1v1 me then if you say no @wise moth
bruh.
Bruh, 1v1’s literally don’t mean anything @brittle lance
Is5 better it costs less gold boom
And is better still in terms of gameplay too boom
@brittle lance Alright fine, what server are you?
is this a real tank
And? What’s ur point?
@nocturne tiger No, but it looks like a prototype drawing of one of the original tanks
I have about 10 of them.
@brittle lance Ok, I put up a room called 1v1
1.4k battles and he is a pro in 1v1 KEKW
I have about 10 of them.
@brittle lance
Is that also talking about the number of reroll accounts u have? Lol jk
No
@brittle lance You gonna 1v1 me or not? I have a room up
This is my first account. And yes. My account name is Comet_277
I wish I was on NA so I could see this 😢
Ok wait for me. Lemme switch onto my NA from Eu to see lol @wise moth
I wish I was on NA so I could see this 😢
@thick trout same Kekw
I'm bad at 1v1's, but I'm just curious since i haven't seen an actual T-2020 before lol
Then you'll probably lose
@wise moth There's bad at 1v1s and then there's bad at 1v1s for a superuni lmao don't give him hope
@brittle lance shut up pls
Then you'll probably lose
@brittle lance
Lmao ur so confident. Let’s see when u lose
And i just won
Its pretty good ngl
@brittle lance watch anime
@brittle lance Let's go again
Mk
Winning one battle doesn’t mean anything
Honestly
@wise moth Lol rip
1:1
I'm still trash tho
@lean hazel IS-5
And I hate the IS-5 too
Lool I don’t
mk
I won so many battles in the is5
Got a question: wz121 or m46 patton?
Score? @wise moth
Wz121?
121
@solid trench Tier 9 against a tier x? That’s hardly fair lol
Sry....wz121 vs m48 patton
Still 121
👍
Leopard is still a good medium right?
@lean hazel 4:1 my favor
Your camping cap tho
@brittle lance then push him smh
hahaha as I suspected. Hard man trying to challenge someone to a 1vs1 and saying they will win but then losing 4-1. I feel sorry for them @wise moth
lol
He prbably be sitting in a training rooms beating like 30 percent nubs and now he think he pro at 1vs1 lol. Then proceeds to lose to an actual decent player
Dude
I've learned my lesson after the 1st match. If I can't win in a facehug, I'm just going to use my brain instead
👏
And once again, 1v1's are completely meaningless
Stop camping your high ground. thats all youve done
That’s the difference between a 30% player and decent one
@brittle lance I literally jumped off the high ground that game...
In the end you got on it again
Someone is hella salty and be looking for excuses lol
Unless you're complaining about me backing up onto a slope to gain more gun depression. I'm going to keep doing that because it's the only way I can gurantee I can pen you
Yeah. That mean that this tank is highly better bc you cant pen
In a facehug....
wanna do a sniper battle in it?
Hahaha a sniper battle. This guy mental
If you lost you lost, if you cant force the enemy to fight on the terms you want then its not a valid way of fighting.
That's the truth right there
I mean
As Positive said 1v1s mean nothing except for peoples ego 🤷♀️
The only reason I can't pen you in a facehug is because IS-5 doesn't have the gun depression to hit your hull, so I can only hit your turret @brittle lance
What was the IS-5 fighting?
2020
ah yes, the tank with a stock ST-I turret
It isn't. I've penned you in every sidescrape except one
I never sidescrape because it's just asking to get yourself penned for no reason
Only tank I sidescrape in is the Maus
You cant face hug me, and thats what a is tank is for. And you have to have the high ground to win.
@brittle lance It has 80mm on the side with no extremely angled segments but the IS5 has 80/120 as well as the extreme angled part.
If you think tanks are only for facehugging then you need help
IS tanks are about the turret armor and speed. Facehugging ability is nice, but it's not necessary, and if I were in a non IS tank, I could probably pen you in a facehug @brittle lance
T-2020 is absolutely useless in a face hug vs any tank with any decent depression.
Not really
@brittle lance Here, I have a T32. Facehug me, and lets find out what happens.
Any tank without HEAT prammo is going to go through your turret like butter, and that's assuming they don't have decent AP pen @brittle lance
I can beat a is6 and is5 when face hugging
So, both of those are mediocre tanks
And a lowe sometimes
Lowe if the player is any good would crush a T-2020.
hey- im just wondering if i should get the PZIV or the hetzer- im an agressive support sniper soooo idk
@brittle lance Yeah, I crashed
@brittle lance Exit if you haven't managed to already
10/10 update WG
That happended with me
@solid gate I would Say Pz. IV, the whole E 100 line is great right now
I came back and I was like "how am I not dead" lol
Wotb servers have been acting up. Yesterday games were forzen. and today is crashes
ive been very surprised with pz line, its a very fun tank.. i just heard on the forums in the beginning the PZ IV is hard
I thought it was unfair to kill a afk player in a 1v1
Stock Pz. IV isn't that bad nowadays, back in 2016 and before yeah
but the hetzer doesnt seem that much better with the huge speed loss
alright ill go for it, on a separate note i hope people dont downvote me when i accidentally run into them in the game
Hetzer isn't in a good spot right now, the Jadgpanzer E 100 is ok right now and the grille 15 is just bad, so I would advise you to wait on the German Tank Destroyers
What tank you drive wont get you downvoted..
whats the best country you think?
after i recently got my t54 ltwt, it feels like it's not that armored and i cant take advantage of the hull down, it's really sluggish the dpm is pretty trash, the turret can easily be penned. I really need help on this one
im done now
@brittle lance Welp, in a strange turn of events, it looks like you're the one who can't pen me in a facehug in a T32 😆
@solid gate There is no "best" country, there are strong lines and the T10 meta does shift around.
@untold dirge it’s still a light tank so don’t rely on the armor. Hull down is not the best strategy, the gun, turret armor, and gun depression is not good enough for it
Yeah the armor is troll on t32. But still face hugging t2020 is pretty good
so, is there any specific playstyle that i have to play with while using the t54 ltwt?
Quite sure T-2020 lacks the armour to face hug any tank with more than 6 depression.
What should i do with this?
I'm just not familiar enough with the turret armor profile yet @brittle lance
The cheeks are pennable, but it's hard to tell where they are because of the spaced armor, but I'll learn in time
@brittle lance Buy a Maus. Maaaauuuuuussssss
Yeah shoot my gun mantle, or to the right or left
@untold dirge bully meds/lights. You have above average alpha and armor to compete with them, then use speed to flank the rest because your gun is not good enough to fight them straight up
@untold dirge you should be playing as a medium tank support because you have the alpha for it.
The armor is still good on T-54 Lightweight, but you shouldn't depend on it
im confused, should i be playing as an agressive light tank with a mix of med playstyle or should i play it like a traditional light tank (spotting, supporting team)?
im so glad that this game ranks teammates based on damage over kills because i dont care when people finish off tanks for me, and i enjoy support more now
@untold dirge Play it like a light tank with a bad gun. And don't believe anyone who says your armor is good. It's not
You should be filling the scout role normally, but in combat you should be a support to your medium tanks against mediums and lights
@untold dirge Its a light tank bully and a support vs any other type of tank.
@untold dirge aggressive light, but you can really do both. You have the camo and speed to flank/scout but you also have decent alpha and armor to fight meds.
okay, thanks for all the replies i feel like i can conquer the world now
Just laugh it off whenever you get a bounce. They will happen often just can't rely on them
Bouncing gets reds super angry
Lol good luck out there
thanks i'll do my best
does this game get harder once you get to like the IVth edition of tanks?
?
am i going to have to learn strategy? cause i really dont wanna do that, i just wanna stay in the back with my and my rocks and bushes and hit tanks
It gets slightly more difficult when you go up any tier. If you like playing like that you should stay below t5 it sounds like @solid gate
yeah i like that i can control my difficulty based on what tank i choose to play with
You are going to face way stronger tanks and smarter (sometimes) opponents. It needs a lot more thinking imo. I still don’t enjoy lower tiers. I prefer playing T7-10
@hollow belfry t6 is pretty good too
It is way less frustrating and you can easily carry there
And bad teammates don't affect the result that much
I personally love spamming the y5 firefly in that tier
After a losing streak in the e50 i switched to playing leopta and y5 firefly(mostly)
I really like t6. Maybe it is stat padding but it is really balanced and enjoyable
Might rebuy a few T6s for fun. Been mostly in T7 these days, refining my Tiger I stats.
i feel like at the early stage batte awareness from everyone is non existent, because id just be all the way on the left of enemy tanks and hit their soft spots (usually the tracks or the side of their cannon thing) and they won't react whatsoever
almost like tunnel vision
k
It's normal. At lower tiers you will meet very few experienced players.
Excelsior is now cheeper than the special packet...
I'd probably like the Excelsior to have more side armor
It literally has over 3 times more armor at the rear than at the sides
Few people load prammo in that tier so your front is fine and very usable
if i sell a tank with a rare camo would the camo be lost?
Could we add the ZiS-30?
@neat nimbus no
i meant a tech tree tank
@neat nimbus tanks retain camos that were unlocked even if you sell them
I just got the e25 and completely rekt a full health t29 all by myself
E25 is a great tank
Yes it is also hard to play
The speed is hilarious, I love chasing lights in it. Excellent camo aswell.
Yes
I’ll probably get it next time it’s sold.
I have played it on pc though.. 😆
Another tank I love is the Pz 4/5 tier 5
A lot of the mid tier German tanks are quite nice to play
what about the stridvagn 74a2
I should rebuy my Panther. Already having loads of fun in the Jagdpanther and Tiger I.
Yes I have strv 74a2 it has amazing dpm
Panther is my favourite tier 7, even before it was buffed. Also think it’s one of the best looking tanks in the game and historically. Going from it to the panther II was a bit disappointing
is a worth get the is 6 or the buff is almost null
Only thing is the tank before the panther is bad and hard to grind
The buff is a bit insignificant to the is6. The turret roof is still a disaster on that tank
E25 is a mosquito. It's so annoying
i think im fine for now with the t-34-3 and the heavy t34, lowe, fcm 50 t
Both guns are pretty bad and the mobility is kind of mediocre seeing it's armor and gun@tulip edge
If you have a t34 and Lowe, then you are in a great spot for tier 8 @neat nimbus
Hopefully a day left and I'll get my Pantera. Those discounts are coming right on time
I personally would recommend you save your gold unless you really like the t34, play it a lot and really want the attachment.
Also hello fellow Spanish speaker
The attachment is just a useless cosmetic
You are wasting your gold
well camo doesnt help in snow maps does it?
Camo works in all maps
The normal camos are specific to each type of environment. If you buy special camos they are universal to all maps
then i have two real warrior certificates
Also, how come you load so much HE
I have no idea what that camo is, but if there is a certificate for it then I am certain it’s universal and you can apply it to all 3 camo slots for the environments
@tulip edge this camo you obtain after 30 victories in realistic mode
Yes it works in all environments
i have crimson fury but i reserve that one for other tier 8
Rad, any camo that you see in that section of that picture you sent is universal to all environments.
If you scroll to the bottom of the camos to the normal, cheap ones, you will notice that those camos change with each different environment
How is the churchill mark 4 holding up (premium tank)
If i didn't mess up the name
does this tank have good camo masking?
Yes
Generally low profile and small light tanks have good camo
because that crimson fury camo is going to be on that tank once i get it
Worth it for credit grind?
not really imo. the tank is fairly powercrept
i like the resolute camo for the action X
I prefer the morpho camo but I like the resolute name more
Is based on something the resolute camo?
Idk
Looks too post war to me
How do i use this tank?
Side scrape
Use your amazing gun
Dont go headon targets
And also you can fairly hulldown in it
well lets say its not the best at ss but that front plate is super troll and same story with the turret
Ok the 20 pounders should have 215 alpha per shot. That puts them at 5 less than the Panther II’s 88mm and 10 less than the 90mm guns. Also realistically the 75mm guns should have 5 less alpha than 76(.2)mm guns which have 5 less than any 77mm guns. It would work. My system anyway.
The jg e 100 needs a special camo, change my mind
@bleak abyss What camo would you give it? Nothing too outlandish please.
@solid gate @bleak abyss what about something like this (but for the jg e 100 obviously)
Sorry for the cruddy picture, google sucks
@supple coyote Hmmmm. I’m not sure. Hard to imagine.
Maybe that’s a good legendary panther 1 camo 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Maybe
Idk, that’s just a historically accurate camo, which I personally think are dope as hell and way cooler than the fake looking ones
Well it might work on Panther but on StuG E 100 I’m not too sure.
This is a cool look
Without the thing over the tracks it looks ugly
Ah yeah that’s just a model on eBay lmao
I’m sure it’s supposed to based on a prototype or something
That’s the Jageru right?
Guys. Is the Pantera ann. worth keeping?
it is up to you. good tank but if you need the gold go ahead and sell it. I am keeping it because I don't need gold right now, and I like how it looks.
Yes, it's a solid tank for tier VI. Of course it isn't going to be OP like other premium/collector tanks, but it is a good tank. I would also recommend keeping it, because this is the only chance you get to have it (a 6 year b day only comes once). I average 2k+ dmg in it but I guess keeping it and using it depends on your playstyle.
it is up to you. good tank but if you need the gold go ahead and sell it. I am keeping it because I don't need gold right now, and I like how it looks.
Same for me, I see no point selling it before you need the gold, it will also help stop me from spending gold randomly.
Why do different tanks have different numbers and fonts on the upgrade section?
Please @ me if you know 🙂
What equipment do you guys run on the T-62A
@solid gate like how ?
Check the font, 1 is blue, some are silver and all of them have different numbers under the upgrade
Or is it just preference
Blue means collector tanks
Gold Premium
The silver ones are regular tech tree tanks
@steel bear i'm using on my type59
I.L,L,L
II.L,R,R
III.L,L,R
yeah hull armor kind a work tho
But i'm always try to be in front side on the battle so i dont need shell velocity
@solid gate the blue font is a collector tank silvers are normal tech tree tanks
Ty
Also p44 is a different model than p43 not an upgrade
True
Also p44 is a different model than p43 not an upgrade
@solid gate
Did I say it wasn’t?
What you said earlier seems to imply that unless your talking about the Tier/Roman numerals
Or opening the upgrade tabs and seeing the tanks full name
Nah, I just meant each tank I look under had different numbers underneath it
Yea that is your xp amount
I learnt today that the 149000 credit I have on my leopard can’t be used to help me get a progetto 65 😦
Sad 😔
y5 ELC or Firefly is it worth it ?
Nope
should i wait for smth better than those available in general? (i have some gold)
Yeah save up for something better
^^^thats a lie don’t buy it
I have fully upgraded this tank, and have invested into crew skill (I can’t invest anymore because it says I have 0 credits to give). What do I do with these upgrade credits? I heard you can’t use them on other tanks. Also it didn’t change the amount of credits i have to upgrade when I invested into the crew skills.
@solid gate How do you not have the Player(s) “role” too?
They just build up you can’t spend them on anything else @solid gate if you have gold you can convert the exp that builds up on all your tanks to free exp
Ah Ah 😦. I have 149k credits on my tier 5 leopard XD 🔫
I'm tempted to sell my P.43 collecter to boost along my progress to the VK 100.01. And i don't mean outright converting the gold to silver, maybe buying a premium like the Excelsior with it. Is that a good idea?
No
Well it is worth 1200 gold but I wouldn’t spend a portion of that on a T5 since I personally don’t play T5 anymore
@sharp spindle Not necessarily.
I hate the excelsior
Excelsior is better since the buff. I wonder if they buffed the traverse or something too. It actually does seem faster than it used to be.
Doesn't it have more rear than side armour?
@sharp spindle That doesn’t mean anything.
I am quite tempted to sell the P.43 for the VK.
They just build up you can’t spend them on anything else @solid gate if you have gold you can convert the exp that builds up on all your tanks to free exp
@solid gate whyyyyyyy. Why :(. I’m so close to a progetto 65 and I can’t afford it, but I have all these useless credits on other tanks?!?
Having more rear armor than side armor is not a good thing in my opinion. Sides are longer than the rear to an extent and having weak sides is just bad.
But I am only 400k-300k credits away from the 100.01.
@solid gate You don’t earn credits on tanks. That’s combat XP. Credits go in a pool not on individual tanks.
I mean combat xp
You can only use combat XP on elite tanks for crew skills or converting into Free XP.
guys i want a prem tank for farming, i have already su100Y but do u recommend smth more fun ? i was thinking Y5 os a good option !
You can only use combat XP on elite tanks for crew skills or converting into Free XP.
@solid gate
I tried using the crew skills but the number of combat xp didn’t go down?
@kindred bone Y5s aren’t that great.
@kindred bone I second that ^^^
Are the T5's in the prem shop any good at making credits?
@solid gate You have to have elite status on the tank. Also I mean crew skills not crew training to 100%.
so do u recommend smth for farming ?
Nah you are pretty much wasting your time with t5 prems. Save a little more and get a good t6 @sharp spindle
@kindred bone depends on your play style
@kindred bone You’d better get something like T34 or Löwe.
@gentle wasp i‘m more to heavies and mediums
I loved the T34, it's amazing if you can get it hulldown.
Unless you aren’t at tier 8 yet, yeah.
What the frick.
@kindred bone good Meds would be Bromwell, Rudy, T-34-85 Victory, Pz IV S...
@gentle wasp Not T-34-85 Victory. Be better off enriching T-34-85.
@solid gate nah. Victory is cheap, makes amazing credits, has a nice gun, and looks super good
But Pz IV S, Rudy, and Cromwell B are good.
Should I research the engine on the VK 100 first?
@gentle wasp That third one is not entirely accurate. It’s like running T-34-85 with the first 85mm. The penetration is weak.
@sharp spindle Uh do you have the top gun yet?
@solid gate to explain the crew skills past level 5 on crew skills you have to use credits to finish training levels
@solid gate if you can manage the pen the DPM is better. And it should be noted that enriched 34-85 makes 151%, Victory is 182%
@solid gate No, but I can with the 50k free exp from the anniversary event. I also have 20k free exp right now.
@gentle wasp I know T-34-85 still makes less. Also the dpm doesn’t drop that much between the 2 guns. But I wouldn’t recommend the T-34-85 Victory to a newbie.
@solid gate I would. It is a good all around tank, fun and makes bank. Same thing with the Rudy but a tier higher.
@sharp spindle You better get the gun first. Then get the engine.
Alright, thanks for the advice.
@gentle wasp Eh the Cromwell you mentioned is better. Faster, better gun depression, and another good gun with better penetration.
@solid gate agreed, I also prefer the Cromwell B, but he said he is a heavy and medium driver so I threw in something with a bit of armor
I can handle T-34-85 Victory I guess because I played Type 58 and managed well enough in it. Even Aced that thing. But for a newbie I don’t think the Victory is the best premium at tier 6.
Fair enough
Well I’ll give that Russian mediums have troll armor (except T-43) so it could work. For a tier 6 heavy that’s a premium that’d be hard to tell him.
Yea for heavies you might as well go up to t8
Yeah. That tier is chalk full to premium heavies.
lol just war thunder
War Thunder is a way different game.
Wargaming give me/us OF 40 Mk 1 and Jaguar and I’d drop everything and go for those 2 tanks.
heyyy wg how about 4202 buff
Is the vk 72 tank good? I’m on the tier 9 of that tank rn I just was trying to get it because of the good armor from the front and the firepower like usual
this is just peak bruh for war thunder
@vague palm yes definitley worth it. i'm averaging 64% winrate and 2.85k avg damage per game. some people love it some people hate it. but i love it
the tier 10 is far better than the tier 9 in brawling anyways
@guilt#6969 aight
Right after the t-35
Also tsk 20 for blitz
I just want the M-60
Also ms1 and ft
Those were removed bc they dont fit the bill anymore
How do I post a Avatar picture
Like it?
But for a new premium vehicle idea take a look at this
@teal pumice #725691164425977977
why i cant access to the channel
Random question: Should a Maus II exist in this game?
Very good drawing
Drawing is neat the stats are laughable
Looks like a B1 tank
ITS A combination of Poland and French
Oh great
T15APL-interdependence
.
TMS-A561
Is it good
Adding nuclear shells would be great
Im just tier V
Im VII
Im turning tier 7 on german but i switched to american tanks because german heavies are so slow
#Relatable
But they can't hit the front of a T1 heavy
I rushed it
He looks like the X-Mas cat on WotB
Well anyway
I made it in 5mins
Pfffff buff kranvagn, too weak turret
You know what’s stupid? When you struggle to hit the weak points of a M6A2E1 while playing VK 100 but he keeps penning you.
should i go for t37?
Bulldog is getting buffed next update so yeah
Bulldog is getting buffed next update so yeah
@solid gate y tho
No idea why it’s been doing ok it’s gonna do even better soon
Should buff Churchill 7, is god awful. I luv bp tho
I have 8k gold should I get the Lowe that I want it wait a while until I get like 20k gold then buy a tier 10?
Get a lowe if you want to print credits
It is an investment really but it is not amazing it is great
I am an really old player
@sour spindle
Old like boomer old? 60's?
IS7 has wayyyy too much DPM
Did something happen to the Asia server because all of the players from Asia had their records removed
I took the top photo about 3 days ago and I took the bottom one today
How to play conqueror with stock gun? It's so hard penetrating T9-10 and also can't get much damage
The P40 would be a nice IV addition to the Pan-European tech tree
@broken turtle the T37 is pretty fun and competitive, especially w the autoloader
mmmm but my friend recommend me to go the chaffee for the fun t49 and atgm with sheridan. Is it okey?
How is the AMX M4 49? Is it really worth 7.5k gold?
@cursive vigil yeah its pretty terrible, u can either try to play it like the caernarvon and stay off the frontlines or just give up and free xp it lol
No the premium, i forgot the exact name lol
I like how they nerf A 20 but not Covenanter
to put them in the pass
I am looking for a prenium tank to grind credits...
Any recommendations?
Get the current event tank it's free
Lowe if you’re willing to shell out the money for it. Otherwise the ann.
wait for something like a 252U or chrysler K or some other good tier 8 when it comes out for gold. Lowe is just a credit printer so your choice.
Does anyone know when the Super conq is hitting the stores?
how to play amx 12 t
Clip and run
@solid gate u basically have to spot in the start, find an opening for flanking, flank some turretless td, and then run until ur clip is reloaded and repeat
Tier 6 stug? Maybe called the "Stug IV 75"
rip credits
When the new Swedish tech tre come?
Sir. Where the f[oof] are your other tanks?
Is there anyone who is trying to get to amx 50 b , but facing serious pain as the whole tier list is filled with crap ? 😔
The french guys did not have good tanks
@untold dirge only 1 tank? Bruh
I don't know why I switched to French from German. The time I wasted I could probably have unlocked a tier 9 in German tech tree.
50b is a wonderful line. Idk what you are on about
The french heavy tanks only got worse
Bdr, arl, m4 45(ok yeah that is meh). And the autoloaders... Just amazing
They have no armor.... They are menat to be a heavy tanks...
