"In our game, however , it's the opposite. As much as possible, everybody focus on one poor bugger, and just melt him."

Design flaw on the Da Vinci tank (as far as I can tell) is that the prop will turn the front and back wheels in the opposite directions. Looking forward to more in this series!

It's likely that the "design flaw" was just an oversight - detailed, to-scale design and technical drawings as we use them today were not a thing at that time. Leonardo's "tank design" isn't a technical drawing, it's a small, hastily sketched drawing on a page with many other things on it. It wasn't something he put much, if any, thought into. He did that a lot, little sketches of ideas that popped into his head, probably just to remind himself of them later. The fact that he never expanded on the idea later is probably indicative of the fact that he knew it to be completely unworkable.

Decent material. Used to build M60A1's, M60A2's, M60A3's and M1's at the Chrysler Tank Plant in Warren so I am looking for your next school lesson.

Aren't you special.

I don't play WoT, I personally prefer War Thunder, but wargaming is a lot more active with their community than Gaijin is, and I'm really enjoying these vids!

As far as: "I am a tanker and I know what I am talking about." goes, yes, I have found tankers who know nothing about tanks nor tanking. However even god level knowledge of WWII tanks is not much use in modern combat either.

I hated the most was losing a track in the real world at Ft. Irwin CA. One of the longest days I had was breaking my right track and the engine went into protective mode. Just completely shut down. My batteries were dying and the radio was about to go dead. First and foremost was report my location to my troop and squadron and also reconfirm my location using GPS and map and compass resection. Once my chain of command was satisfied with my location we as a crew had to try and fix the track and wait for the HHT platoon to jump my tank. We waited for 48 hours until they found us because of the simulated battle going on. One thing for sure I made sure my crew packed food and water for a week. After this ordeal I went to the commo sergeant and asked for 2 fresh spare batteries so I can pull the radio out of the tank and configure it to an Infantry radio should the main power of the tank die out. The squadron commander agreed with me after talking to him because this made sense. If a tank was out of action the TC or crew can report a SITREP to the unit. So the following day I managed to get a separate SINGCARs radio in a man pack/infantry configuration with all the OPSEC fills in it just in case we broke down in BFE (Bum Fuck Egypt) or somewhere out there in the vast NTC. Never had it happen before until that time at NTC. When in Iraq during 2006-08 we carried spare batteries in case we had to dismount the radios out of the vehicles.

I wish Nicholas Moran wouldn't be so black-&-white about "saying you're a tanker doesn't mean a hoot" with some common-sense qualifiers. He's correct it doesn't arm someone to soberly analyse the needs across a theater of operation, loss rates, how frequent enemy tanks were actually encountered, cause no one person on the ground could possibly know all that. At best, they can make inferences, subject to extreme bias. But stories like yours show the legitimate insights you can only gain by operating real-life kit, in garrison, training & war. Cause current-&-former 19K's _are_ a wealth of subject matter experts in that regard. PS -- I'm a former 19K myself, now a medic, reclassed cause in 4 years I was assigned to a tank for 2 glorious months and have 1 road march under my belt as a driver; never qualified TT VIII. Used to be bitter about those facts, now they just are what they are, chugging along fine as a medic. :)

We all served with guys who weren't smart enough to empty piss out of a boot ... but ... those guys probably aren't posting on the internet either ... Some of these kids posting here - have no idea how abysmally ignorant they are - yet that doesn't stop them from stridently proclaiming "a real infantryman wouldn't do that!" I'd rather deal with someone who thinks they know more than they really do - just because they were in the military and operated some piece of equipment - than some of the silly little twits I've seen here. .

Or place a geared drive between the human crank handle and the drive sprocket, rather than the direct drive connection that seems to appear in the drawing. In that way you can still use a single crank to turn the wheels on each side in the same direction. Then you have one man on each side (or one team) to drive that side, and they steer the vehicle through differential speed from side to side.

I always liked that story from tank school. Basically new tankers are doing three courses: Radio, engines and gunnery. At the Radio school the sergeant points out that the radio is the most important part of the tank. After all, if you have a gun that works, and a tank that can move, but no radio, then you will not be able to be where the action is and therefore your tank is useless. At the engine school it is pointed out that the motor is the most important part of the tank. After all, if you have a radio that works and a gun that works, but the engine does not; then what you have is a pill box and you cannot be where you are needed. Then at the gunnery school the sergeant there points out that the gun is the most important thing on a tank. After all if you have a radio that works and an engine that works, but the gun does not work; what you have then is a 60 ton portable radio.

