I thought we were doing both of them, and I already have the one...

But my PzIV is gonna get jealous and go Yuno Gasai on everyone soon.

Cripes people, make up your minds. Decide on a Tier 3 and a Tier 5, and STICK with it.

(Not that I mind about tier 5s, as I have all the iconic ones anyway in my garage)

P.S. On the KV-1S argument. The 122 mm, no question. That thing brings the pain on anything it hits, and I think it encapsulates the Soviet brawling style perfectly: hit hard, dive back into cover, then hit them hard again.

We have two clan tanks because some people are evil racists who hate Soviet 'sub-human' vehicles don't have the resources to go down the Soviet line and also because the PzIII/IV would do well (we think) as a supplement to the T-34, since it has high speed.

So don't fret if you just got the T-34, we are still using it.

The official mascot tank for MuP is based on the MoRi concept (named after the two folks who partitioned Poland), and will now consist both the T-34 and the Pz III/IV.

These are for low-tier company matches we will have. Some have the T-34, some have the III/IV and then others have both.

In higher tier matches, I think we are planning on a combination of the IS and Tiger, or KT & IS-3. Though this combination is difficult at this point due to only few people (such as myself) concentrating on the Soviet line.

But what the hell, I am a proud owner of an IS, IS-3, KT and E-75.

I have the T-34 (it's a FUN tank), and have the IS unlocked, but not bought (1.25 million is expensive for me right now). KT I already have, but as a result (since I moved the crew to it) the Tiger is now crewless.

Kind of iffy on the Pz III/IV, as its best gun is the IV's 75mm.

Well, I'll be able to compare the PzIII/IV and PzIV soon enough, I de-crewed the VK2801 to do it. Because I was getting myself into trouble with the Derp Rocket Sled.

The PzIV is a safer vehicle to drive, simply because it is not as fast and thus protects you from your own stupidity. But technically speaking the III/IV is far better.

I'm always amused by how the Kamikaze achievement can be awarded even by stopping and letting a wounded tank ram you.

Yeah, but it's so much satisfying when your enemy rages because of that. I fact one of my tactics on the 3/4 is always ram the enemy mediums that are about to die

Related to that, i can't forget the day when i got the kamikaze medal when a Tiger tried to ram my KV-3, only to die in the process, and I survived with less than 3% hp (that was back on 7.5).

Yep, I still get a laugh every time I see the Kamikaze award assigned to my KV-1

How do you kill an E-50 with a KV-3?

You switch to Ramming Speed and bodycheck the heck out of it.

(Yes, this was all the way back when the KV-3 was a Tier VI, which is why the Kamikaze for that match is now credited to the T-150 that I've never played. >_> )

I had 4 HEAT rounds, and I used them. I am ashamed, but I can only be ashamed if I am alive.

WHOA! Kimi leaving the British line is something I never imagined would happen!

So, on another note, my performance last night was mixed .. started off great, with a nice streaky 70-80% win rate and then plummeted way way down and ultimately, ended up about flat if not a game or two down. So here are a few "note to self" statements:

1) Multitasking work and gaming usually don't do well -- when I don't pay attention to what the tank composition is before the map loads means I usually do worse
2) Tied to #1, but in general, when I start getting impatient in general (or frustrated), but in particular when I rush between a game and some other task .. ie. "Hurry up and finish this round so I can go work/make-out-with-lady/eat dinner .." it likely means I'll start doing worse
3) When you're in a hot streak in a tank, and you're in the groove, TOP XP in multiple games and winning -- don't suddenly switch tanks cause you're feeling lucky. There's a reason you're doing well, you have a feel for the tank and it's capabilities .. going from KT to Cromwell to Black Prince to Pz4 really messes up your tempo sometimes ..

Oh, and .. THE BRITISH ARE COMING! THE BRITISH ARE COMING!

Archer? I really wanted to see if it would be done backwards.

Edit from poking around on Reddit: The Archer could be the "Self Propelled 17pdr, Valentine, Mk I, Archer." Heh heh.

Well, it is, Tier 4, so if it sucks there won't be much surprise there.
