Why Zara? She wasn't one of the ships damaged by the attack irl, and in AL she was fighting York so she wasn't even in Taranto during the raid

If anything you should make sure Cavour and Trento don't see it as the former was sunk and the latter was heavily damaged

Because Zara has PTSD from a night battle. It's in her voice line. Just a little joke for the meme...

"Tenacemente, that is, fighting to the bitter end, no matter the odds, is my personal motto.Looking up at the night sky, admiring the countless glimmering stars, it's really nice, actually. But it's better enjoyed from inside... don't you think?"

I always assumed that she was referring to the battle of Matapan. Makes more sense for her to not be fond of remembering the battle where both her sister Pola and the rescue squad lead by Zara herself were sunk (Except for 2 DDs) rather than the Taranto raid

I know it was another night battle. That's the joke... It made her hesitant of any nighttime activity.

That's fair, my bad for misunderstanding what you meant then

Thanks

Are we talking about user being caught in the blast, or that the round won't even arm?

Apparently this gives the arming range of 5m. I guess it's ammunition dependent...and yeah I heard about the hypersensitive one. There's a case of insurgent blowing themselves when they tripped or something?

I mean you could always hit the dude with the explosive end like a spear

idk man, even inside arming range it's just a rocket-propelled lance...

Also, it's a shaped charge - in case of premature detonation, the blast will be focused away from the shooter. Still not as good as no explosion, but beggars can't be choosers...

Depending on how much space (or open windows) is there behind the shooter, firing it backwards and using point-blank rocket exhaust as a weapon might not be that dumb.
