I really like Naomi. Calm and cool, and focused on the job... but when it's all done she can lean back and rest her head in a set of soft pillows and appreciate a good match.
Also, this episode was exceedingly fun. Ep 4 was pretty fun, what with urban warfare and all, but this episode was really entertaining and had more humour. Wonder what that song that kicked in at 07:15 was, but it sounded typically American. And yes, using The Army Goes Rolling Along as the entrance for Kay, bringing the Cavalry with her, was appropriately win.

There is a very good reason why militaries teach combative systems like MCMAP and Krav Maga. As for your suggestion, having neither the time or inclination to post a wall of text, I will simply put that Oarai was outnumbered and outgunned, and their only hope of winning was to kill the Saunders flag tank before they were all defeated. They had no chance of going up against those Shermans and surviving long enough to kill all of them. Being in a position where they could choose between the Easy Eight flag tank and the Firefly, the fastest way of securing a win would be to kill the Easy Eight.

The 76mm did not come into mass production until 1944, and even then, it had power that was only comparable to the German 75mm KwK 40. They were definitely outclassed by the Panther, let alone the Tiger. Still, for every German tank, there were about 5 Shermans. Pretty good odds. - Tak

Yeah, you're right, the Easy Eight is the A3E8; Arisa's got the A1E8... ah well, ya know what they say: If you're going to be derp, better do it early and get it outta the way.

So I was a little amused (and a bit frustrated) that Steel Panthers won't allow me to make a proper scenario that matches the St. Gloriana and Saunders battles. The reason is that the PzKpfw IV D is no longer available after 1942 for some reason, while both the Churchill Mk VIII and the Sherman Firefly can only be in a 1944 or later battle. I would have to mess with the game's OOB files to make it "historically correct" or make do with the IV F or H variants.
Also: that British armor.... Images Ooari Campaign Scenario 2 - Scrimmage vs St. Gloriana Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload? |

Girls & Tanks 06 - The Two-Week Long Match and the Two-Second Long Matches
If Kei is the more benevolent kind of American stereotype, then Arisa/Alisa is definitely the flip side of that. A bit one-dimensional in that almost every line out of her was an egotistical rant, but Aya Hirano clearly had a lot of fun playing the role. (And Kei is kind of the spokesman for the team anyway.) The surprising charity that Maho showed at the end hints that I don't think this feud runs as deep as Saki and Teru's. She's obviously not in "I have no sister" mode, what with acknowledging her sister multiple times. I'm actually sort of looking forward to seeing what happened with Mako. She's normally so deadpan and disinterested that to have something break that is intriguing, but a desperate situation in the family is much more personal and serious than the sport, though I think the show's writers will be able to find a balance such that Mako won't lose her grandmother or her school. I can't see Team the Main Characters advancing with just three people. They need everyone there. |

Finally saw Episode 6. Enjoyed it all. The random thought that occurred to me was that the first-year team did a lot better in this match than they did in both the "learn as you go" school match (where they tried to run away and threw a track) and in the friendly match with St. Gloriana (where they bailed out). This time they held up under fire and got in a few shots of their own. But they still got knocked out. I wonder if they're going to be the goat of a running gag of somehow being disabled in every match, or if they'll manage to get better as they go. |

The firefly was too powerful for the friendly match when the protagonists were even less skilled than they are now.
