[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;37269577]Get it on Tiger.
Stock KT is pain in anus (whole front of the Porsche turret is a weakspot).
You will need any help you can get.[/QUOTE]
Not that much pain,it is true that the stock turret is such a weakspot but the frontal hull and the 88 is amazing
[QUOTE=Ogopogo;37270288]Its sad, but there are people, even after seeing how well the M48 is doing, who still want the M60 as the tier 10 medium and have the M46 removed, and the M48 moved into its spot.[/QUOTE]
Abrams should be tier 10 medium.

I don't understand why it's doing so well.
It's probably the DPM but the 268 also has a really high DPM but it's not nearly as good. It can't be the armor since every other T10 medium dings just as much if not more. Maybe it's the on-the-move accuracy, even though the T-62A also gets it.
Maybe it's the combination of everything being average as hell with the highest DPM in the game that makes it so kickass.
EU special incoming.

What "list"
I'm pretty sure the M48's size is its only real weakness. Everything else is either only slightly sub par or average.

On the world of tanks forum, there was someone asking why there is often 5+ artillery in tier 10 matches now.
So of course, someone responds with this.
[quote]Why is 5+ Arty in a fight a concern and 5+ Heavies is not? [/quote]
I really hope the British line retains the feel of the Churchill.
[B]High Penetration
High Rate of Fire
Decent Accuracy
Low Alpha/Damage[/B]
I mean, the 17 pounder on the Black Prince is only a 76.2mm. I know they could make Wargayming™ Magic and give it some some stupid 18 or 25 pounder; but I'd much rather see rapid fire cannons.
It's something we really only see right now with the ZiS-4/6 and the guns from the Churchill/Ram-II.
Personally, I fucking love my Churchill because the 2 second reload time literally confuses/annoys the heck out of pub players. Two or three Churchills focusing fire just aggravates a player to death. :v:
[quote=Overlord]General overhaul of the gameplay is of no use, [B]but there are thoughts of increasing the role of armour by tweaking penetration and/or normalization.[/B] But this has to be thoroughly devised. [/quote]
One can hope.

It has the best gun in the game.
I mean, hands down. It's _accurate_ as fuck. 1.7 aiming time is the least ever and 0.36 max accuracy is completely legit. It's DPM is through the fucking roof. The 268mm base penetration is complimented by the fact it is APCR - APCR has bonus normalization over AP - that technically means that you have better penetration against sloped armor than AP would, and I don't know the maths but I dare to say it puts the average penetration of randomly angled target somewhere near to the tier 10 TDs.
It still is more accurate on the move than T-62A and the higher alpha counts, too. It's also better armored, although that's somewhat negated by the gargantuan size (It's significantly bigger than IS-7, holy shit).
Another thing is that in contrast with Patton, it's [I]faster.[/I]
Weaker engine for more weight? Yeah. But you don't see the passing ability values. They are fucking [B]crazy[/B]. The thing loses nigh no speed at all when turning, regardless it's velocity, WHILE STAYING INCREDIBLY ACCURATE. You can zigzag through enemy FOV while peppering them with your own doom.
I think it's a glorious vehicle, and agree it needs SOME nerf, but hope it won't be that hard one.
Oh and to not to forget, it still has the greatest vision range of all vehicles - 420 - with Patton dropping to 410, which is always nice.

17pder on one of the French TD seems to somewhat support this and I suppose they need to give them a higher pen because most of the British tanks at the start and before WWII pretty much had AP rounds with no HE rounds made for them or a higher RoF(Which the 6pder seems to support). I'm very interested in there medium line and cant wait to get the Firefly and Comet tanks, centurion as well seeing it was pretty much the first MBT. Also like the look of the Conqueror for some reason...

God fucking dammit. I was looking forward to shooting a tank and watching it get decrewed instantly.

The British used very large charges on their shells, giving them very high muzzle velocities. It's one reason why the 6 pounder was actually seen as a better AT weapon than the 75mm.

Now with better rendering!
For those wondering about the M3, here is why. Likely as a lead up to the firefly when it comes out.
[quote]The prototype was completed in March 1941 and production models followed with the first British specification tanks in July. The British cast turret included a bustle at the back for the Wireless Set No. 19 radio. It had thicker armour than the U.S. one and removed the U.S. cupola for a simple hatch. Both U.S. and British tanks had thicker armour than first planned. The British design required one fewer crew member than the US version due to the radio in the turret. The U.S. eventually eliminated the full-time radio operator, assigning the task to the driver. The British realized that to meet their requirement for tanks both types would be needed.[/quote]
I want a Cromwell.
Alright... I just got the 8,8cm for my VK 3601, still wondering if I should've saved the exp for the Tiger... whatever. Wonder how it'll compare with the previous, long-ass-and-hella-accurate gun.
m3...grant...
yes...