So? They are not traditional heavies
It is a serious main, no tank there has speed or armour . It's hard . 50b seems to be great but the others , I don't think they are game changer
What tank are you struggling with?@small quarry
I am struggling my way to amx 50 b. I am kinda rushing (don't know it's right to do) . I am not maxing out the tanks so, it is little hard to control them at normal stage.
https://www.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTanksBlitz/comments/b4xqp7/amx_50b_tech_tree_tuesday/
Alright have a read through this@small quarry
Ok
researched Tiger 2.... And need 1,304,627 credits more to buy it..
I hope you have some free exp @nocturne tiger
well I'm close to the prize of 50k free exp
a friend of mine has somewhere around 1.6mil free XP lol
he has all of the tech trees finished, so he has nothing to spend it on
what the heck
Tiger II with the stock turret is a pain. Grinding for the K.w.K L/68 using the first 10,5 is manageable.
but why would you stay on the stock turret
People who don’t plan their grinds and find themselves without any free exp and a stock tank
6 ideas to improve T2020 , upgradable to auto loader 3 round magazine , upgrade le engine . Upgradable optics turret camouflage ,improveble tracks and last but not least add a shell deflector on the hull to make it hard to kill
Stop complaining about the T-2020 being so bad. Instead of buying it just get an IS-5 for 1500 gold as it’s a better tank anyways
@untold dirge why one tank?
im broke as hell
I too was once broke to the point I had to go back to tier 3
and oh boy I never liked that time
oof, how'd it go?
rip wr
I remember going to t3 ti grind credits for my first t10
My little T-15 got quite a lot of playtime
i should try that to earn money for a t9
How good is the E 75 TS? I saw online it's pretty meh by reviewers
Just that, pretty meh. The gun is good but only 310 alpha on that platform is a struggle
Hello
Damn...ok
just asking, but does this guide still apply to the current patch?

To me, yes
oh okay, thanks
Is tiger 131 good? I think it probably not
It’s a vk36 in hard mode
It is mediocre
so it's bad? and not fun?
I just want a good high tier premium to make cash...ugh....
I wouldn’t say it’s too much fun. More of a collector’s tank
allright, 600 gold doesn't worth it bruh
i have 1400 gold, enough to buy a tier 5 premium, what do i get?
Watch some ads and buy the IS-5
already have
None of the t5 prems are worth it, save up a little more and wait for a good sale on a t6
Since idk which premiums on sale/bundle is good, mine if someone enlighten me? I prefer to avoid T6 and lower...
E25 is a good deal
That's all? Ok
E25 is light tankhunter , fast and a nasty sting , could act as spotter and as to
But weak armor
TD
I was expecting more tanks than just an E25
@shell forum Y5 tanks are definitely a pass. Excelsior is meh. T-2020 is crap and way overpriced. Amx is a good tank but idk if you want a t8. Say no to the crates. I guess Pz B2 would be a good deal if you enjoy t4.
pzb2 isnt that good
It gets the preferential MM but yea seems boring
Oh I would take T8. I did said I want to avoid T6
Perhaps the game could add B model TigerJäger to the game as a premium/ collectible tier IX just for the style
No
I'm fine with 7 & 8. I need more gameplay high tier anyway
Oh nvm I read it wrong then. Yea Amx is a solid tank but the E75 TS is not that good.
ISU is pretty good, insane gun, but the 2sh is bad.
The scorpion G should be perma for sale , awsome thing
It’s too good to be on sale all the time
I saw people complaining about Jagdpanzer E100. I'm playing with it, the tank is fine. Got no problem with those high speed lights.
Just want to know, someone advise me to buy AMX AC 48 or not ? AMX AC 46 is horrible should I continue to search his next tanks ? Or heavy french tank is better to play ? I have the arl 44 too and his is good
Keep. Foch is awesome
T-2020 is one of the worst Tier 8 prems with Vk. 168.01 P. And he's waaaay too overpriced. Y5 tanks are correct. Panzer B2 is the worst tank I've ever played...
Keep. Foch is awesome
@solid gate ok thanks 😁
A good tier X light that may be interesting to add in-game..Fyi: (A tank designed to replace the sheridan in real life) 105mm gun,It's U.S made but the U.S did not care to buy it, only Thailand bought the tank...I live across a military camp so I see it parked everyday >_<
No crazy composite armor ...just good-old angled design(it's a light tank so obviously no armor) "Stingray light tank"
You guys somehow peak my interests in Foch, go on?
Foch 155 has barrel gun... EVERY French tier 10 have one of those guns
Foch. Out yolos the yolowagon
@shell forum Y5 tanks are definitely a pass. Excelsior is meh. T-2020 is crap and way overpriced. Amx is a good tank but idk if you want a t8. Say no to the crates. I guess Pz B2 would be a good deal if you enjoy t4.
@gentle wasp the y5 firefly is amazing but i don't think it is worth that horrid amount of gold
It is a serious main, no tank there has speed or armour . It's hard . 50b seems to be great but the others , I don't think they are game changer
@small quarry wdym
They sre mobile enough to go with the mediums
The line is def not bad
It's just not a conventional playstyle
Yeah that is why i just pointed him to a well written guide to the line
@strange thicket no it isn’t. Bromwell does it way better.
Yes it is
It is amazing
Plus it was free
I will take it over bromwell
And brom doesn't even do it THAT much better @gentle wasp
@strange thicket it is not amazing. The pen is bad, it loses alpha on prammo, and it isn’t even that fast
The pen is bad? Lmfao
Sorry what else would you call 14th out of 20 t6 meds, and 12th on prammo with terrible alpha
Mate
Have you played the tank?
Pen is enough to go through most of what you will face
Besides
Every tank loses alpha on its prammo except for stuff like su-100y and isu-130
Dunno why ya complaining
The reload on it is 4.8
The tank is my fav tier 6 lol
It just does its job well
It is not worth that much gold tho i will admit
doesn't have gold
Mate that is an opinion that the pen is good enough, it is just facts that the pen is bad. This one loses more than pretty much anything, it has worst in class prammo alpha.
@solid gate already has the tank
Yea on paper the DPM is good but face anything with decent armor and you’re screwed. Forget about t7
sad noises
I'm still at tier 6 mostly with one tier 8
@gentle wasp funny enough the accuracy will allow you to aim for weakspots
I dunno mate it is just been amazing whenever i play it
I don't mind getting uptiered in it
I can still use the gun dep to get my shots off
Yea the accuracy is decent but if i am going to play a paper tank I would rather have something faster to get into better positions to set off shots.
Well it is not that slow either
It is decently mobile
I am not saying it is better than bromwell btw
I am just saying the tank is good(great for me)
Especially when you are uptiered you don’t have the best speed to get on a flank and you have a bad gun.
Well yea I am glad you do well in it but it is still a mediocre tank at best
@granite crystal
I'm already terrified of the smasher, don't encourage a buff.
lol
@broken turtle I personally find the Chaffee a bit less fun to play, and tanks such as the Vk 28.01 do the same thing but better. The T37 is just a bit of a refresher, and sets you up well for the Bulldog play style
@solid gate it needs to be at least 325mm for it to truly be competitive
Dude I played with the ARL V39 yesterday, and in 4 consecutive games I got HE'd immediately. 2 of the times it was a Smasher.
You shouldn’t put that poor thing in spots where the smasher can get it
I was still moving to said spot when I got yeeted
the V39’s only good when it can snipe
hello
anime pfp get out
Please don't
I despise that anime lmao
It introduced me to anime, so I like it.
@lethal isle u got anime russian pfp here is a tank for u
IS chassis with KV-2 turret?
i have the kv2. it sucks to play. but when you ht i is delicious xaxaxa
I love the KV2 especially when I run into a light tank
yes xaxa like the leopard
why are you running
why are you running
Leopard rammed into me once and bounced all of it's shots.
