Ok, it's the turn of the Apache cannon and Pak38 vs SU76M this week- the losers of the last poll- which means there are four more offerings! And they're mostly a bit different.First up we have PIAT vs Barn Door (as suggested). Obviously a joke to begin with but actually self-fulfilling: I set up a PIAT to fire at a barn and recorded where it hit and whether that was the door but... because targeting a building counts as area fire, the gunner wasn't aiming centre of mass and was spreading his fire about. So... the joke is intact, but it does actually undersell the PIAT somewhat.Next up for WW2 we have another less-useful-but-interesting entry: the M4A2 Sherman vs an early T-34. Obviously these were on the same side (or, fighting the same enemy) but it's a fun one. I went for the early T-34 (ie. 76mm gun, hexagonal turret etc) because the M2A4 is also an earlier Sherman variant.Meanwhile, in the modern day, we have a BM-21 salvo in Cold War. This is a slightly different format- there are no units under the barrage, it's mostly just because it looks impressive.

The second modern video is the flipside to the Abrams vs Ru Tanks: Russian tanks shooting at the Abrams. Same format, so it's an interesting counterpoint.As always- most votes in each category gets uploaded first, you can vote for more than one option and feel free to leave any suggestions as to what to try out next!I am looking into ways to get some tactical stuff in, but it's tough to fit into a 1 minute tall-thin format.

it's just like the piat. you'll have to have this as an option for a few votes until it actually scores a hit (becomes a video)