I like the format of this. keep them coming :)

+Miodrag Mijatović G'day, Well, y'see, it's like this...; "Shell Shock" was what the WW-1 British & French & US medical & psychiatric "Industry" came up with, as a description for what had happened to Combat Veterans who were displaying a wide variety of signs & symptoms, after having been through a wide variety of *terrifying* experiences...; but because much of WW-1 Combat experience involved sitting in a hole in the ground & being shot at by Mortars or other Artillery *using explosive "Shells"...,* and because many of the Patients exhibited a "Neurogenic" Shock - they therefore called the condition "Shellshock", and a kind of a "convention" grew up to the effect that unless one had been shelled then one couldn't possibly be suffering from "Shellshock".... (which was basically a wrongheaded misunderconstumbling of what was really going on). By the time WW-2 had finished, the Military Psychiatrists had come to recognise that "Combat-Fatigue" or "Battle-Trauma" or "Combat Psychosis" was a more or less predictable phenomena..; and following WW-2 the pivotal Mitchell Study revealed that in the Pacific Theatre of Operations only 13% of US Marine Corps Infantry had actually fired their weapons when they first encountered a Combat Situation (!), and out of the more seasoned & experienced Veterans the proportion of Shooters rose to only 30%...., therefore the concept of "Operant Conditioning" was deliberately introduced in the US Military in an attempt to increase the proportion of their Infantrymen who actually fired their Weapons, when they were in Combat. In WW-2 the "Battle-Fatigue/Combat-Psychosis" rate was around 15% of Allied Combat participants, which roughly corresponded to the people who didn't fire their weapon the first time they had a chance - but they later-on learned to make themselves actively participate...; and in doing so they somehow fried something important inside their minds. By the time of the Korean War the US Army Medical Corps well understood that after 60 days of continuous Combat-Exposure then 98% of participants have become Psychiatric Casualties ; while the other 2% were already Sociopaths before encountering Combat, and they thrive in an Environment where they're allowed to kill people - and while they do win lots of medals they have a high casualty-rate. Due to the Operant-Conditioning, in Vietnam the US Forces achieved a 45% First-time Shooter rate, rising to 60% after several Combat Encounters..., and following Vietnam the US Combat-Neurosis/Psychosis/Battle-Fatigue rates leaped from 15% in WW-2, to 50% in Indochina ; apparently as all the "extra" people who had been "conditioned" to participate, and managed to "respond correctly" at the time - but they cooked something in their Brains, while doing so. Colonel David Grosseman (Retired US Green-Beret, 2-Tour Viet. Vet., Professor of "Kill-ology" at MIT...) theorised that 5% of Humanity has 2 copies of a Human-Killer Gene & 10% have 1 Copy... (which allows them to kill their own Species), and that they are the "First-Time Shooters" because they have no qualms to overcome...(2 copies of HKG), or their sense of Selfishness easily overcomes whatever qualms they might've been raised to have ...(1 copy of HKG). Modern Neuro-Psychiatry holds the view that any time a Human is seriously terrified of being imminently killed, the momentary Stress overloads & permanently-damages circuits in their Amygdala (the bit of the Brain which mediates & processes Environmental Stressors)..., and severe or repeated Stress (Fear of Death) actually shrinks the Amygdala, and "puts it on a Hair-Trigger" so that forever afterwards - if the shrunken Amygdala thinks that it recognises an event or sequence of events similar to those leading up to the original Stressor, then the Amygdala immediately goes into a full-scale Action-Replay of the whole Fight & Flight Response...; and the original Stressor which burnt out the Amygdala also welded-up some Short-Circuits into the Hippocampus (the bits of the Brain which convert Short-Term Memory into Permanent Memories...) thus leaving "Islands of Memory" which are normally unaccessible - except when the Amygdala connects into them during one of it's "Flashback/Instant-Replays"... And *that* Sunny-Jim, is the phenomenon which they call "Post Traumatic-Stress Disorder"...; it can follow Combat, or Car-Accidents, Muggings, Bashings, Robberies, Chainsaw-Accidents, Childhood Sexual-Assault, Rape in Adulthood, Near-Drowning, Crashing Aeroplanes, or playing with Parachutes which fail to open or manage to become enangled..., or having a "Heart-Attack" (Myocardial Infarction). The Causational Commonality is the subjective experience of terrifying helplessness in the face of the fear of imminent actual death..., leaving afterwards a crippled Amygdala running spontaneous Action-Replays with it's access to the pristine Hippocampic Flashbacks from those unprocessed Islands of Memory, all while invoking the full-on Endocrine "Fight-Or-Flight Response" with massive bolus squirts of Adrenaline & Cortisol.... Tutorial concludeth... I hope that clarifies matters, somewhat..(?). Take it easy, Such is Life... ;-p Ciao !

it is clear to any highly functioning moron the obvious flaw in the Di Vinci's tank design is the thermal coupled di-lithium matrix is disproportionally connected to the isobaric interface at the thermal coupling, causing translational misalignment of the hyperspace injector ports resulting in a total overload of the space-time distortion bubble, Di Vinci should have referred to the TARDIS owners manual to overcome this mronic mistake, as it is readily available at any local pub!

