Simply back down the hill while reloading. This is your best friend on the battlefield. The dials and markings along the outside are superfluous. The small center triangle is all you need to aim well. This simple advice will get you started on the battlefield… Using this method, you should be able to zero in on almost any tank at any range by the second shot. There are some maps which are small enough (or foggy enough) that if you can see a tank, you can just point and click wherever the top of the triangle is sitting (making range pretty much useless). If the tank is close in, put the top of the triangle exactly where you want to place the round. If the enemy is in medium range, put the top point of the triangle just a bit above the enemy. If the enemy is on the distant horizon, put the triangle entirely above the target with the bottom sitting just above it and your shot will be pretty close.
Using the triangle in the Tiger tank is the easiest way to explain this. Instead, it is much easier to use the marks on the “crosshairs” of the gun sights based on how near I think the enemy is sitting. However, I never use this feature because it is impossible to ascertain distance when you are looking at a 2d computer monitor without a true 3rd dimension. Most of the time your only threat is other tanks – so get out there and look around! In an attempt to fully model the sights of the gun, you can adjust the range values for distance (Q and E keys) so you can aim more accurately (in theory). You can turn your turret while you are on top so there is no benefit (unless you are under threat of snipers) to staying buttoned up. This is often the quickest method to cover the whole battleground and find viable targets. The hull machine gunner is simply chrome, and has little practical or “fun” value on most maps since there are no infantry to speak of and he can do nothing but observe during armor duels.Īs main gunner you are also able to pop the top hatch and get out your binoculars to survey the field (scroll wheel while in the main gunner seat). This is one advantage to having a real person man the main gun with you, since you can move and reload at the same time. However, it doesn’t simulate the extra crew position correctly – which means you must sit in the gunner seat to get it to reload.

If you are playing without real people in your tank (as most do) you will have to manually move from driver to gunner and back. As a German or Russian tanker, you will usually get in a vehicle which has slots for three crewmembers the driver, the main gunner, and the hull gunner. If you love this game for infantry fighting, I salute you!įirst, some basics of this game. I have no interest in being an infantryman – and I jump out of infantry-only maps. I should state up front that I am interested in Red Orchestra (RO) exclusively for tank battles. My goal is to help you be the former, while pointing out ways to minimize the effects of the latter. Does this game treat armor as a sophisticated combat arm or merely a mobile artillery piece? Do infantry and armor work together or treat each other with indifference? Much depends on whether your team is composed of Panzer Leaders or Panzer Losers. Red Orchestra: Are You a Panzer Leader or Panzer Loser? By Brian KingĪfter spending the better part of the past week learning the ins and outs of armored warfare in Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45, I thought it might be nice to share some of my observations from the front lines.