I then proceeded to ammo rack his ass
XAXAXA
I've ammo racked way too many people in the VK 0.01
i just get the E75
and i hate this. i just wnat the E100
i will get 50k free xp plus my 73k free xp and ill have 123k free xp xaxax
Oh
E75 is good
If you are complaining about it then you probably don't know how to drive it
Did you get the top gun if i may ask?
It’s trash stock, so slow
But great fully upgraded
Besides if you hate it then you will hate the e100
Should I buy the amx m4 49?
No, it's basically a worse tiger 2, it's not really good at all.
Just looking for a fun tank that make decent credits
Lowe is pretty good
Overrated and not that fun
If you want a fun tank that makes decent credits in tier 8 I might suggest Chimera, Lekpz M41 90mm, or Skorpion.
Löwe Isn't as good as people claim. It's pretty boring.
Am looking for the scorp
@orchid nymph right now the E25 is on sale, decent earner and amazingly fun tank. Also a good bundle
If you want to make credits and still enjoy. Play a tank that you will enjoy. Like light tnks? German Bulldog and so on
Tier 8 premiums will always make decent credits
I want want to spend anymore money. I got 7500 gold to spend
Just save up and wait a bit more
So maybe Black Friday or Christmas?
Maybe, or just when a good deal comes. Like the 252u deal for 8.5k gold
Not looking for another IS clone
I might suggest just keep watching ads for now and save up your gold, tanks Generally come back ever 3 months
I mean if those T8 was selling I would grab one
Ahh
The 252u isn’t a clone by the way, it outclasses them all, but a lot of other good tanks are available like the prog
should i enrich my t54 ltwt?
If you enjoy it and play it a ton sure.
Uh...no. I never find enriching a tech tree good as they can still get nerf
Ltwt is not likely to get nerfed
WG was never a company with logic
They can nerf the tanks sure, but it's pretty rare that a tank gets severly nerfed in which case you shouldn't enrich it because it will be nerfed.
See Charioteer when first added
okay, I'll take the advice given and not enrich my t54 ltwt
That's not what I was saying. I was saying don't enrich vehicles that are likely to be nerfed...
And this one is not likely. Also it is a pretty unique vehicle so it is not a bad choice
oh my bad, but i sold my t-34-85 victory and totally regretted it
You can get it back
You can restore it via ticket
If you have any questions or are experiencing issues with any of our games, welcome to Player Support!
i can get it, but my economy is in the red currently (I only have 3.4k creds left)
I would recommend saving up for it, the Victory is one of the better credit grinders in the game
^^^
Whenever you do want to restore it, you can find that link under the pins in #general-blitz-discussion
okay thanks for the help
T14 is utter garbage for a heavy
Jag is getting a nerf?
They don’t plan to make such changes
Pretty sure wg doesn’t plan anything, nerfs and buffs are calculated by dice rolls, as is the case with T1 heavy /s
I bought the FV201 (A45) And the other tanks the other day and there actually pretty good
You're doing it wrong guys! Go to Blitzstar, look up worse performing and best performing tanks, slap it on the spreadsheet, and buff nerf it
WG cares shit about how it play. They care how the numbers look
That is not the case either because they use numbers from the better players and chart that, and still don’t seem to pay attention to it
No, it's basically a worse tiger 2, it's not really good at all.
@lyric oriole looking at the armor profile it seems better?
It doesnt have that turn to butter turret like tiger 2 when loading gold
Alao 10 degrees of gun dep
The turret roof/copula is still very weak
Oh
Alright then
The hull won’t stand up to t8s or most gold shells, and you can’t angle much because of the paper sides and the little “shoulders”
The 10° of gun depression it what makes it still competitive with the tiger.
Given how long it's been around and how few of them I see I don't believe that to be the case
I have a question about my t22 medium tier 10
if I sell my t22 medium tier 10 collector will it be able to be restored for gold at a later date? It doesn't appear on the list to buy back but I assume it's cause it's still in my garage but i would like confirmation before I make such a huge decision
Why would you sell the T22 if you would just buy it back later
Yea just don’t sell it mate
The t22 is a very good tank dont sell it
You could buy it back later yes
i am so happy
i just het the good cannon of my E75 and this is so dangerous for the enemies
this was hard to get
now i have 70k free xp to get the E100
Use the free xp to get the e100 top gun
is any good to keep it? and i can use it in realistic mode?
this is for tank discussion, maybe you could talk somewhere else?
Moderators aren't involved in customer support, and none of us speak Portuguese
? '-
Wargaming only responds in Russian and English as well, there is no support for other languages
okay, you answer my ticket
administrator answet tickets ?
your ticket was sent 9 minutes ago, be patient and a Wargaming customer service employee will be with you soon
;-;
i guess i keep hope i can use for realistic mode
For those asking whyid sell the t22 medium it is because I would like to buy one of the offers in the shop and if I will always have the t22 as an option to buy back then I don't mind temporarily letting it go
"temporarily"
good luck tryna scrap up the gold to get it back without opening ur wallet
🤦🏼♂️
administrador brasileiro tae?
@west sorrel xaxaxa wow. i was not thinkin that i could fund a brazilain here
I’m honestly flabbergasted by so many folks in this game.
@lethal isle English server. Follow the rules. You can PM him if you’d like to have a talk outside of English
Yes temporarily I do actually get gold often and I barely play tier 10 as it is
Don't get me wrong the tank is god but I just don't play tier 10 often
uhhhhhh no comment
I know what your thinking but I much prefer tier 8 over any tier
if u are thinking about getting the E75TS then don't cuz it's as good as a pre-buff tiger II
and pre-buff Tiger II is not everyone's cup of tea
Not exactly
Does anyone have tips for playing e25? I got it earlier and I'm struggling to position correctly
if u can snipe, snipe
if u can't, try to go up to an unsuspecting large tank and dpm the hell out of it
Alright, thanks
I am bias since I like my TD mobile coughW131GFTcough so I usually play 2nd/3rd line fighter
What's your favorite tier 8 premium guys?
<@&481447501690568709> recuparacion vehicules premium 1 = 1 years ?
Uh, what is a good Tier 8 Premium Tank?
I only had three tier 8 premiums so I don't have much tanks to base my opinion, but between M6 EXP, Löwe and FCM 50T I'd choose M6 EXP because of the gun @orchid nymph
@west sorrel why would you ping all moderator for that...
i not speak english
worry - no mercy
@west sorrel moderators don't work for WG, also the restoration bot is having problems. Now it takes around 3 or 4 hours for a simple restoration
Also use Google translator
Here we go again
I need friends
Is the WZ111 5A worth the buy?
Anyone know when the chieftain mk.6 might come out ?
Any recommendations for equipment on the lowe?
@pulsar yarrow
@wise moth lowe?
Yeah, that’s my Löwe setup, you can see in the top left corner
If it is, that’s one heck of a setup, i just looked at the tank in the background lol
It’s a pretty standard setup though. That’s what I run on the majority of my tanks lol
6 year players know the tanks they go up against
I had this tank for a long time but I don’t remember how I got it how do you get it? Just @ me or ping me if you wanna tell
You have bought it in a bundle with the tier VI Sentinel or you got it from a container
thx positive
how good is standard b
very
The SU-122-44 is a good Premium Tank?
it is decent
T34-2G ft is better
ok, but I was thinking about buying the SU-122-44 or the M6A2E1, and I can't buy both, and it's the two types of tanks that I play the most
and I don't have a tier 7 Premium Tank
SU122 44 then, its like t34-2g ft but has less rof and has more armour
(A 1958 photo of the ИС-3 Защитник in New York City, New York)
Due to rapid evolution in tank design, the 1945 Object 703 (IS-3) was losing it's strength, and designers in Factory No. 100 "Kirovskiy Works" were ordered to create a modernized version of the IS-3 due to the opposing Americans with their 120mm Gun Tank T110 heavy tank destroyer program.
