I mean I like the show and all, but is it ever explained why they try to kill one another? Or why they live on a giant CAV?

Watch it again. They said the inside is covered with carbon protection.

Same thing in Detroit. They are ghetto ass motherfuckers, no regard for human life. But with tanks instead of colts.

>>74685785
Forgot to mention, they only fire till it is immobilized. Not to kill each other.

/g/ is much more easy to detect sarcasm than you guys.

>>74686753
But my subs autism.

5.5 is just a recap and reintroduction of the characters, their favorite tanks and the different tanks that have appeared so far.

My favorite part is how batshit crazy Miho is, just chilling with her head sticking out of the hatch during engagements.

>>74686753

>>74693517

Cost, probably.

you can weld together a panzer IV pretty easily compared to a modern tank with composite armour and that is one of the more complex, refined tanks of that era. since panzerfahren is a popular sport, chances are there is still some workshop in Essen making new, OEM Panzer IV's and replacement parts for them.

>tfw you can't go to the local Mercedes dealer and pick up a 2013 Panzer III

>>74694190
You know, if they wanted to they could very easily take this show to a very dark place.

There are a lot of things in the show that could be interpreted as Miho being mentally unstable. Her family forced her into the tankery discipline, something that she cant ever escape from. She's been called for having "dirty tactics." She continually puts herself in harms way. She has a blindly loyal fangirl who would do anything she says... The list goes on.

This could very easily have a nice carrier ending.

>>74694846

I pretend to be a schoolgirl on Omegle I'm calling it close enough

>>74694626

I'm assuming the original post was asking why they all use WWII tanks.

While passing by a high school track field I got to wondering if tankery isn't something like modern day sports. To use basketball as an analogy:

You have high school basketball which is not all that important. They don't have giant fancy arenas or equipment, just run of the mill cheap to maintain stuff. In GUP universe this would be the WWII tanks. Cheap, simple, sturdy.

Then, you have college basketball. Things start to get a little bigger here and these games are usually broadcast on TV as well. They are much higher profile so they get better equipment and the professional leagues like the NBA are watching them for possible drafting. In GUP universe, what if university teams run Cold War era stuff like M-60s and T-62s?

And last you have the professional leagues. The nationally watched NBA with giant arenas and huge stars. In GUP universe, this would be where the Oorai instructor is from. She's using a Type 10, an ultra-modern MBT. At the professional level they all use modern equipment like Abrams, Challengers, and Leopards.

I want to live in this universe.

>>74695078
But you're not a girl so all it would change is what sports you watch.

The Oarai instructor Ami Chouno is a JGSDF tanker. She's a full military tanker, not a Senshado tanker, explaining why she uses the modern Type 10.

The rules of Senshado also prohibit tanks made after August 15, 1945, aka VJ Day, but allows completed prototypes built before that date.

I thought it said designed before August 15, 1945, so technically the blueprint tanks are not really exempted.

>T95 vs E-100

The way they pilot the tank makes me cringe
First of all WHY would they have the Panzer 38t and the japanese tincan? Those things lack the firepower to harm other tanks, they lack the armour to take any hits and they lack the speed to be useful.

Because Panzerkraft was abandoned in Ooarai, and the equipment wasn't replaced/updated as it should have.
I'm sure those tanks were top tier before the activity was dropped. But I hear they (or at least MC's team) are getting upgrades.

Or is it...?

I want to see combined operations in GuP somehow, where you have artillery, naval and air action.

Glorious Midway city carrier fleet vs city carrier fleet battle, where more than 10 towns, 600 planes take part.

The show's ridiculous, but it's completely self-aware in that regard.

It pretty much handwaves the danger at every given opportunity (We use live rounds, but they're used with safety first!) and tells the viewer "Yes, this would be extremely dangerous and stupid IRL. But they have the strongest safety precaution of all: plot armor. Stop overthinking it and enjoy some lighthearted tank battles and sports story antics with cute girls. Just pretend that there's no danger at all."

With the presentation as it is, you might as well be complaining about people treating a children's card game like the most important event that could ever happen.

GuP is tank and military fanboy porn, but it still trends strongly towards cartoony.

Is there gonna be a spinoff where Miho's old friends join the Nationals to meet her and forgive her for trying to send them to a watery grave?

>>74708675
no, because people are dead after you killed them.

>>74708080
Their tanks are "carbon coated" on the inside, which apparently defeats anything a WWII era tank could fire.

