do you just cloak it and make it travel a 180 around the map behind tanks or something?
retreat doesnt help when its crew gets habitually wiped in single shots/nades
how about any other AT that can hit tanks without being in its range of view? that's not ambushing, but cloaking in order to get 1 or 2 surprise shots and then getting insta wiped or the tank driving out of its cone is?
i really cant understand
The advantage in my view is two fold

1. You have more say on when the engagement will occur
2. It is very unlikely to get flanked.

These are some rather nice factor especially before camo units got nerfed.

All AT guns do same damage (160) 4 shots to kill a medium tank.

ZiS-76 have barrage ability and innate 6 man crew from soviet
PaK40 have Target Weak point (Stun) that is timed ability.
M1 57mm have the largest cone but have subpar penetration and can only have better penetration if using ability. Also take aim is better if you want to kill rereating tank.
Raketenwerfer can hide and enter building and retreat. It has worse pen but can pen most allied tanks
6-pdr is like PaK40 but have rapid manuver ability (Which I don't ever see use other than trying to run away)

how do you have more say? i have less say usually, as i have less range
idk i find it much easier to flank raketens
whenever i play okw vs allies its always difficult to get rid of their AT by flanking since its much further back, but whenever i play brits i know the raketen is gonna have to be in my tanks face to actually shoot so i can just put the tank in, make it shoot to reveal, pull it back and just throw a nade or something and 1shot it
the centaur even wipes it before it can get a shot off usually lol

Yeah well, unless you have 4 of them, they are either gonna get wiped after their first shot, or the enemy tank retreats out of the 2 metre range.

Yes. almost all factions AT guns outrange Tanks , so technically they are ambushing the tanks... Raketen cloaking and moving in snail speed to get 1-2 shots that probably miss or bounce which after raketn crew gets killed while retreating then stolen.. that's not how i would define an ambush
