Join 9TANK. It looks just as active. Or you can try out GHOME (Go Home Clan), the oldest (since day one of WoT!) and most reliable clan that RWBladewing and I have gotten used to.

...I just wanted to take my WoT username to its logical extreme with an appropriate insignia.

Also Go Home Clan in contemporary times sounds like a tribute to Hoppo-chan.

This might sound weird, but I'm actually doing a little bit better with German tanks than I ever did with other lines (I already got a Tier III, and I think it'll be my grinding tank).

Tiers 1-4 are a clusterfudge of new players in wildly unbalanced tanks and extremely unpredictable strategies (or the lack of it). You're also just starting out so you have far too small a sample size of battles under your belt to make sure of anything. Play a few thousand games in tiers 5-6 (but not above that) and then you'll have a better idea of what you're good at.

95% of tier 1-4 players:

There isn't even anyone left to re-invite you since none of the remaining officers have logged in in months.

I'm not part of GHOME, I stay clanless to be like my idol, Kirito. It's like, no one understands me man. Sachi got clicked by that arty and it was all my fault. It's ok though, at the end of the next campaign, during my climactic battle with the evil villain Garbad, the spirit of SerB will give me access to his account and I will unlock the power of the legendary IS-5 to finally defeat him once and for all.

The T49 derp is probably less accurate than, say, the T92's or CGC's. I haven't seen a gun shoot to the edge of the aiming circle this much since before the accuracy buff.

Hey now i have been shot in the back by those mofo T49 many times already. Tempester, it was fun last night, but did you lose lots of credit or just grinding it to buy shit that's on sale.

Between the T-54 gold spam and FCM 50t battles I just about broke even for credits. But I played a few solo FCM games a few hours later and made around 400k credits.

Broad side of a barn: I came around a corner in Himmelsdorf and had the entire side of a Tortoise in the reticle, except for a little bit at the top and bottom. Of course it misses.

On the bright side, the premium HE has enough of a splash radius that I was able to finish off a damaged Lorr. 40t, that was actually entirely around a corner, by shooting at the ground.

Myssa Rei · 2014-12-20, 02:24

Not shown: An almost 15-game tilt that actually dropped my Object 140's WR to about 25%. Only about recovered somewhat thanks to today's session.

Anyway, replays!

Swamp in the IS6.

Super Pershing at Mountain Pass. Also, man, the rest of the team that WASN'T my platoon...

E75 at Burning Ruinberg.

Mines, where platooning with Servios' sheriff account just puts a huge target on you by proxy.

Object 140 Solopub at Fisherman's bay.

Erlenberg madness in my IS7.

Piling insult upon injury via Obj 140 in Sacred Valley. Yes, it was a cap, but I wanted the win damnit.

Hidden Village.

And finally, gundep abuse at Redshire.

Rokumonsen · 2014-12-20, 06:16

Another noob question: how can I buy HE ammo?

EDIT: ...and what tank should I get, the Pz.III or the Pz.IV-D?

In the service menu, where you also buy your AP ammo (and repair your vehicle and buy consumables). Which shell types you can buy depends on your tank's gun; some can't buy HE.

Rather than that, what you should be thinking is the line from tier 5 onward. Look at where the line leads to. It should save you a lot of wasted effort and frustration.

Also LOL RWB. Have you SEEN your recent stats lately? They're much better than I've ever had in my time in the game.

Pen3 · 2014-12-20, 15:08

I don't think any of my tanks use HE besides Arty. I do have 2 rounds for my big gun TD, but haven't had a real use yet. Seems like whenever i load the HE to finish low off HP tanks, they goes into hiding and i have a useless round loaded.

I disagree. That's just from stat-padding with the PzB2 and KV-220.

Gravitas Free Zone · 2014-12-20, 18:33

Tonight's minor complaint will be this: Players that don't seem too sharp in general who then get themselves WTE-100s with the 150mm. It combines a huge potential amount of team firepower (but in a less-effective package) with a player who can't use it and also will be focus-fired on by every opponent within sight.

Bonus complaint: I saw another M46 with the Tier 5 derp...

Pen3 · 2014-12-21, 17:45

Finally got tired of buggy SLI and decided to upgrade my video card. I ordered the Gigabyte G1 GTX970 along with the EK-FC970 GTX WF3 yesterday.

Myssa Rei · 2014-12-22, 06:49

Less potato by capita, which means I'm almost back to where I was at the start of the week, sheesh.

Because no one pays attention to the Type 61 with the 41% WR.

My E-75... escorted by two T49s.

A rare good game in my King Tiger.

Not exactly holding a flank, but man were those IS-4 and E-100 distracted.

Did well, get knocked out by artillery. GG.

Desu · 2014-12-22, 08:50

After 7500 games I finally unlocked my first tier 10, the object 140. I have only just started playing again but I'm really not enjoying tier 10 all that much. I've played countless tier 10 games as bottom tier so I knew what I was getting into but there are just so many tanks I hate playing against. It probably doesn't help that due to a damaged cable between Australia and Singapore my ping is now 250 instead of low 100's.

Despite all that I'm having loads of fun in the new light tanks even if I end up in tier 10 games just because there is so much you can do even without dishing out much damage. Despite the fun and pretty decent damage/spotting my win rate is rather pathetic.

This pretty much sums up my experience with the bulldog so far with the game only lasting 6 minutes and 26 seconds:
