The Thunder of War

[robust shale]

??????

[sullen latch]

How tf? Lmao

😂

[robust shale]

EXACTLY MY POINT

I swapped to HESH cause it's a short fuze

And should overpressure

Yea no fuck me I guess

I overpen the entire 4 crew

And it goes straight through the crew with only 2 dying

HOW

[sullen latch]

Gaijin logic i guess

😂

[robust shale]

stupid mf M3 bradley stole my 2nd kill when it was full severe damage no tail rotor

[robust shale]

*basically China bitching again

[cosmic dragon]

[robust shale]

now what.

Germany ground is all unlocked for high tier

[midnight ermine]

Now you do planes

[midnight ermine]

HMM @robust shale

which do i add to my lineup

im thinking of swapping the bmp for one of these

i also plan on adding another vehicle slot

[robust shale]

I don'tuse any of those lol

only the PzH2000

and even then it doesn't stay in my roster for long

[sullen latch]

All

[midnight ermine]

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8Sa2g6c/

@robust shale

[robust shale]

yep

I've had that happen as the groudn target

quite fun

[midnight ermine]

didnt do too shabby

sadly ran out of flare and ammo

and ofc we lose

yk how much i woulve made with a win?!?

hate this game sometimes

[robust shale]

@sullen latch 10.7 up tiered into 11.7 I had 0 kills with my MBTs but 3 kills with PzH2000

7.7 in 11.7

[robust shale]

ouch

[sullen latch]

Must be nice 😂

[robust shale]

just better

[cosmic dragon]

Correct that to any tank*

[robust shale]

The hell

[robust shale]

@ivory moss @sullen latch @midnight ermine fun fact

if you leave a SAM truck on a cap point

to cap

but don't occupy the vehicle as it does

you don't get the cap reward

the 2 SPAA markers with a black line = missile trucks

the one at the bottom I didn't occupy but it capped the point

[sullen latch]

Interesting

Makes kinda sense why they would make it to where you dont get credit for the cap even if its your truck tho tbh

[ivory moss]

fair enough

[cosmic dragon]

Imagine if we had an M48 flamethrower tank in game

[cosmic dragon]

Remember: if you're in a Tiger 1, ALWAYS ANGLE

[robust shale]

ain't no way my reddit post is 2nd in the thread

[midnight ermine]

perfect landing

[robust shale]

400 points off a nuke

sad

[robust shale]

@midnight ermine @ivory moss @sullen latch Kungstiger nerfed again

well semi nerf semi buff

specifically the 105 variant been changed

Explosive mass of APCBC reduced by 140g now sits at 100g, overall armor pen increased for all aspects/angles

[sullen latch]

Is that the P2W tiger? 😂

[robust shale]

it use to be tech tree

[cosmic dragon]

The swedish one I think

[sullen latch]

Ahhh gotcha

[robust shale]

the 105 only existed within German tech tree

and it never existed

it was a paper/made up version

https://wiki.warthunder.com/unit/germ_pzkpfw_VI_ausf_b_tiger_IIh_kwk46

This one

not sure if the nerf will stay but it's currently in dev server

so I assume it'll be added as a change

[sullen latch]

Nerf that fuckin thing plzzzzz

That thing is stupid

P2W tank needs a nerf 😂

[robust shale]

you can't get it

it's been removed from the game

there's no way to get it anymore

just like the Panther II

the Panther II was a fake tank with an amalgamization of parts and specs from the Panther series and Tiger II series

Tiger II Main gun, Panther F mobility, superior armor to the Panther line

[sullen latch]

Since when?

[robust shale]

Long time

[sullen latch]

I thought it was still a premium no?

[robust shale]

nope

[sullen latch]

Weirdddd lol

[robust shale]

if it was purchaseable it would have the market option

it was added years ago during the Closed Beta Test

but as of update 1.91 it was removed

[sullen latch]

I swear that used to be a GE premium tank 🤨

[robust shale]

nope

it was tech tree

it was in main line

[sullen latch]

Strange

[robust shale]

Update 1.91 was 2019

removed 6 years ago

[sullen latch]

Hmmmm

[robust shale]

Panther II removed same year

[cosmic dragon]

Yes

I've been killed by that so many times

[robust shale]

Even when I drop down tier I rarely see Tiger II 10.5

but then I rarely drop below 8.0 anymore

9.3 is about as low as I go for my own lineups

[ivory moss]

Still more than enough explosive mass

[robust shale]

nope

DEV server test shows it can't OP stuff

100g is not sufficient enough anymore

it'll still do good damage

[ivory moss]

No cupola?

[robust shale]

but it does a noticeable less

it's lost enough HE that the OP effect may not even trigger due to how little it has now

[cosmic dragon]

https://youtu.be/Qk33Qh8JFN4?si=QUGx31_2zcijpRuu

Gaijin should bring this back

[midnight ermine]

Yall ready for next month?

[robust shale]

China complaining about the Thai exported tank going to Japan is annoying as fuck

but then not like I play JP tech tree

[midnight ermine]

I play it

Just for fun tho

[cosmic dragon]

What's happening next month?

[midnight ermine]

Sales! On sales

[cosmic dragon]

Sales, sales and more sales?

[midnight ermine]

Yes

[midnight ermine]

On ge,premium vehicles,premium account,silver lion discounts ,packs

Should all be 50%

[cosmic dragon]

Nice

I need to buy more premium on Thursday but if premium is 50% off next month, I'll buy the year

[midnight ermine]

Yea same here

I’m down to my last 310 days

I’ll probs get a year with all the packs I’m picking up

Then I’ll get a nice 20k ge

[cosmic dragon]

I have 1m SL

[midnight ermine]

I’m saving mine up rn

Sitting at 5m

[cosmic dragon]

What I'm at rn

Lol

@midnight ermine I need GE for this

[midnight ermine]

Hmm

I never opened them

[cosmic dragon]

Isn't Gaijin bringing the Maus back to be researched next month?

[midnight ermine]

Yes

[cosmic dragon]

Thought so

That's my chance then

@midnight ermine @sullen latch @ivory moss

I think that's my second time doing it, first time on a heli

First time was an A-10

[cosmic dragon]

https://thunderskill.com/en/squad/[CATSR]

Hey we're pretty efficient

And I'm now an above average player

[robust shale]

@midnight ermine Time to get COOKED

Time to die y'all

[ivory moss]

Man i hate the a10’s

But when im in one…..

[cosmic dragon]

Did you see the clip

[ivory moss]

yer

cue lego sounds

[cosmic dragon]

Helicopter disassembled

[cosmic dragon]

I've never been able to get one in Arcade

[cosmic dragon]

I could not have timed the sound effect any better my God

[ivory moss]

lol

[cosmic dragon]

Absolute comedy

Heli pilot: "Bomboclaat"

[midnight ermine]

oh man thats nice

i do the same thing

but then insta sniped across the map

[cosmic dragon]

Look at my clip that I just posted lol

[cosmic dragon]

Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Gaijin hates fun

https://warthunder.com/en/game/changelog/current/1781

That's cool

So I WASN'T going crazy

[cosmic dragon]

According to Gaijin, my PC is too slow to run the launcher, despite it having a 7800X3D and 7900 XT

And the update messed up my skins on the Tiger 2 tanks

[cosmic dragon]

That's cool

Makes it easier to clip

Ez kills

[sullen latch]

Get a faster PC 😂

[cosmic dragon]

it already is

Damn. Racked up 4 kills back to back before I got bombed

[ivory moss]

oh fuck

new update dropped and didnt even know about it lmaooo

[sullen latch]

Yes yes it did haha

Heard its a buggy broken mess as usual tho

[ivory moss]

bruhh this update is so weird

the mapssssss

[cosmic dragon]

Which is unsurprising

Performance is whack now

[robust shale]

yo

they finally updated the nuke carriers

finally we don't have to use the shit ass Jags

for top tier 11.3 above that is

[ivory moss]

oh cool

[robust shale]

so it has a chance to live

with flares and chaff

LMAO

[cosmic dragon]

@ivory moss @midnight ermine NOW I CAN RESEARCH IT

[ivory moss]

Noice

Im doing the m55, use it once and never touch it again

[cosmic dragon]

Messing with it in test drive, it's pretty damn good

[robust shale]

glass cannon but slow ahh reload + no ammo

[ivory moss]

Atleast it has decent armor

Well…. When compared to the m44

holy shit i just realized 39 sec reload

yeah im not even gonna try play it

[robust shale]

told ye

[cosmic dragon]

Why does the Strv 103 have to be shaped like a piece of cheese and also be hard to kill

[sullen latch]

Because cheese

[robust shale]

https://tenor.com/cH27J3g14z1.gif

[cosmic dragon]

Did you see that I finally started researching the Gepard?

[robust shale]

@ivory moss @sullen latch @midnight ermine OP mechanics seemed to have been changed

[ivory moss]

I just realized that

Ive been one shotting alot of tanks with my jumbo via cupola

[midnight ermine]

@robust shale first time seeing it

[midnight ermine]

wow

smh

[robust shale]

2.5s reload

you ain't winning

the T58 is ridiculous

2.5s reload 6 round auto loader

[midnight ermine]

Jeez

Pay to win huh

[robust shale]

HEAT shells

155mm

crazy

[ivory moss]

up it to 9.0 rn

8.3 is criminal

[ivory moss]

but tbh, gaijin will make a vehicle op so people will buy it alot then when they get enough sales theyll just nerf it lmao

[ivory moss]

same guy btw lol

[cosmic dragon]

update already

[ivory moss]

bruh so much lvl0 t58 playersss

[robust shale]

What'd you expect

now the US is filled with idiots

correction

more idiots

[sullen latch]

https://tenor.com/view/always-has-been-among-us-astronaut-space-betrayal-gif-23836476

[ivory moss]

fair enough lol

[cosmic dragon]

I just got the stronger APFSDS rounds for the Leopard 1A5

[robust shale]

Me as I suffer with idiots on Germany at all times

no omatter if we get new vehicles or not

literally Germany top tier I suffer

it's either Rommel or 6 feet under

[cosmic dragon]

How the hell does a uranium dart BOUNCE off a Leopard 1 chassis

[ivory moss]

cuz gaijin

[cosmic dragon]

It was the ItPsV Leopard 2 Marksman

you can see there too

[ivory moss]

oh

well that shot wouldnt have done much anyways

[cosmic dragon]

https://medal.tv/games/war-thunder/clips/l6cXyaLm1jvm0juTL?invite=cr-MSxEeUMsNDUxMjIzNDUx

Ok this is kinda cool

[cosmic dragon]

https://youtu.be/iFj5hTQbLu4?si=3jcgrg15u-_uuQgq

[cosmic dragon]

How the hell are your clips so smooth but mine aren't

[ivory moss]

thats smooth?

those clips were spazzing out on my phone

[robust shale]

Discord mobile clips be like

Discord tends to fail to load ngl

[cosmic dragon]

Not on my phone

[cosmic dragon]

https://youtu.be/nufqIFpGyCY

[ivory moss]

Wtf is that thing

Yeah wow what a pos

Bushmaster cannon

[robust shale]

https://www.kkinstagram.com/reel/DPCCvu1EY0W/

[midnight ermine]

im ready for that 50% ge vehicles sale coming up

[robust shale]

[cosmic dragon]

I have two Leopard 2s I wanna buy

[sullen latch]

Inb4 its all Russian vehicles

[robust shale]

typical

[sullen latch]

But theres 0 russian bias

Right?

😂

[robust shale]

fuck NATO

can't have NATO tanks being stronger

[sullen latch]

Yeah even tho they have been proven to be already IRL 😂

[robust shale]

exactly

also

ammo racks

fucking ridiculous

[sullen latch]

Turret toss

[robust shale]

yeal

[cosmic dragon]

Better design too

[robust shale]

Imma turret toss an Abrams

wait

it's an Abrams

[sullen latch]

Thats not how that works

[robust shale]

literally me

that clip still baffles me

[sullen latch]

Yeahhh i.. dont even know how to explain that clip Hawk

Shit is wild asf 😂

[robust shale]

range finds it:

Commander: Abrams 11 oclock

me as I stare at the turret in the sky

[sullen latch]

😂

What abrams?

[robust shale]

hmmmm

yeetus deletus

[sullen latch]

I will say. The US did learn from their WW2 and Cold War tank designs when it comes to ammo racks

[robust shale]

yea

as did basically every NATO ally

[sullen latch]

Oh for sure

[robust shale]

well

except for Italy

Italy is stupid

the Ariete's ammo layout = Leopard 1

[sullen latch]

Ive never really understood Italys tank designs

Even their WW2 tanks seem weird

[robust shale]

fun fact the Ariete armor wise is actually good

[cosmic dragon]

The later Shermans had "wet" ammo stowage

[robust shale]

the turret cheeks are of like armor to the Abrams

the hull is like the Leopard 2

but in game it doesn't reflect that

it's just ass overall

[sullen latch]

The Shermans "wet ammo" storage still didnt change much

Because the ammo racks werent moved 😂

[robust shale]

wet ammo storage didn't really do as much

in theory it did

but well

they had so many shermans overall didn't really matter

[sullen latch]

Yeeee lol

The US produced so many Shermans during the war

But thats because they were cheap to make

[robust shale]

cheap and still decent

[sullen latch]

And most parts were interchangeable

Unlike German armor 😂

Its part of why Germany lost the war tbh

Overcomplex engineering

[robust shale]

german wheraboos whining that if germany stuck around in the war they woulda won with the Kungstiger

yea and look at the Soviets with the IS series of tanks

I think not

[sullen latch]

Nope 😂

The King Tiger tanks were stupidly heavy and broke down more than Tiger 1s did

[robust shale]

and were underpowered

[sullen latch]

Oh for sure

[robust shale]

cause the engines were the same as the T 1s

[sullen latch]

Its why Tiger 2 wasnt as mass produced as it couldve been by that point in the war

If Germany wouldve focused on Panther and mass producing it. It may have been better off potentially

[robust shale]

If Japan tried to hold out in the war they would have to fight 2 fronts

Soviets up top

and America from the bottom

the Panther probably was the best bet

[sullen latch]

Oh for sure

Decent armor, gun and mobility

The biggest issue Panther had was that as soon as the Allied Tankers encountered it... Allied armored command was coming up with an answer for it

Britian and her allies had the Sherman Firefly, the US had the TD line of tanks such as M10 and M18

And even M36 iirc

[robust shale]

if the tutel was mass produced and seen in the field

that would be

horrifiying

[sullen latch]

Sadly Tutel was just too heavy

[robust shale]

heavily impractical

[sullen latch]

And couldnt be transported effiencently

[robust shale]

the engine was the sherman

which is like

shite

[sullen latch]

Yeeee lmao

Sherman engines on Sherman were pretty good. Sherman engine on Tutel was garbage

Tutel was designed to break Maginot Line iirc no?

[cosmic dragon]

Yeah

[robust shale]

Siegfried

not Maginot

Maginot was useless

cause it was a defensive line to fight germany

[cosmic dragon]

What hawk said

[robust shale]

Maginot line was stripped of all useful parts

and then left alone

the Tutel was so delayed it never got to finish the job

or do its work

[sullen latch]

Ah yes youre right thank you. I always forget which one it was haha

[midnight ermine]

16 usa,12german,19 Russia,5 Italy,5 Japan ,3 France,2 Swedish,3 Chinese

[sullen latch]

And nothing but the Russian will be 50% off

[midnight ermine]

no no

everything will be 50%

whats funny is all those are just ge vehicles

theres still the vehicle packs

[sullen latch]

Nope just the Russian stuff 🤣

[sullen latch]

If the British overlord pack goes on sale i might scoop it up 👀

That pack is right around the BR im working on in the Brit tree

I really dont need the US pack 😂

But like... 2nd M18

[robust shale]

Poland map

very detailed now

huh

@sullen latch @ivory moss @midnight ermine gun sounds changed again

significantly

[sullen latch]

Ugh

Can they just not?

[robust shale]

MGs too

this is interesting

I'll show in a sec

but I like it actually

sounds more real LMAO

@sullen latch

here

120mm different sound

I wonder waht the 155 sounds liek

[robust shale]

I think they made OP easier?

the T-72 in testing is able to OP

more easily

[cosmic dragon]

I like it

[cosmic dragon]

uhh

[robust shale]

[ivory moss]

Yeah it sucks

Literally building

Gaijin give us a half decent event vehicle: impossible

[robust shale]

ridiculous fucking abrams

I kill loader and he outloads me when I have loader

[robust shale]

interesting.. @ivory moss @sullen latch @midnight ermine the version of FSR in War Thunder was upgraded to FSR4

didn't realize it was already that

[ivory moss]

damn

[cosmic dragon]

Not like I can use FSR4 anyway

[robust shale]

@ivory moss I just saw a russian top tier SPAA shoot down its own teammate

Like how

ususlaly in the new SPAA you can't lock your own teammates

I've tried so many times

and you can't lock on your own

[robust shale]

fucking helis

Gaijin really needs to fucking fix helis

the IR jamming is utter bs

it should not be able to just be a perfect sphere of protection that's not how it works

[ivory moss]

smh

the equivalent of getting killed by friendly arty

[cosmic dragon]

Gaijin should add the K9 Thunder

[cosmic dragon]

Nevermind, they already have lol

It's the VIDAR

[robust shale]

@ivory moss @sullen latch @midnight ermine

Ah

[ivory moss]

bruh

[midnight ermine]

lol

[robust shale]

hmm

I think OP is very different

a lot easier now

@sullen latch

I swear they made OP a lot easier

[robust shale]

[cosmic dragon]

Ew navy

[midnight ermine]

The amount of those new USA tanks is crazy

That reload speed is nuts

[robust shale]

The T58 turret itself is quite strong but the hull is a typical m48 Patton series shit chassis

Sabot cuts clean through the hull

HEAT-FS as well

T58 is what 8.3?

I see it in full down tiers when I play my 9.3 lineup

[cosmic dragon]

@west yoke here's my lineup

[west yoke]

Leopard goes pew

[cosmic dragon]

Yeah

They're all also 105mm guns all with APFSDS

[west yoke]

What abotu BESH

[cosmic dragon]

Leopard 1A5 and M48A2 G A2 has them

[west yoke]

Only reason i know about BESH is cause of Russian Badger.

[cosmic dragon]

I was wrong, TAM gets it too

HESH is a shaped charge. I should really equip it on my tanks

[robust shale]

I was so close to a nuke less then 300 SP off a nuke

[west yoke]

@cosmic dragon

[robust shale]

@sullen latch @ivory moss @midnight ermine apparently the Abrams LFP is still weak enough I can punch clean through @ ~700m

[sullen latch]

sounds about right lmfao

[robust shale]

though normally at the angle I hit it

the thickness surpasses the DM33 armor pen

guess not

[sullen latch]

lol

gaijin logic

[robust shale]

the new audio is so clean

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1274581809992044658/1422077596895678534/War_Thunder_-_2025-09-28_9-28-28_PM.mp4?ex=68db5c78&is=68da0af8&hm=fb25c693faf10f5cb1029b572f0b1e184bee3c0b6f6686cb52786ccb3a985079&

the audio of the BMPs are so good

[robust shale]

lmao

I just encountered the most stupid American main Abrams

He shot me 5 times with APFSDS and didn't hurt my crew

I'm a huge ass truck

[ivory moss]

lmao

[cosmic dragon]

I absolutely LOVE the new sounds

[cosmic dragon]

The CORECT way to play Germany

[cosmic dragon]

@ivory moss what does this mean

@midnight ermine new body pillow

[ivory moss]

No clue tbh

[cosmic dragon]

Servers borked apparently

Works fine now

[ivory moss]

Interesting

Ill log on now

apparently i have no wt friends

[cosmic dragon]

oh yeah @ivory moss @midnight ermine gepard acquired

And yes, I put eyes on it

EVERY tank gets eyes

[ivory moss]

noiceee

[cosmic dragon]

It's great when I have a clear shot on a T-72 but the turret fuckin eats the round

I thought medal would've recorded that whole session but I guess not

@ivory moss is my aim shit or did the T-72 eat the round

I'd also like to point out that the crosshair was GREEN indicating it's a penetrative shot

[ivory moss]

nah the t72 is like that

can confirm its a beast

[cosmic dragon]

I got pissed off at that that I slammed my keyboard, sent half of the keys flying, and now I can't find my page down key

[ivory moss]

bruh lol

[cosmic dragon]

I had a CLEAR FUCKING SHOT and goddamn stalinium ate my round

So you see why I'm pissed

[ivory moss]

this is why i main ussr lol

[cosmic dragon]

I have superior APFSDS though since NATO nation

[robust shale]

this soviet

[midnight ermine]

Www

[midnight ermine]

Isn’t this the Chinese one?

[cosmic dragon]

Yes

[midnight ermine]

I think I got it

I’m just missing the Japan one

[robust shale]

https://youtu.be/ksTie0TSEd8?si=GQezwnofQCzzcv9c

Fucking Gaijin

[west yoke]

I got the USS Maaarylannnd
@cosmic dragon

[cosmic dragon]

Nice

[west yoke]

Also got a couple other packs

And shes decorated

[west yoke]

First match with her and i got connedtion errored -_-

[sullen latch]

Thats what you get for feeding the snail your money 😂

[west yoke]

Does this thing have ANY form of armament or what

[robust shale]

no

no flares

only 2 offensive ground munitions

[sullen latch]

Its just a stealth plane

Thats bad at stealth bcz Gaijin nerf

[robust shale]

it's a plane

that's it

[west yoke]

So a worthless plane?

[robust shale]

pretty much

[west yoke]

Tried to land on an aircraft carrier.
I misjudged my timing and i flew into the back of it.

@sullen latch @ivory moss @midnight ermine Gaijin when moment

[ivory moss]

damnnn

[sullen latch]

Not anytime soon probably

[cosmic dragon]

Samsung/Hyundai made tank btw

[cosmic dragon]

Just spent two minutes in my Gepard spamming "requesting repairs" until somebody decided to repair me

I did as an SPAA should lol

[ivory moss]

Ya do know you can go to a capped point and repair lol

[cosmic dragon]

Not when my engine is dead I can't

[ivory moss]

Fair enough

[cosmic dragon]

And can't do that in arcade

[ivory moss]

You can

I do it all the time

[cosmic dragon]

I know you can't replenish crew in arcade

[ivory moss]

yeah that doesnt work but repairs do

[sullen latch]

You 100% can

[cosmic dragon]

I'm aware of that now

[sullen latch]

Are you tho?

[robust shale]

[robust shale]

bagel strong

[robust shale]

@ivory moss Gaijin Physics

bouncy ass shells

[midnight ermine]

Ooo 50% sale for China

Www

[cosmic dragon]

I'm waiting for the Maus

[sullen latch]

for the like 50 chinese tech tree users? 🤣

[cosmic dragon]

Seeing as I have two ranks left in the German tree, what nation should I research next?

[sullen latch]

China

[cosmic dragon]

I was thinking Russia

[midnight ermine]

Woah!

[robust shale]

for like all the china people who complain about the game

bias

[robust shale]

@midnight ermine the amount of ammo I hgad to use on 1 guy

I used up like half of my ammo storage

[cosmic dragon]

I really need the APDS for the Gepard

The amount of time I could've one shot somebody with it is insane

[midnight ermine]

Www

That’s why I got the turms

[midnight ermine]

Ehhh

Only 30 rounds of it

I only had very specific uses for it haha

[cosmic dragon]

The HE of the Gepard absolutely tears through light tanks

I meant the medium tanks

[robust shale]

Bruh

[ivory moss]

Hows that even make sense lol

[ivory moss]

welp time to grind for obj775

[sullen latch]

Magic ig lmao

[cosmic dragon]

is that the flat one?

it is

[robust shale]

World War

[ivory moss]

wide putin tank

[cosmic dragon]

https://tenor.com/view/wide-vladimir-putin-russian-walking-gif-17506944

it looks goofy

[cosmic dragon]

5 tank kills and one was in a Gepard lmao

[ivory moss]

for some reason i can never get above 4 kills in the gepard

[robust shale]

ngl it's easier then ever atm

cause of the APHE issue

also damn I'm some how seeing war thunder play at 260FPS and higher at 4k max no upscale

[cosmic dragon]

I get that at 1440p

[robust shale]

nothing left to research in Rank 7 and 8

Guess I go back and research the stuff I skipped

[ivory moss]

bet half of the enemy team was scolling through tiktok while playing

[cosmic dragon]