The little flag things also apparently are automated, since in their fight with the brits the M3 crew abandoned their tank, which then got hit but then sprouted the flag anyway. So they're not vanilla tanks really, but they're treated as such.

>>74708675
They are dead.

But you also have people complaining about PTSD Stalker-chan sticking her head out of the tank, as well as other stuff like them taking the battle into the city, which would definitely result in both schools being sued and possibly several of the students landing in juvenile hall if that happened IRL.

It doesn't want you to think too hard.

>>74708886

It was fine when they took the battle into the city. No civilians were hurt and the shops that get damaged are compensated/renovated for their loss.

>>74711283

well, I enjoyed my time with the MG3 (not exactly the same weapon but still...)

sadly, I couldn't fire the main gun of the L2, so I envy Hana a little bit.

autism-chan: that's not a cheese sandwich

Since Panzers were hijacked by women for use in "martial arts" instead of being used for World War 2 said world war bogged down once again into infantry trench warfare.

In the end both sides A-bombed the shit out of each other rendering large sections of the world radioactive as fuck. So now large numbers of the populace live on self sufficient super sized aircraft carriers with a few land ports supporting them.

Can someone translate what erwin said in this page

>>74711645
47mm main gun. About as powerful as the Type 89's.
75mm hull howitzer. I don't know how well it fared against tanks, it was suppossed to be used against structures.
Thick armor, 40-60mm front.
28-23km/h top speed, so it won't be winning races.

Overall, it could supplement the StuG.

>>74711645

In terms of armaments the B1's 60mm is better than the guns on the Type 89 and the Pz38(t), but not by much. The 75mm howitzer on the hull is more powerful, but only effective against fortifications.

The B1 bis has better armor than the 38(t) or the 89, but isn't much faster than both of them. Finally, it's still weaker than the team's heavy hitters, the M3, Stug III and the PzIV.

How many people here read these threads but don't watch GuP? The related discussion is more interesting than the show for me.

>You will never have an S-tank in WoT

>>74711992

Correction: 60mm of armor. It has a 47mm turreted gun.

>Finally, it's still weaker than the team's heavy hitters, the M3, Stug III and the PzIV.

It should be noted that while the B1 bis has less powerful AT weapons than the PzIV Ausf. D, it is still a match against the tank in everything else. The tank closest in performance to the B1 would be the M3 Lee.

>>74712487
True.

Heinz Wilhelm Guderian? The man that wrote Achtung - Panzer!, the mastermind behind Blitzkrieg doctrine, the guy that actually could operate every single tank in Wehrmacht...

"Der Motor des Panzers ist ebenso seine Waffe wie die Kanone". (The engine of the Panzer is a weapon just as the main-gun).

"Es gibt keine verzweifelten Lagen, es gibt nur verzweifelte Menschen". (There are no desperate situations, there are only desperate people).

"Man schlägt jemanden mit der Faust und nicht mit gespreizten Fingern". (You hit somebody with your fist and not with your fingers spread) - Meaning that you should concentrate your Panzers for one mighty push in one direction and not distribute them.

In addition to what >>74711972 and >>74711992 said:

Detailed armor thickness (mm) :

Turret Front : 56mm/0° + gun and CMG mantlet (56mm)/round covering about 50% of the front surface
Turret Sides : 56mm/22.5°
Turret Rear : 56mm/22.5° (rear hatch is 56mm thick)
Turret Top : 30mm/74° and 90°
Copula : 48mm/25° and 90° (round)
Hull Front, Upper : 60mm/20°
Hull Front, Lower : 60mm/45°
Hull Sides, Upper : 55mm/20°
Hull Sides, Lower : 55mm/0°
Hull Rear : 55mm/43° and 0°
Hull Top : 14-27mm, mostly 25mm/90°
Hull Bottom : 20mm/90°

David Lehmann give the values of 40mm/30° at 400m for both the 47mm SA35 (w/ APC) and 75mm SA35 (w/ APHE).

Guderian was every bit as lonely as Yukari, with only those that truly follow him seeing a warm side to the guy.

Russell A. Hart dis warn that serving with Guderian was high attrition rate matter. His XIX Corps in Poland (1941) made 200 miles in 4 days, taking 43% of Army Group North's causalities (3 times the rate of every other unit in Army Group North).

The one man that did pose some problem for Guderian was Charles de Gaulle, but de Gaulle lacked the ability to truly stop Guderian's steamroller.

But the B1's 47mm cannon is much better than that of Type 89