Splendid presentation. I can't wait for WoT to finally introduce infantry support, as well as tanks having their secondary armament matter.

I was an Trained RTO( Radio operator ) in the 1/10 CAV in Vietnam you mentioned track loss due to mud and many other causes. Our M-48s would check the roads for mines by putting the inside of the track about 3 feet of the road and shag butt. anything within 6 feet of all that weight would explode. Their was always a couple of tanks with them so if they blew a track they have plenty of labor to fix it and if that did not work the VTR was only a radio call away. We secured QL-19 from the top of Ankhe Pass to Bridge 33. The Sheridan tanks of the 173rd Airborne did not do this, they out gunned us But the M-48 was a tough beast in a fight. They never rode in'em it was mostly on'em, even in a fight the loader was the only one in the tank as the driver had his own compartment. My first 6 months in country was with the 1/14 infantry, 4th Infantry division, Camp Radcliff, Ankhe until the 4th was sent back to the states. 14 of us were assigned the 1/10th Cav and did not go north, it was a whole new world after living on fire support bases that we dug ourselves. MOSes ( Training ) meant little if there was a job to do except when time to go on shift, as we worked 7 day a week. Really enjoy your talks

The Chieftain lecture series, yes please! Would also like to see more about modern tanking/future developments.

I was not bored at all truely. You are able to lecture and keep it interesting. More like this . The game comparisons were a nice touch.

Abou the definition of 'tank' I remember that during my conscription to Finnish Border Guards (20 years ago) it was specifically drilled that if machine of war is tracked it is a 'tank' or 'panssarivaunu' (armorwagon literally translated, Panzerwagen in German) and if it has wheels it was a vehicle 'ajoneuvo' of varying purpose. With such terminology T-72 is 'combat armorwagon', BMP-3 is 'assault armorwagon' and ZSU 23-4 is 'anti-air armorwagon'. Those were literal translations. Feels quite uncommon way to define things.

That was amazingly interesting and entertaining. I didn't expect less from you. Can't wait for the next one !

Infantry, the Queen of battle and in all my 316 years of being a Tanker, "Hammers' Slammers rule"!

I played both World of Tanks and War Thunder. I enjoyed the latters game play more. It has more ways to earn experience, and you can use all the weapons on multi gun tanks. But it's economy is a right mess after tier 1 unless you consistently get capture and kill streaks which are rare for the average player so you never progress. And there is a great deal of Russian bias in War Thunder. For example, I shot point blank into a T34 with a 76mm using AP from a M6 heavy. You know how tall that tank was, it's massive and I was shooting down on this guy from close range. The angle and range should have been more than enough to penetrate the front glacis like butter. It bounced. And he promptly ammo racked me and 4000 silver went down the drain because post battle maintenance is a bullshit ploy to make people buy premium accounts. In World of Tanks however the economy is less of a hot mess but there are fewer ways of earning experience, multi gun tanks are hamstrung by only being able to use the highest caliber gun equipped, and the way damage is tabulated you are more likely to die in one shot at a range or angle where you never get to even see the one who engaged you. The game play is terrible and frustrating. I like history, I like tanks, but none of these free to play games seem to get it right.

Warthunder at least uses some good physics and feels more like a simulation.. plus the lack of an HP bar in a tank game, which is the lamest thing ever. The problem you had is not only with t34s, it happens with everything that is slopped, but yeah, it tends to have a bias for russian crap. For example, a 88mm gun wont pen a jumbo frontal armor, while a 85mm russian (which is a worse gun) will always pen it.

Looks like a great series in the making. As for "this is a game and it should be fun" wont happen until you have the match maker only place like skilled folks in each match. This is a fundamental disconnect kind of like the critical hit thing. WG has made it clear that it wants better skilled players to be able to PWN lesser skilled players. One of the reasons it is a niche game in NA.

Ha Nick, did not fall asleep like a good infantryman should. Pretty good stuff too. I pretty much knew most of that stuff from my service. I enjoyed that you did point out that the Pog players do not look at their maps, or bring volume of fire on the same targets. Platooning was also touched upon, but I am sure that that fell on deaf ears as well. Not many platoons on the NA East server. I know that the battles are always far more enjoyable with military types, and the thinking is mostly in line with each other. Liked it, and hope to see one about tank platooning, and working together in the battle!
