       Your undying love for the T-32 has made me question your sanity
       and our anti-arty alliance.
       Plus, after repeatedly getting killed by them, I decided to join
       the if-you-can't-beat-them-join-them-club.  :ammo:

       I have one, but haven't taken in out of the garage in at least
       1500 games, so I voted "no".  I respect arty players, and
       appreciate the role they play on the battlefield.

       i play quite a lot of arty.
       i normally try to help my team mates push up to enemy base
       rather than just go for kills or sometimes help the weaker side
       defend a flank.

       I play artillery quite a bit. I love the M44. People rant about
       artillery, but some of their behavior is unbelievably stupid.
       Countless times I've seen tanks remain still after scoring a
       direct hit on them.

       I think a lot of people don't pay enough attention to whats
       happening.  There are lots of times ill pick someone apart and
       they just ignore where the damage is coming from.  :1foryou:

       They have their job to do, and I have mine.  If I'm smiling when
       I get a pascucci's medal... well its more like I'm happy that I
       was able to avoid their meds/heavies/TDs to get into the back
       lines.  Every time an arty hits and kills me while I'm at full
       speed, they get a "nice shot" message from me.  While I've
       probably killed more artys than most, I don't have the hatred
       for arty that some people do, probably because I've never really
       spent any time driving heavies or TDs.

       I am making an effort to figure out how ARTY works, especially
       when in a place like Himmelsdorf and "shot obstructed".  But by
       golly, others somehow got ARTY to work and blow tanks up.
       Parked myself by a few to simply observe so maybe I could figure
       out how it is done.

       Playing arty on Himmelsdorf is a nightmare. Hate. It. You either
       have to:
       
       - Park on the center, north-south road, moving after each shot
       or parking there and hoping no one spots you
       
       - Go to the castle and try to support the attack with the hopes
       of being able to park up there when the reds are dead
       
       - Go to the corner of the train tracks (northeast or southeast)
       and do what you can on that side of the map (works well for
       encounter)
       
       - Park at a high-traffic corner and try to shotgun folks as they
       come by
       I've done them all and, oddly, had my best Himmelsdorf arty game
       doing the last one.
       Of course, I also got killed by an arty there whilst I was in my
       AT-2. Sad part was that I only had to kill that arty for a
       Pool's medal. The Radley is nice, but ... man I was sooooo
       close!!

       why is it, when I play ARTY I am never the bottom-tiered member?
       Especially since I am only a neophyte (even lower than a noob)
       on any of my ARTY'S?