Well the they certainly weren't paying attention

Now I know why the T-72 tanked a tungsten dart to the turret

[ivory moss]

yeah its literally stalinium

[robust shale]

@ivory moss you ever just survive 5x 1000lb bombs on the hull of a tank

and just sit there in all the soot

[ivory moss]

Yeah lol

Cant see anything

I die more to those stupid 500 and 250lb cluster bombs

20 of them dropped everywhere

[robust shale]

good game good game

totally didn't camp their spawn with a TAM + Drone

[midnight ermine]

Hmm

I was going to get all but 1 of the ge premiums China has for 50% off rn

But I think I’m just going to get the Al-khalid pack for rn and get those other tanks later in the month when the 50% off for all tanks and ge go on sale

That way I can get them cheaper

[robust shale]

@midnight ermine BF6 VEHICLES

Like. Yes the word Gepard in German is translated to Cheetah

But like man

They could've just called it the Gepard

[sullen latch]

Depends on copyright usage and if they could get the rights to it?

[robust shale]

I mean the Leopard 2a4 is just Leopard 2a4 the Swiss light tanks CVS are called by their accurate names

The Abrams is well Abrams

Only the Gepard is not the actual name(technically)

[sullen latch]

Who knows then 😂

[cosmic dragon]

Well not many people know that Gepard is Cheetah in German

[robust shale]

there I did my job for once

@ivory moss @sullen latch @midnight ermine somethings missing here isn't it

I was like. wait. didn't I queue for RB

why do I not see my SP costs for my tanks

[ivory moss]

well atleast you now dont know if youve been uptiered or downtiered

[robust shale]

it was a down tier

[robust shale]

Apparently the 50cal(12.7mm) on the t72 can side pen a Gepard(or equivalent) turret

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[ivory moss]

Weird lol

[robust shale]

@ivory moss

What's funny is

I had lost my gunner

so commander was switching spots

so literally I had a quick gap in the time i could use the HMG then couldn't

[ivory moss]

Lol

That guy must be fuming

[robust shale]

@ivory moss lmao I got revenge CASedc

not a very happy Japanese main

[ivory moss]

lmao

[robust shale]

yea chat wasn't happy

I just rolled around the map and just blitzed it

the bagel is quite fun

[cosmic dragon]

Who the hell brings a jadtiger to an 8.0+ match?

And somehow a tungsten dart with 421mm of pen didn't do anything

[robust shale]

@ivory moss what am I doing mannn

HAHAHAAH

@midnight ermine @ivory moss I ratted the heli so hard

and then in the same match before the clip above

[ivory moss]

how much time did you spend flying there lol

[robust shale]

Maybe like a minute and a half

I chased him all the way to his heli spawn

Loiter around as I wait for him to repair

[ivory moss]

lol

[robust shale]

First part of the match I did the heli dirty

See it in my drone debating if I wanna ram it

Switch back to bagel launch 3 HE shells

And done

Too easy

[west yoke]

Whoes farming for the EFV?

[robust shale]

trash event vehicle

barn yard size IFV only gets a 30mm bush

especially at 9.3? that thing is gonna suck

[west yoke]

But it float

[cosmic dragon]

I'm trying to farm for the KPz-70

[robust shale]

good. i'll sink it to the bottom of the sea

[cosmic dragon]

German MBT-70

[robust shale]

not many maps even have routes for water

[west yoke]

Its the fastest amphib vehicle

[robust shale]

at 9.3 especially you don't often see water

and if you do it's so shallow

[west yoke]

But it go pew

[robust shale]

as does the chadley

as does the frenchie VBCI and VBCI-2

[west yoke]

IT GO PEW

[robust shale]

no

[west yoke]

If you evel it up, it can use M258 which is a APFSDS

[robust shale]

the VBCI-2 uses the same one

French Premium tech tree

[west yoke]

But i main MURICA

[robust shale]

M3A3 Chadley

[cosmic dragon]

Hawk and I main Germany

[robust shale]

TOW ATGMs
25mm auto cannon with a minimal difference in pen

thermals

Radar/IRST lock on

[cosmic dragon]

I wanna get the Begleitpanzer for Germany

[robust shale]

at 9.3 it's a horrible vehicle. it has nothing going for it

hell you'd face off gepards in a down tier and up tier

gepards sit at 8.3 and 9.7

you'd be facing SPAAs with better guns that'll just annihilate it

[cosmic dragon]

@ivory moss is the Begleitpanzer 57 before or after the KPz-70?

In the tech tree

I am not at home to check

[west yoke]

I still can't fly helis

[ivory moss]

Different tree

Bagle is light tank tree

[robust shale]

bagel

57mm go thunk thunk

[cosmic dragon]

I know but is it next to the KPz-70?

[ivory moss]

Lemme check. Gonna log on now

But its a higher br

[robust shale]

[cosmic dragon]

Hawk found it

[robust shale]

typical gaijin

[robust shale]

wtf

[sullen latch]

Which one?

Jutland?