In 1955 Chief Designer Александер Добройвич proposed an Electric drive motor previously used on a prototype Submersible vehicle to be the powerplant of the new tank. Giving the tank 620 horsepower at 2100 RPM.
The technical designers also took inspiration from the Kirovets-1's turret as a design for the new nicknamed "Defender" modernization program for the IS-3, coupled with the D-25T gun, Александер himself decided that the tank should feature an autoloading system, disregarding the loader and giving space for the new feature.
The new D-25TA (A for Aвтопогрузчик, autoloader in Russian) could fire at an RPM of 8 with a 30 round ammo stowage on the left side of the turret without the need of assisted loading. The 122mm shells developed were specially designed to punch through any tank during that era.
ZBM14 - An APDS shell that could penetrate armor up to 230mm in around 10 meters and 190mm in 1000m at 90 degrees with shell velocity of around 1400m/s
ZBVK6 - A HEAT shell capable of penetrating 285mm at any range within a 90 degree angle with a shell velocity of 840 m/s
UOF-741 - A HE shell which was packed with 2.4kg of explosives and could fire at a shell velocity of around 790 m/s
The first prototype was first shown at a training ground in Tunguska in 1956 where it performed a multiple series of tests ranging from submerged in water engine performance, to accuracy tests on hills ranging from 500m-2km.
After the satisfactory of these results, around 1500 of these tanks were ordered to be used in the Red Army. The tank shown in this photo was No. 1202.
Is there really gonna be a 4th of July tank???
I don't know.
Some story for IS-3 defender ? Man, It's beautiful !
Yeah I just made it up lol
less than 10kxp from rhm. can I have setup tips and gameplay difference from emil
you have very good camo, turret and decent mobility but absolutely no armor, play it safe from a distance and try to let your team mates take damage when you can. and generally the derp gun on it is the way to go
It's all about the camo and gun. You should camp in bushes early on, but if you have already familiarize yourself with its camo, you can pull off some spectacular ambushes.
@solid gate Ok well i have the Grille and the whole line and Borsig, Waffle & Grille are all the same sort of Playstyle but ok with the Borsig, First you have a Very good camo it's ( I mean It's Amazing ) So you are really good at ambushing, but if you do get spoted then yes i hope you are behind a hard cover cause if your not you are just going to get killed so here are my tips
- You have descent mobility so you can move around fast
- Play it from a safe distance poke out Derp your enemy hard then roll back if you did get spotted and roll back by the time your reloaded then your camo would have been rested
- If your team starts pushing flanks go with them dont wait to get flanked
and 4. Play it like you would with all tds but just remember you are paper 99 out of 100 shots are gonna go through you.
So Good Luck with the Borsig and when you get the top gun on waffle your going to be laughing so hard, Anyway Happy Tanking & Good Luck in your Future Battles.
Glad i could help,
Kind Regards
Dtankshooter2091amec3 [ NA SERVER ]
@solid gate wow that's amazing. thank you so much I will read now haha 😊😊😊
Ur Welcome @solid gate
@solid gate also in terms of setup, how much equipment is worth buying, and do I need provisions and ammo ratio
and 1 more lol sorry. what should I get first tracks or gun (I already got engine)
Yes i would go for first 3 provisions if you have alot of credits go for last three and well the eqipt well is say go for camo net and the faster reload
gun imo, I’d run CS on the 150mm
Lol go for gun and btw @solid gate what server u play on pla say NA
If your rich get all the @solid gate equipment as honestley its a well worth investment
Oh and ammo ratio go for 10 HE 16 Ap and 4 gold@solid gate
On the Borsig I’d run CS with the 15cm/Rammer on the 12,8, defense system, camo net, supercharge, improved assembly, engine accelerator and refined gun. The last 2 aren’t an absolute need.
@hollow belfry Cs?
calibrated shells
moar pen for heat
@solid gate
The pen on standard ammunitions with the 15cm is pretty mediocre, using CS makes it slightly better along with a tad more HE pen (always useful) and makes the HEAT go through anything that isn’t spaced armor.
thanks @solid gate damn those apcr are expensive tho
@solid gate umm
What server are u on@solid gate can u dm me please
I bought 5 equipment slots. also playing with a turreted td is so weird rn
@hollow belfry @solid gate thanks!
you’re welcome
how do yall play the Jpanther?
i do a 50/50 way,not sure if thats how ure meant to do it
Perhaps a good idea to make a collectible E100STUG to celebrate the 6th summer
It would be cool to be able to use 220 mm mortar or 172 mm pak . With HE and HEAT the mortar wil devastate 155 mm or less armor in one blow making it a hot summer
The TD play is picking good spots . Ammo I use mostly cheap . Take the other types to but HE is virtualy not much useable that’s why I take just 4 of them
The TD play is picking good spots . Ammo I use mostly cheap . Take the other types to but HE is virtualy not much useable that’s why I take just 4 of them
@solid gate i use he for times when i need to eat away at a enemy's health,like in a battle of attrition
but thanks for the advice !
I just got E75 which should I research first? Turret or gun?
Go for turret first and gun afterwards
Ok ty 😂 😂
No worries, but if you do have trouble on its maneuverability, get tracks after turret i guess
Track better than engine?
Just unpopular thing i made few days ago, i'm throwing it here:
*New US mediums line/T95 line (starting from Tier VIII M26 Pershing)
- Tier IX T95E5 Medium (T95 Medium tank with M60 turret and Royal Ordnance L7 "T254E1" 105mm tank gun)
Branches into two tanks:
- Tier X T95E7 Medium (T95 Medium tank with M60A1/A3 turret and Royal Ordnance L7 "T254E2" 105mm tank gun)
And
- Tier X T95E4 Medium (T95 Medium tank with T95E6 turret and T210 105mm tank gun)
What do you think? 🤔
@solid hamlet For me, yes. Engine is kinda bit expensive afaik
I see. Most of my tanks got no track research haha
Which one is the 90mm @alpine notch
I know one variant has it that fires APFSDS, could have that maybe for the T9 with hella DPM.
nvm its the t95e1
Thats T95E2 as well @solid gate
One current underrated prems..
We also have the E8 which fires a 120mm smoothbore
That hull could be stupid strong ngl (test bed)
Thats E6 wasnt it? Current tier X one
I think it's a different gun @alpine notch
Same caliber but the E8 has a more modern 120
And in game the E6 is a heavy, all of these are medium tank prototypes.
And the E8 was a completed version of it's previous brothers.
Here's my idea.
Tier 9:
T95E1 - Comes stock with the 90mm dart gun, has great dpm and other stuff but meh dpm, upgrades to the 105mm
Tier 10:
T95E8: The only completed versions of the T95 medium tank test beds, comes with a 120mm DELTA gun, along with a more powerful engine.
Sounds good to be true i guess
Or perhaps this as an interesting tank.
The test bed has an ATGM launcher uwu.
Listen I know people really don't like ATGM's, but I wouldn't mind a tank that just fires missiles only, it would kinda balance it.
So this T95E1 will have ability to equip M60 (either A1 or A3 turret) and a 105 mm L7?
Yeah why not, and the T10 can be something new with a 120mm, we only got like the 121 that fires a 420 alpha.
Or perhaps this as an interesting tank.
The test bed has an ATGM launcher uwu.
@solid gate Isnt this from M60A2 Starship?
Btw, im not sure if T95E8 Delta was a thing, coz afaik.. T95E8 was a bit like improvement of T95E2 with 12V71T diesel engine
@alpine notch
Detroit Diesel?!?!
