RE: Tip thread
AT guns and artillery pieces are not considered vehicles in SB. (Just to be clear, something with AT capabilities like a halftrack would indeed be considered a vehicle, though I assume that's not when you meant by an AT gun. If anyone isn't sure about the distinction, basically any AT gun or artillery piece that can be "picked up" and "dropped" by a squad is considered a weapon. If it can't, then it's a vehicle.)

You will generally want to use HE when firing against AT guns and artillery pieces. That is, unless the target is in a bunker or pillbox, in which case you'll want to use AT load.

According to the manual: "Certain modern weapons have a high degree of specialization as anti-tank weapons, but are not as effective against infantry targets. These weapons are flagged as having an increased lethality against vehicles and targets in Bunkers and Pillboxes. When used against such targets, the lethality of the weapon is doubled. This feature is indicated by an ampersand (&) after the Fire value."