[robust shale]

bottom of the pacific

also bagel wack

the amount of armor in one spot is crazy

like damn

the breach of the bagel is stupid thick

150mm alone

[robust shale]

Russian tank gut

literally got swarmed by like 5 SPAA on one point alone

thank god I load HE with my T-72 at times

[cosmic dragon]

Yep

[ivory moss]

Lmao

[cosmic dragon]

Is it wrong though? Lol

[cosmic dragon]

I got merked by a 1000lb bomb that landed WAY beh- nevermind I just looked at where it landed

If I can't kill tanks, I'll kill planes instead

[cosmic dragon]

@ivory moss Hell yeah

[ivory moss]

Rare footage of a gepard actually shooting down aircraft

[ivory moss]

Coooool

[robust shale]

imagine using a gepard for SPAA duty

couldn't be me

[cosmic dragon]

Real

I have the SPAA

Imma use it as such

[robust shale]

imagine needing an SPAA to take out a plane

[cosmic dragon]

https://youtu.be/9Xds4spko0Y?si=xGQXh-AlA77UUSJ6

I saw a post on a WT Facebook group about this

[cosmic dragon]

Wiesel sandwiched between your tank and whatever that other one is

[cosmic dragon]

Something based on the Marder IFV chassis

Don't know exactly what

[robust shale]

https://tenor.com/view/friend-war-thunder-war-thunder-war-thunder-friend-gif-25844324

here's the gif

[cosmic dragon]

It is the Bagel

[robust shale]

oh no

[sullen latch]

we really dont need anymore

[ivory moss]

M109 is a 12.7mm machine gun magnet

[cosmic dragon]

Paper armour moment

[robust shale]

BAGEL THE SUPERIOR SPAA

omg

@ivory moss

ATTACK THE D POINT

[cosmic dragon]

Hmm

[robust shale]

Bagel the superior SPAA

[cosmic dragon]

I need to stop rushing in the Gepard

At least until I get the APDS

Enemy team just deleted

Two more things to go before the 1A5 is spaded

[ivory moss]

[robust shale]

Steam built in replay

Is goated

Doesn't fuck up like AMD ReLive does

And background records 2hr without impact

[cosmic dragon]

That's where my clips come from

I also use Medal now

@ivory moss you do repair faster on the point in Arcade

[ivory moss]

Ye

[cosmic dragon]

what the

I don't even have upscaling on

I have SSAA off

Everything is maxed out

[cosmic dragon]

@west yoke

[cosmic dragon]

Found you already

[west yoke]

Sweet, we can play when its not almos 2 AM and i got work in the morning lmao

[cosmic dragon]

I'm off tomorrow lmao

[west yoke]

BUt not this weekend cause its BF6 RELEASE WEEKEND

[cosmic dragon]

Time to go kill some noobs

[west yoke]

Seal clubbing was fun lmao

Going from Rank 6 to almost 7 down to 1 and just smacking people is funny

[cosmic dragon]

Imagine if you can take high tier vehicles into low tier matches lmao

Just instantly delete everyone

Interesting

[cosmic dragon]

Its like it's saying "yay!"

I am slowly losing it lmao

[ivory moss]

lol

[cosmic dragon]

Vietnam has to be one of the WORST designed maps in existence

[robust shale]

@ivory moss 2.1km kills with PzH2000

just lobbing HE into spawns

Hehh

[cosmic dragon]

Hell yeah

Leo 1A5 spaded

[ivory moss]

Thats just plain evil lol

[cosmic dragon]

KPz-70 researched. Skipped the M48 Super and went to the T-72M1

[robust shale]

I have clips

but Steam is being wonky

@ivory moss Bagel superior SPAA. killed 2 planes trying to bomb me by blowing up their own bombs with HE

dam I think I need to carry more HE-VT

Ow

[cosmic dragon]

Damn

[robust shale]

Gaijin you mfffff

[cosmic dragon]

Rip

@ivory moss would you say I'm getting better?

[zealous hull]

gimme Tylenol

for reasons

[zealous hull]

I had a (1) once

[cosmic dragon]

I have too

Also I just found a tutorial to change the kill message that comes up on screen

Imma change the ground one to Ziel Zerstört

[robust shale]

Multiple times on my side

[ivory moss]

I hate it when they kill you in the plane and get all your bombs

[robust shale]

HE does wonders for that

[ivory moss]

Oh yeah for sure

[cosmic dragon]

Ignoring the fact I had the KPz-70 out for a total of 90 seconds then immediately died

I dislike HE

[robust shale]

Also HE-VT on bagel is a little different from most variable timer

It acts more like a PF then a VT

It's also funny

The HE-VT has better muzzle velocity then the APCBC

But drops off faster

[ivory moss]

Interesting

Bruh istg i hate the xm246

Gets my cupola and crew is toast

[robust shale]

Xm246 is broken broken

It can shoot a Leopard 2a5 model or newer on the cheese wedge cheeks

And OP the entire crew

[ivory moss]

Its not like the gepard where the cannons are spaced out, makes it harder to get a clean shot in close combat

[robust shale]

Like

It'll hit the front edge of my cheese wedge armor

Detonate

And then I just evaporate on the spot

[cosmic dragon]

Why does the T-72M1 have three different APFSDS rounds?