It is? I think that its right designation
@solid gate I have readed that in past
But overall, I wouldn't mind to see more T95's be added into the game
If they do, hopefully they don't make them boring af to play
boi thats a lot of nerds
If the 12V71T engine is an upgrade for any of the T95s, it better have that iconic DD roar, if not, idk.
@solid gate Not likely in WoT Blitz i guess, they always have generic sounds
Damb, such a shame
Leoprad its so slow an stupid 😡 🖕
ngl you need the engine upgrade for it to be at its full potential
Sheridan should be M551
Not XM551 anymore
Why? The one we have isnt the M551
Oh
The prototype one
Yeah the one in game is the xm551 (one of the few times they got a tanks name right)
The Sheridan in game is the 1st prototype XM551 I think. The later prototypes and production models got rid of that funky stuff. Might be a flotation device?
Also I had a question but forgot what it was.
Why the Tiger 131 is a tier 6 but the normal Tiger 1 is a tier 7?????
I wonder if Leone hull could take OF 40 Mk 1 turret. Well I mean I believe TE said the OF 40s (or at least the mark one) were at least somewhat based off the Leone. If you did it that way then you’d have this line:
VIII - (a bit odd but works) Carro Armato M47
IX - Leone/OF 40 Mk 1
X - OF 40 Mk 2
@solid gate The guns. Tier 7 one gets the late version’s turret and gun. The 131 is an early Tiger while tier 7 Tiger is a late version.
Oh,thanks mate.@solid gate
@solid gate You’re welcome.
What's leone?@solid gate
Or perhaps this as an interesting tank.
The test bed has an ATGM launcher uwu.
@solid gate that is aT95 variant, ain't it?
It’s a German/Italian project MBT @rapid orchid.
Mhm yes @narrow rampart
@narrow rampart There are so many T95 variants Martin. I think they go up to like E12 or something.
You're talking about the Europanzer project @solid gate
Also no, it goes up to E8.
@solid gate Nope. That’s not associated with the Leone really.
Leopard prototypes
Show me the Leone
Those are not leo protos.
Can u send a pic of what ur talkin about? @solid gate
@rapid orchid Just a minute.
Look already got it.
Oh and you might be right it goes up to E8 not E12 on the T95 variants. I’m just forgetting.
@solid gate That’s a Leopard dressed time look somewhat like it. Let me get a better picture.
Leopard 1
So a 1975 italian MBT
There’s it in the factory. Pulled straight from TE. No, it’s not a Leopard 1 though may look similar @rapid orchid.
Ah
I see
Also the OF 40 looks very similar to the Leone and the German Leopard but is an entirely Italian project. That’s what TE says anyway.
Was it just a prototype?
OF 40 Mk 1 here was: Mk 2 not as sure about. Also all the Mk 1s were upgraded to Mk 2s.
so i just started playing the french td line any tips? (im at already at s35 ca)
Prepare for the suffering after the s35😂
Bruh
Just snipe in tier 6 and 7. They are as soft as fresh french bread
Which gun for WT auf pz iv? 15cm or 12.8?
15cm, by a landslide
😫 😫
Why u mad?
what should i worry about at t6?
A KV-2
oh i forgot about that
lol
It is hard choice, only got 70k free exp
Well Play more, 15cm worth it 100% I’m at grille, the 15cm rly good
Ok sir 👌 👌 I like big dmg too
So unlock 15cm first then track and 12.8 gun last right?( Already unlock engine)
By the way you could practically make a whole line with T95 series tanks.
So unlock 15cm first then track and 12.8 gun last right?( Already unlock engine)
@solid hamlet Uh ye, but 15 first then 12.8, track don’t really matter to me
Or maybe I was right about T95 variants if the OTM guy is right with this list:
T95 - The original tank, with the smoothbore 90 mm Gun T208 in a fixed mount.
T95E1 - A T95 with a recoil mount and a simplified fire-control system.
T95E2 - A T95 with the M48A2 turret and the rifled 90 mm Gun M41.
T95E3 - A T95 with the T54E2 turret and the rifled 105 mm Gun T140E3.
T95E4 - A T95 with the T96 turret and the smoothbore 105 mm Gun T210.
T95E5 - A T95E2 with a licence-built Royal Ordnance L7, the 105 mm Gun T254.
T95E6 - A T95E4 with the rifled lightweight 120 mm Gun T123E6.
T95E7 - A T95E1 with the 105 mm Gun T254E2 (M68).
T95E8 - A T95E2 with a 12V71T diesel engine.
T95E9 - A T95E6 with a 12V71T diesel engine.

T95E11 - A T95E6 with a VDS-1100 diesel engine.
T95E12 - A T95E11 with a full solution fire control system and a 2-meter base rangefinder
Holy
Also the Chieftain/T95 uses the original T95’s gun which is smoothbore. Wargaming called it (rifled) though because they cannot break their rule about no smoothbore guns. Well hate to break it to you Wargaming but you have.

realistically you could have Panzer IIIs from I-IV as the N model had a short 75
@granite crystal Wow!
Also wouldn’t T95E6 still be a medium class tank despite the size of the gun? Of course you have the T96 which is what the turret for the T95E6 is from.
depends rly. I’d say from the armor it would still be a medium.
Yeah Wargaming made it a heavy because they goofy. But realistically with the armor profile and the speed it’s more like a medium than a heavy.
And I still full heartedly believe the T54E2 should be a tier 9 medium not a tier 8 heavy for 2 main reasons. 1 it was a medium irl and 2 we don’t need more tier 8 premium heavies.

What was special about the hydro?
@karmic nymph it was an experimental transmission. No test data exists unfortunately
In late 1943, Zahnradfabrik Augsburg equipped normal (turretless) Panzerkampfwagen IV Ausf G/H with newly developed hydraulic steering system. Thoma (non-liquid) oil drive transmission was installed and drive sprocket was replaced with the new one. The power train consisted of twin oil pumps driven by Maybach HL 120 TRM engine. In order to accommodate all the changes, entire engine deck and rear was modified. In mid 1944, this prototype was fitted with modified hydraulically operated turret. Tests were carried on but were never concluded. There are varying accounts as to what happened to the prototype afterwards; one is that it stayed at the testing facility and was captured there by the US Army, and the other account states that the prototype was sent to Russia and served with the Waffen SS unit. At the end of the war, this vehicle was captured by the US Army and was sent to United States for further examination. Tests were never concluded and this vehicle is still at Aberdeen U.S Army Proving Grounds in Maryland.
It's quite a cool tank in terms of design, I like the look
t95 series have composit armour
no...
@solid gate you forgot about the Panzer IV/70s
and I think the Sd. Kfz 140/1 could make for a fun tier ii
Well maybe if you believe Wikipedia but that’s not the most trustworthy site. Also it just says fused Silica embedded in cast steel armor.
@solid gate
glass.
that’s an M60 😆
T95 has much lower ground clearance. Plus, where did you get the picture from?
the m60 bore evacuator is different
I don’t think the T95 had true composite armor or Wargaming wouldn’t have added it. Either that or they removed it from equation.
That’s not the thing here buddy. Look at the chassis. In your image, it clearly has the distinctive hull design of the M48 & M60. The T95 has much steeper angling.
buddy look m60 never has composits
looks a bit similar, doesn’t it 🤔
no on the m60 the bore evacuator is more in the middle
Where did you get the image from?
Ok, so I’m guessing the image is inaccurate or unsourced to the point of uncertainty
While most prototypes of the T95 just used conventional steel armor, the later T95E6 variant was supposed to have siliceous cored armor, an early take on composite armor that placed a plate of silica glass between the steel plates to disrupt penetrators when they moved from one material to another. However, the T95 program was canceled before the T95E6 was built. - The National Interest
not the most reliable source but the best we have rn
@night pilot we can’t take that image as proof until you tell us where it came from
@granite crystal @night pilot that’s an M48 Patton....
