I hope we meet one day: I need to kill the FV215b to finish British Expert.

Gravitas Free Zone · 2013-02-06, 14:53

Why they couldn't paint the storage boxes the same color as the skirts, I'll never know.

Question to Kimidori: Just how do you manage to get over 60% win rate in 60 games?

Pen3 · 2013-02-06, 16:18

A decent game on AC Mle 1948 for my x2. Super needs prem round just to pen my frontal.

Damn AC .. the stupid little crossbar can only be damaged in the middle and it's so damn thin!

Pen3 · 2013-02-06, 17:09

Its actually fast enough to defend against T59 flank and t59 cant pen my frontal.

Blaat · 2013-02-06, 17:15

Well I bought the IS, I like it so far with the exception of the gun (which is rather weak for its tier). Still I can't wait to get my trusted derp gun back.

I also had this match on my VK 3601 (H)

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

(getting the defender medals gives you an extra 1250 research points)

So now I'm also a proud owner of a Tiger, bloody hell that tank is slow it feels like a KV-1 is more manoeuvrable than a Tiger.

I'm also broke, but then again having a Tiger, IS and T29 next to each other in my garage is pretty awesome.

Tak · 2013-02-06, 17:37

Hmm, a Tiger is actually surprisingly agile. The top speed of 30 is not spectacular, but the turn rate is good enough to zig-zag through small corners, which the KV-1 cannot pull off.

Of course, its nothing compared to the KV-1s, which, at tier 6, can eat a Tiger alive if played correctly.

Don't have a T-29, but do have an IS-3 and a KT side by side

I'm guessing I have to wait until my crew is at 100%, have the last suspension and engine upgrade before I witness the agile Tiger.

Gravitas Free Zone · 2013-02-06, 17:45

Yeah, the engine upgrade is what'll really make it go. Go at 30 KPH, but the engine is strong enough that it can get that 30 KPH reasonably quickly and have it climb things without unreasonably slowing down.

In other news, I never noticed this crewman's first name before. Now I can't unsee it.

And... I'm not planning on keeping the KV-1S after I unlock the IS, but should I stick with the short derp the whole way through, or equip the 85mm? I am going to try to get the long 122 while I'm at the KV-1S also, but... so much more grinding.

Blaat · 2013-02-06, 17:52

Get the 122mm it makes all the difference, and it will save you that 15k grind on the IS.

Gravitas Free Zone · 2013-02-06, 17:55

Well, yes, I was planning on getting the long 122 while at the KV-1S. But what to use in the meantime? The 85 or the short derp, which has a terrible reload time?

Blaat · 2013-02-06, 17:59

Sorry, getting late here. I liked the 85, you can farm lots of research points and money with it. I didn't go for it when I farmed the 122 and I really regret that decision, it would have made life a lot easier.

BTW if you think the short derp has a terrible reload time, you'll be in for a real surprise when you get the 122.

Strigon 13 · 2013-02-06, 18:15

Or you could use the 100mm D10T, it reloads as fast as the 107mm and it has better pen than it, also the shell price is cheap (like 1/5 the price of a 122mm shell). The downside is that it has less damage that the 107mm.

Oh, I've seen the reload figures for the D-2-5T 122. Just a little over four rounds per minute... (I can imagine the havoc of a dead loader and an ammo rack crit.)

I definitely have that in consideration for the IS. I just have to get to the IS first.

So yeah, I think I'll equip the 85mm on the KV-1S.

I hit exactly 3800 free XP earlier, so I unlocked the PzIII with it, for that little MuP plan we have. (Saving another 15000 free XP for the III/IV is possible, but I might as well just drop a disposable crew into the III/IV and bash away at it for a couple of days.)

Kamijou_Touma · 2013-02-06, 18:41

DAMMIT... you guys change the clan tank like a girl buy shoes. I just finished free xping everything on the T-34 dirty russian tank.

Now I need to do the Pz II line again. WTH! Its time for a the Imagine Breaker to work its magic.

Strigon 13 · 2013-02-06, 18:45

What people, are you going for the 3/4 now? it wasn't the T-34 before the clan tank? Oh well...

RRW · 2013-02-06, 18:54

Wait are we still thinking about that thing?
