Dear mother of christ, SU-152 w/ AP is fucking horrifyingly effective.

Isn't the penetration something like 110mm?
I guess it's useful if you're in a T7 match or something, but unless MM 2.0 really changed everything you probably don't see those really often.
[editline]15th August 2012[/editline]
Oh, it's 135.
That's more than enough to make T29s shit themselves when you hit the hull, but still not enough to reliably penetrate a KT or a T32.

What gun?
I have never understood what "w/" means, please enlighten me.
the second 122 is the SU-152's best gun

152. 135mm of pen with 700 damage. w/ is just shorthand for with.
Also:
Vehicle: SU-152
Experience received: 1,252
Credits received: 48,469
Battle Achievements: Master Gunner, Mastery Badge: "2nd Class"
Looks like I found my new credit grinder.

I find it kind of sad that you can't even name a Russian crew member to Kliment Voroshilov, I mean, the KV was named after him, after all.
You can't type in your own?
[QUOTE=scout1;37245572]the second 122 is the SU-152's best gun[/QUOTE]
The best gun if you want to lose 50 thousand credits every match.

I think they're trying to avoid allowing you to name your crewmen after more or less important figures of regimes who killed a few million folks.

800 more DPM, adequate pen for its tier (as opposed to 135), 0.09 more accuracy.
It's funny because back in the beta when I used the 152 with AP you were laughing at me then. I guess you'll always be a step behind.

I usually make a moderate profit with premium. But I don't worry about the credits, can't compromise tank performance for a few thousand silver.

That's the key word here, I can print money with a T9 if I have premium.
Meanwhile in standard account land I'm losing money every time I look at my M48A1.

...Like that guy that drives a Patton with the tier V howitzer 105mm because it's cheaper?

Or people who drive tier 5 lights with fire extinguishers instead of 5% oil
A PLPLPL IS gets mad when we cap instead of chasing down the last enemy arty and denying him the " team wipeout" xp bonus.

Although you're (probably) forgetting that back in beta armor worked completely differently so it [i]was[/i] kind of dumb to use AP back then.
Also, lovin' that elitism, keep it up.
[QUOTE=scout1;37245851]Or people who drive tier 5 lights with fire extinguishers instead of 5% oil[/QUOTE]
Why use oil when the removed speed governor is both 10% increase and reusable?
[editline]15th August 2012[/editline]
Just gotta be selective as to when you have it enabled.
T25 with maxxed out gun = Zoomzoom headless tankman.

Yeah but that's exclusive to the Glorious Russian tanks (as if other fucking nations didn't have speed governors).
I really nove how the T-54 can keep it on for most of the match but it takes about ~2 minutes for my 212's engine to break.

Why not both?
[QUOTE=MadCatMkII;37245986]Why not both?[/QUOTE]
Because it already goes light speed almost instantaneously already, would rather keep the slots for a medkit and repairs.

Because I cannot properly run it, nor learn its timing on a bunch of different tanks. Plus Russians.

oh yes accuse me of elitism when you take every chance to wave your dick
[QUOTE=ayaki;37245999]Because it already goes light speed almost instantaneously already, would rather keep the slots for a medkit and repairs.[/QUOTE]
It might be worth using a gold repair kit for +10% repair speed, and never activating it. Instead of medkit.
[QUOTE=cccino;37246008]It might be worth using a gold repair kit for +10% repair speed, and never activating it.[/QUOTE]
Some people do it, I personally don't want to risk having to spend 50 gold every time I get tracked out in the open and need to repair instantly.
I'd probably pry out the 6 key so I didn't accidentally hit it. :v:
[QUOTE=scout1;37246003]oh yes accuse me of elitism when you take every chance to wave your dick[/QUOTE]
If you can provide examples, then I'll stop, though I don't really recall. You have to stop treating me like dog shit though too.

It seems our definitions of dickwaving are radically different. Okay though, sure, whatever, if it really upsets you I'll say things in nicer ways.

So apparently there was an M5 variant that had a pointed spade on the front of the tank

Some Chicago cabdriver came up with welding hedgehog pieces in front of a tank to cut down hedges.
