would it also beat a Duck Pz 1on1 in a head-on combat?

 

Although, Duck Pz outmaneuvers Matilda, which is an advantage if used correctly

Pretty sure the duck could be penned....the average pen is 121mm and goes up to 151mm of pen....the real question is can the duck deal any significant damage to a Matilda?

This is what a fully upgraded Matilda and a fully upgraded duck would see if they pointed thier guns at each other

The "Duck Pz" I meant is the Pz B2 (well, you know, that captured French tank that was turned into a German tank)

I'll just tell you outright the sides and back are instantly pierced by APCR.....(except the grates on the back the angle they are at is an autobounce) and AP fired at the side is all red too

He as in the tank commander lol...Matilda's definitely a girl XD

[Klaus_Klavier]

So if you want to stand a chance against a Matilda load ALL APCR....but his ROF is good and he doesn't need APCR to pen you anywhere

sorry for the misunderstanding, gentlemen. Anyways, if I face Matilda head-on with ap, I'd need to hit the roof and I have to be on a high ground for that to work

Yes, lol and even then they have decent gun elevation so don't be surprised if you snipe down on one and they shoot back up at you 

[GunShycc]

It's a hopeless cause. It is like saying you can take on a tank with a machine gun, because you have such a high ROF, and even without armor, you are so much more mobile and agile than the tank. 

 

In real war, true enough just "troops" could take out a tank, if they had the STEALTH and KILLING power to get the job done. Sticky Bombs, magnetic mines, Molotov Cocktails, Flamethrowers, PIATS, Bazookas, Panzerfaust, Cyanide / Poison Grenades, some of them quite deadly for the tank or the tank CREW, but some of the options a guaranteed suicide run for the trooper.

 

The B2 wasn't used by the Germans in real life as a frontline tank, it was used against captive people, resistance forces not armed like true frontline troops, or weaker tanked or tankless, no artillery enemy forces. 

 

I've tried this first hand, even if you shoot nothing but gold rounds from the B2 at the Mat BP, you will lose your @$$ in credits and W/R, in all but the most lucky of circumstances. Without Arty support, or Blitz bringing in Engineer or Storm Troopers armed with special anti tank weapons, Blitz battles with many of the lower tiers tanks or the PZ B2 will not end well. 

 

The Pz B2 could barely hold it's own against a Hetzer, M3 Lee, DW2, or the Valentine, with just AP, or a little better with a mix of AP and APCR, and that is fighting one of those at a time, but in a combo of the aforementioned, you alone without help are soon a dead duck. Now with the Mat BP in the mix of the above, it may actually be cheaper to just take the loss and go AFK, without wasting credits shooting basically "blanks" of any extra cost rounds in a vain effort.

First hour of the update I took my B2 out thinking "all these weak low tier Brits will be fun" and then I met the Matilda I was like WHAT IS THIS THING I CANT PEN HIM ANYWHERE OMG THIS IS A BRITISH MEDIUM??? and he almost killed me but I was saved at the last second by an incoming derp shell from a T82 that finished him off....it was that moment I knew what I must do....become the Matilda.....and 3 matches later I had my 5 kill game that had 107 bounces and 20 pens (mostly track damage)
