Lmfao really. That was the Tardcon 1 fail sauce right there.

Sadly, it's the heavy drivers thinking that playing peakaboo is enough engagement for the mediums from what I see.

Thank you for this post.  I agree with you 100%.

If you are in a tank that is by role, a flanker, then flank for God's sake.  Too many times I've seen meds or lights trying to push where heavy tanks go.  And too many times I've seen heavy tanks try to act like meds or lights.

Its ridiculous.  I don't care if I'm a T9.  If I'm in my IS-8, I'm flanking.  And that just is what it is.  Sometimes I rock.  Sometimes I fail.

But I am NOT going toe to toe with a Maus in tank alley on Himmelsdorf.  Not happening.

Tell me about it. Was on Sand River on the North with 1 other heavy and the two of us managed to hold off SIX mediums ranging from a BatChat to AMX13/90s. I asked why they didnt just flank around us, the excuse: "Your heavies so wont stand a chance" :facepalmic:  Im sure flanking is such of a foreign concept that majority of players don nut comprehend how to flank.