Well no but I’d say TNI is better than Wikipedia. Sadly TE afaik doesn’t have an article on the T95 yet.
no on the m60 the bore evacuator is more in the middle
@night pilot bore evacuators are about gun, not tanks perse
The M48 did have composite armor very late 50s
Also, the lower front part of M48 and M60 is different
i was talkign about the gun @narrow rampart
I know
That’s no T95 hull
But a gun is not necessarily a 100% ID for a tank
the gun on the m68 is middle compared to the 90mm
That’s not how it works
not the same hull @night pilot
https://www.steelbeasts.com/topic/10919-history-of-us-tanks/
idk if this is enough but here
Ok so lets start another interesting topic. US Armor is actually my black horse, and its a very interesting story in itself, however and funny enough sometimes not very well known to general public, and sometimes shrouded by myths. So where we start, I think the best is to sta...
The bore evac is a part to ID it’s a M48A5-M60 the 90mm has a literal muzzle brake and the 105mm doesn’t
nothing compared to Panzer III design iterations
@granite crystal M4 Sherman series likes to weigh in
possibly, especially if you count other countries’ modifications
Also still that’s not A t95 that’s the Patton’s hull when it was testing composite armor
Sherman variants are confusing since they added A# then did A#E#.
blogs aren’t historically accurate
@solid gate that goes for all US Army WW2 tanks
@narrow rampart I suppose so.
idk i could go find us army manuls but its going to take time
A is basic sub model, E stands for Experimental version
A stands for Alteration E stands for Enhancement @narrow rampart
@night pilot it’s not going to be in US Army manuals
Also, there's fairly simple basic versions
A stands for Alteration E stands for Enhancement @narrow rampart
@solid gate eerhm .. nope
@narrow rampart Oh, ok. Also you think T20 should get a buff? I like it a bit but most players (included M4 Obsessed) hate it.
it gets confusing when they added HVSS @narrow rampart
I haven’t seen E used in any prototype tank
The E suffix stands for a subversion of a tank that is experimental
That’s what A is for
The T denoted a prototype version
Wouldn’t A mean Alteration?
No, A denotes a submodel of a tank that has been accepted for service
T26E2 T26E3 T26E4 all are enhancements off the previous one
Err well by Dog’s standard I think A would mean that.
T26 is experimental tank 26. The E is subversion of that T26
@solid gate Those are late war to post war tanks.
T26 is WW2
M26 is Korea
I know but it (as in the accepted version E3 as M26) served after WW 2 as well hence my wording. I meant it in a time frame.
The E doesn’t stand for that it literally stands for enhancement IE M4A3e8 M4A4E2
hold on a second
Even the M1A1 abrams was originally designated M1E1 before it was complete
Wait what happened to M4A2E1-E3? I know there is the experimental M4A2E4 but what about the other 3?
@solid gate no it was XM1
Xm1 is the original M1 model
The E doesn’t stand for that it literally stands for enhancement IE M4A3e8 M4A4E2
@solid gate source to back that up?
Actually some places mention an M1E1 for some reason @granite crystal. But XM1 is the main experimental M1 Abrams.
M1E1 would have to be post production
M1E1 vs M1A1 is confusing. I think E1 was a one off.
M1E1 is the abrams that tested L44 and frontal armor plates for A1
source?
enjoy watching the nerd debate
shuddup
Oh, right. I forgot TE had an article on the M1E1. Maybe that’s where I first found it.
http://afvdb.50megs.com/usa/pics/t95.html @granite crystal also here is more t95e2, it dose have composits
But what’s the difference between it and A1?
Perhaps the Army’s designation changed sometime during the Cold War, as after Korea you really don’t see E in active service tanks
E1 has test plates and missing a few sights A1 has a better turret and few other pieces of equipment
Ok.
the army used XM as new proto designation
XM stands for experimental model atleast from what I know
@night pilot it never lists which model was equipped on, if it even existed
If T95 was using or to use appliqué armor that’s not the same as built in composite armor it seems. It’s an add on package.
https://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/298700-t-64-vs-t95-medium-tank/
also its on WT forums, its more accurate than any wot forums
Both tanks are composite based and have very power firepower. P.S. Choogleblitz i need your expertise on the t-64. (Text by Steelwings55 : https://forum.warthunder.com/index.php?/topic/206072-t95e1-medium-tank/ ) The T95 was a series of prototype tanks from the mid-1950s and e...
Unsourced -_-
@granite crystal https://apps.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/524050.pdf
us army documents
so t95 dose have composits
@night pilot not all of them. It clearly says only six of them were built
and it doesn’t tell us what designation they are
The Military Equipment Database
Ok then but the in game ones probably don’t have the appliqué/composite armor.
Remember, only 6 were built w composite
Yeah. Also I wonder what other tanks Vickers came up with as drawings. Especially for light tank designs.
Lord wisheth me luck with this
@solid gate T95 isn’t great either. Very tricky to play. Especially since the stupid armor nerf many updates ago.
That’s a LOT of Hybrid Nation tanks.
@raw spruce Mate you cannot even see them all.
@solid gate yeah, but, doom turtle amirite.
@solid gate Well I hate it so far. Probably not playing it right I guess but it’s not even got the frontal armor anymore. Especially against stinking premium rounds.
SU-85B huh? Outdated tier IV. SU-85 isn’t great anymore either.
Who said that they're good
I have more but these are my best if you don’t count my Matilda.
Grind KV1, when I got it I shredded the thing
Not necessarily.
Both light tanks, pretty sure the Sheridan has better armor although.
No
Sheridan does have better armor but it’s not as used anymore
Sheridan is a paper tank of the xxl variants
@solid gate Well I used to like the SU-85 like 2-4 years ago but now it’s kinda meh at best. SU-100 is not good either. True SU-100 as with the 122mm it’s actually the SU-122P.
I have it on my own
Is the Black Prince any good?
BP is good now except the AP pen.
Wargaming should rework the T28 model, as the tank is the T95 without tracks, make it relevant again...
After all these years...
Three and a half years of pain. And I finally get something from a weekly crate.
LOL im getting that soon from a contest
I Just finished the British heavy line and now I'm looking for a new line to grind, I was thinking something Tank destroyer but I'm not sure for what nation
I really like having armour so maybe the German TDs?
@solid gate That’s what I said but someone else said nobody cares about it. Well they’ve made adjustments to tanks people didn’t care about before.
@nova fog They’re okish to good on armor except the tier 8s.
Well actually the tier V and VI ones aren’t that great on armor but they have mobility and dpm. The tier VII has armor on the front. Tier 8s don’t have great armor profiles overall. JT has armor and JP E 100 (StuG E 100 to be more correct) has armor.
Ok so T28 isn't that bad, just gotta max the crew, get the gun and off I go
very slowly
thanks, is there a tree that has more consistent armour in the TDs?
@nova fog you can go Jagdtiger or T3 route
ok thanks for the tips
Uh, is the IS-6 any good?
its decent if you know how to use it
its decent if you know how to use it
Just use the IS playstyle with Sidescraping
Kk, thx!
@nova fog Hard to say if there is a consistent TD line with armor.
What about the Löwe?
I don't like Löwe, I don't have tips about it
the japanese td line has some armored tanks, with at least having a troll profile
@solid gate You’re kidding me right? T28 is just a worse T95 (which itself is tricky to play with all the lights and mediums out there) and messed up model.
@solid gate That may be so. I’ve yet to get past the first one myself though.
I was talking about my own experience, plus I'm trying to have fun.
Has anyone tried the P.43
Me. Not bad, but It disappeard from my garage
i just got the mastery and sold it
Sad
Eh I may have had okayish battles with T28 but the tank sucks. Barely faster than T95 with super weak sides, a lower plate it shouldn’t have, and a smaller gun mount.
So the P.43 is ok.
