Don't think of them as Anti-Tank but Anti-material Weapons.

Well about ATR you can definetly kill Pz4 easily with them. Alam Halfa is a good practiceground for them because mad german tankers drive their tanks like they would be driving tigers. Thanks to that you can get easy shots to their exposed back and kill them with 3-4 shots. And with Boys ATR you can shoot those 3-4 shots REALLY fast, way faster than with Panzerbüchse because it must be loaded every time you shoot and it takes time. So they are not so bad at AT job but as everyone has already stated you need to know where you shoot or you just dent their pretty paint.

yeah i drive my tanks like i am in a tiger and cap flags in no time, i rarely got stopped by infantry in alam halfa, ATRs are even worse to tanks compare to bazookas to tigers.

don't tell it's easy to shoot a medium tank with your ATR. many people just have the chance to hit 1-2 times (not even disabling it) before the tank turned(that means you cannot hurt it) and blast you out(or not, depends on the tanker is busy enough or not)

Where exactly are you hitting them? I have never managed to damage PzIIIs and PzIVs with the ATR, I thought it was impossible.

Well like I mentioned I myself did get in a few hits at lucky moments but it was usually only one and then Id get killed or just be shootin for nothing.
TBH its a bad tactic to go against Medium and Heavy tanks with your ATR.
And since the other vehicles are almost never encountered its actually kinda useless to take the kit at all IMHO.....especially as Germans with the low rate of fire and the bomb that wont even stick :/.
I rather just take my 'chances' and wait for backup or try to get the heck out.

I dunno, I actually prefer the German explosives to the British sticky bomb, I find it easier to use and way more effective.

Just wait them to pass you and shoot in their rear armor. If you shoot there it always gets damaged and about 3-4 shots from Boys takes them down or at least to critically damaged. Oh and thanks to uneven terrain of Alam Halfa you can sometimes get shots to bellies of tanks and it hurts them alot.

I can't do any damage, at least I'm not getting a hit indicator. Where exactly in the rear armor should I be aiming?

maybe it has a higher explosion, Im not sure about that
but easier usage? no sorry, have to fully disagree on that
usually the tank has driven away by the team I place it

I'm just aiming in the middle of rear armor and it registers hit everytime BUT I'm not sure about Pz3 as most time tanks I've had luck to kill are Pz4 (F1-2). Maybe Pz3 has thicker rear armor than Pz4. On the other hand with Panzerbüchse it seems hard to kill anything but ATGs and light vehicles.
