Another DM question.

[Panzerlang]

I'm wondering if the DM will be so complex as to model cannon-rounds deflecting off the surface of a plane if fired at sufficiently an oblique angle? Or at least detonating externally to the surface they otherwise would have penetrated if not fired at so oblique an angle?

 

I understand there are limits to how much can be calculated on the fly, I'm just curious.

I don't remember if this is in RoF, but I would guess you should look there for the answer. If it's in RoF, it'll be in BoS for sure.

 

I'd also love to know if jammed guns will be a thing, and how they will be modeled if so. I liked IL-2's method of only jamming in response to damage, since most WWII aircraft can't reset jams until they are on the ground.

If i remember correctly i have seen rounds ricochet of planes in ROF. Not sure though.

Ricochets are modelled in RoF, but they're kind of basic. I think I remember seeing a statement about it being a focus in BoS development to make them more realistic.