[ivory moss]

The 246 doesnt even have apds

Just the stupid ass buggy round

[cosmic dragon]

3BM9, 3BM15, and 3BM22

[ivory moss]

Different purposes, sloped armor, flat etc

I just pick the one with the biggest numbers lmao

[robust shale]

Dont

Just use HE

Wait

That technically has the bigger number

[ivory moss]

Or heat tbh

[robust shale]

Shit

[cosmic dragon]

And two HE rounds

I prefer APFSDS

I did a test drive of it

The fuckin sound of the cannon is satisfying

[ivory moss]

Xm/kpz70 are annoying tanks

Just straight up they get your gunner and spend the next 5 mins picking off your crew one by one

[cosmic dragon]

I've been killed by both lol

[robust shale]

Commander override

[cosmic dragon]

At that point just J out

[ivory moss]

Dawg i main ussr 😭

[robust shale]

What's the more torture is the swedish cheese

1 crew? Not a problem

[ivory moss]

The commander doesn’t override, he just drinks copious amounts of vodka

[robust shale]

You can drive, shoot, reload with 1 crew

[ivory moss]

Swede cheese gameplay: get to battlefield, get shot, repair, repair, repair, die

[robust shale]

Abrams: IM INVINCIBLE

Gets LFPed

Abrams: HACKS

[ivory moss]

Urghhh xm1 players

Sends a chill down my spine

[robust shale]

XM1

Shell kinda sucks for the xm1

[cosmic dragon]

I've pissed off many XM1 players with the Leopard 1A5

[ivory moss]

Xm1 is decent but players not so much

[robust shale]

Typical American mains

[ivory moss]

Share the same braincell

Shoot tanks ❌ look at the sky and mg planes ✅

[robust shale]

Me: bagel

Me see enemy scout it

In scout drone. Hmmmmm I hear plane

Switches to HE: I am the better spaa

Also Bagel: has almost 2.5k mm of armor thickness on the gun breach

How? Idk

Make it make sense

[cosmic dragon]

Hilarious that I do better anti air than the people that actually play anti air

[cosmic dragon]

Historically accurate Apache

[cosmic dragon]

I just changed tech trees. What

[cosmic dragon]

I JUST spawned in...

[robust shale]

L Abrams get LFPed

[cosmic dragon]

Me: fires HEAT at other MBT-70
HEAT: does absolutely fucking nothing
Other MBT-70: deletes me with weak ass APFSDS

[cosmic dragon]

Small rant:

[ivory moss]

heat is just buggy

does stuff one time doesnt the other

just use apfsds

[robust shale]

APFSDS superior

HEAT slow as fuck

[cosmic dragon]

That's what I'm researching now

Only HEAT round I'll use is HEAT-FS

Or regular HE

[zealous hull]

Imagine having those

HE AP APBC

[frozen aurora]

[cosmic dragon]

Another WT player? 👀

[frozen aurora]

yes

Since 2014

[robust shale]

mmmmm APFSDS through the canopy

[cosmic dragon]

WT looked A LOT different 11 years ago, damn

[cosmic dragon]

@midnight ermine I saw you get on WT

[midnight ermine]

👀

Got on to claim daily and activate my booster

I forgot to do 2 of my boosters yesterday and I lost 2 50% for 10 missions

[robust shale]

Russian bias

[frozen aurora]

I think it went through the vertical stabilizer, that's why it was a critical hit at first

[cosmic dragon]

Apparently tanks get bombs now?

[robust shale]

It was a severe damage

Either way they weren't gonna live

Way too steep of an entry for gun run

https://youtu.be/5Nl0Di57e6k?si=LNEj8i5C0Os1sR2O

Ah shit

Because of BF6 I missed my login streak

186 days straight just gone like that

[robust shale]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVtOcwanWfM

@sullen latch here we go

[robust shale]

@sullen latch like it works if I use the old replay from the background

but I can't actively slip things

a little odd

[cosmic dragon]

I DIDN'T LOSE IT

[midnight ermine]

Nice

I was worried I’d lose mine cuz of my rusting

Spent like 70 hrs playing rust this past week

[cosmic dragon]

BF6 for me

[cosmic dragon]

Uh

[proven shale]

WT!!!??

[robust shale]

Huhh

https://www.kkinstagram.com/reel/DPyoOrWjYpx

South Korea as a brand new tech tree

Huh.

@sullen latch @midnight ermine @ivory moss

SK as an entirely new tree

Not even a sub tree

It's own tree

And North Korea

So that means Soviet and American Cold War tanks

[sullen latch]

Neat lol

More copy pasta tanks

[robust shale]

MBTs will be more unique

The K1 and K2s

Artillery basically just copy pasta K9

Not sure what else could be used

[proven shale]

@robust shale israel is gettin greec & cyprus tree

[robust shale]

That just means Leopards for Israel

[proven shale]

China is gettin new domestic stuff and pakistani
