The Russian T-28 E can't destroy it ...

[jswarpaint]

I am using only the first or second tier of friendly units .. I have AT infantry a basic german AT gun the very first one you can get and I can't destroy the T-28 E tank .. as I was using my infantry that have anti tank grenades the tank even went broad side to my AT Gun but it just kept bouncing off ..

Having hit it with 3 infantry anti tank grenades these do NOTHING .. it should at least Track the tank blow off tracks so it can't move and then the infantry can spy on it in case they try to repair it .. instead with no enemy infantry around it goes up to all my units and annihilates them ..

I guess I am suppose to run from the thing and try and cap the points .. this is an attack map ..

The main problem is the AI should NOT be allowed to field things in different classes that the player is fielding or at least there should be options to turn this on and off.

Imagine how enjoyable things would be if one could fight a balanced fight of enemy and friendly units of the same class then the strategy and tactics would be important.

its kind of like the current plane glitch .. ya can't shoot down the plane it flies over then flies back and takes out whatever it wants to .. and people complain about it and this is because .. wait for it .... they are playing against units they cannot destroy ...

if the devs want a game like the Alamo then call it Ostfront Alamo ..

Or maybe I am only suppose to play Russian to be able to win battles maybe that's it I should play test that and see what the Germans get to bring in how they maybe outclass me ..

Pretty sure an AT grenade on the engine deck is enough to destroy a t-28.

Shoot at the center

Dunno man . T28 armor is so weak even 37mm will pen it.

What day of the Campaign are you playing here?
How big a campaign did you choose when you started? (small, medium, large, very large)

Seems like you are a couple of days in and haven't researched a decent AT weapon yet. As in a 50mm Pak 38 or better.

As a new player starting "Conquest" it can be difficult to work out what to spend research points on. It is possible to research "the wrong stuff" and then you've backed yourself into a position where it is very difficult to win.

The 75mm leIG Infantry gun has a very effective HEAT round that should take care of the T-28 (and anything lower) but that won't help if you haven't researched it yet.

As Germany you need to prepare early for the heavy Soviet tanks.
If you are having trouble with a T-28 just wait until the KV tanks roll onto the field...........

For the 37mm PaK 36 at close range (like 50m or less) use the APCR ammo. Make sure you hit a flat part of the tank nothing curvey, sloped or round. APCR isn't good if it isn't flat. At longer ranges use APHE.

The T-28 is a large tank so I assume it has a lot of "hull" HP. The 37mm is a small round so even if it does penetrate it will take quite a few shots to disable the tank.
The T-28 also has a large number of crew so it might take a long time to kill them all.
Tracks on the T-28 are covered and it can be difficult to track.
The Panzerbuche 39 AT rifle is next to useless unless you are right next to the T-28.
AT grenades will get he job done but the cost in your infantry may not be worth it. If you try AT grenades make sure you throw smoke to hide the soldiers in and approach from the rear flanks. The T-28 has two MG turrets on the front which will quickly mow down infantry if you aren't careful. Don't forget some versions of the T-28 have an MG in the turret rear so watch out for that one as well.
