4. 🚧 Environmental Factors and HESH's Chronic Issues
· Environmental elements like building windows or logs on vehicle sides absorbed HESH rounds, preventing damage.
· Even targeting the King Tiger's turret or cupola often resulted in minimal or no damage, reaffirming HESH's chronic problems.
· Situations were often difficult with HESH alone, requiring support from allied heavy tanks like the T30 to finally take down enemies.
