While there are numerous accounts (mainly from WW2 on the Eastern Front) of tank on tank ramming action; why so many rules and questions in Ogre?

If you ram anything your own size or larger, you are disabled for the full game or destroyed completely, as is your opponent. Ramming anything smaller than you should be seen as ramming guns and trucks, not armor. For all the documented rams in history, there are very few where the ramming vehicle gets away clean.

Needless convolutions that cannot be supported by historical research.
